Women Re-shaping the World!

Yesterday when I logged into my Facebook account one of the first posts that I saw was from cousin Jozelle: "Your period of 'testing' only ends when God's purpose has been accomplished...so if you are still going through it...hold fast, be strong, trusting that the end the Lord has in store is Perfect. Be blessed everyone."

There are few women who want to be everything like their mother's as much as we may admire these women in our lives many of us try our hardest to avoid being too much like them.

Most times we see our mothers as strong women, but we also see them as frail human beings who have made a few mistakes of their own; mistakes in career choices, men, the way they raised us or didn't raise us.  The amount of mistakes we can list I think tells more of our personal development than anything else.

So after years of growing my locks and taking great care in them this idiot from down the road is to turn to me and say I am jealous of his bongo and that my locs "don't have meaning".  Now being who I am I did not call him an idiot to his face but I feel the need to do so now because I don't care to be nice to people with such silly mindsets. I did, however, say to him "You can't tell someone there locks are without meaning; people have locks for different reasons. What is important to you might not be important to someone else" 

I am always amused at how those of us who refer to ourselves as Christians chastise others for wrong doings while committing a wrong as well...lol yes I am judging.

Nothing worth having comes easy, well some things do come easy, so for the most part nothing worth having comes easy lol

We all have our trials those moments when we want to give up because our journey seems only to get harder day after day.

There are two basic definitions of pride one is the satisfaction you get when you have accomplished something and the other has to do with when you think too highly of yourself.

Get your mammies grammed!

 This is hysterical!
Make sure you read the whole thing...

 This is a cute way to send "the message"!
There is a serious message at the end, but
you get to laugh on the way there.
Now go out and have your mammies grammed!

My glass is half full because I figure if I were to go around thinking it were half empty I would always be tracking down that person who drank half my glass, now if I think it is half full then my focus will be on attaining what is needed to make it full.  That's my take on it!

I got up this morning and did numerous searches on how to deal with negative people.  I really was looking for some sort of solution instead I ended with a bunch of suggestions that go 50/50 lol. So, here I am back at square one, but I have learnt that a few of the things I have been trying are wrong (hmm not sure how that works out when the things I can try or only effective SOMETIMES).
