Advice

      Have you ever told a friend about a horrible situation in your relationship? Has the answer ever seemed harsh? Many women give each other advice. It's interesting that women tend to be so quick to give out instruction that they are not following. This is why you should listen with caution. Analyze the information. Chew the meat and spit out the bones. Reacting quickly based off a third party is not wise. Two people are in a relationship, not three. Friends should encourage, correct, support, and listen of friends. They shouldn't bash each others mates. Words can be hurtful. Keep this in mind when you give advice to your friend.





Vote or Shut Up

It amazes me how we will beat someone in the head for a big ticket item on black friday, but we complain about a line for voting. Where are our priorities? Think about the two separate fights for voting. One for blacks in general and one for women. Both of these fights together enabled me to stand in line and cast my ballot. When I vote, I do it for my brother who can't because of legal reasons, I do it for my unborn child who needs a brighter future, and lastly I do it for me. The one time my opinion matters i will voice it.

Español is the new Ingles

Do you know only one language? If you said yes, you are not prepared for the working world. The melting pot known as America is simmering some bilingual brew. Guess what? The bilingual aliens, immigrants, migrants, and citizens are valuable players in this economy. They can speak to the thousands of Latinos and Latinas who are buying goods and services. Their buying power is just as good as their work ethic. The idea that if you want to live in America you have to speak the English language is antiquated. Every product we purchase has the directions, ingredients, and warranties in Spanish as well as English. Learning a working knowledge of this language will help you tremendously.

Amen !

A word that means it is so and so be it. This word is said after we pray as to show a sign of approval. It seals the prayer. How many people actually apply the literal meaning of the word to their situation in a positive manner? Fix your minds on true, pure, thoughts for your destiny. That destiny could be a peaceful life. That destiny can be a long awaited job. "It is so" is a great stamp on everything you want delivered to you and for everything you need to be delivered from. God has spoken and we say amen!

Friday Forecast (Weather the Storm)

In the aftermath of category 1 hurricane sandy, the east coast in particular New Jersey and New York are still without power and resources. Seeing people on the news saying they feel the government has forgotten about them makes me remember Katrina. People said that Bush didn't care about black people. However, now it's white people on television in despair. My sentiments are the government is not prepared for natural catastrophes in certain areas. So that means that we have to care for each other! Find out how you can help the Red Cross for New York and New Jersey. After all, it's only but by grace that we were not consumed from this storm.
