Remember When We Use To...

2020-04-22T14:11:00.001-07:00

Nothing to do-no where to go. No business to go to. Isolation. I'm lucky I have people to be locked down with I love. My daughter and two beautiful grandchildren. Family who call and check on me weekly. It's crazy being a provider/head of household all your life and now have to rely on your adult children and government to help you out. My savings were good for only a month, I usually have at least two months of savings but I dipped into it for small things, thought I had time to replenish. No regrets, it's all good. I at least had that. Some people had nothing. This stimulus the government is sending out is taking time and there is no real guarantee who will get it. Even applying for unemployment no guarantee. People thought of me and sent me links to apply for help. Clients call or text to check on me which is awesome. Then you have the small business loans they are giving out. Guess what you have to qualify for that so there goes that guarantee. Who the hell want loans? Not me, if that is my only rescue for these times I'll take the compounded debt. If I even qualify. It's hard for all us business owners especially us with a specific niche. Cosmetologist, Barbers, Nails, Massage , Bars, clubs, all businesses who have very close contact with people for us to do our job. I figured my business was good for the long haul, robots couldn't do my job lol.

Social distancing not robots has destroyed our life as we know it. I sat for a couple of weeks thinking what could I make? What could I sell because people are working? People are making money. People are able to stay afloat. For them nothing has changed except work and go straight home. For us, no work just stay home. Buy essentials and find stuff to keep you sane. The creative people with means have found a way to stay afloat making mask. Selling products they already had. Selling shirts. Online tutorials. Finding some new skill to make money. I look at them and say good for them they found a way in these troubled times to survive to thrive if only for a limited time. I did find a business I could do. A way I could make some money. I opened a catalog boutique where people could purchase items from my online store. Social distancing not a problem for this business model and still requires interaction from people. It will take time to grow and I'm cool with that.

Being on lockdown takes it's toll on you. There is only so much TV, Netflix, Hulu, streaming services, recorded shows you can watch. I rarely tune in to the propaganda media, that stuff will have you depressed and hopeless. I decided I'd come back to my first love writing and venting. All these thoughts in my head, no clients to talk to, no clients heads to do. No one to coach behind the chair. Cabin fever sets in, I go for 30 minute walks to see what the world looks like. A world that is ever changing right before our eyes. We still don't know what it will look like in coming months or in a year. One day the survivors from this will say, " Remember when we use to?"

I'm already remembering just from February 2020. How about you? I miss ordering food through delivery services like Uber Eats and DoorDash, and people doing me a Favor for a fee. I miss ordering groceries and having them delivered. I was already a home body and didn't go to stores or eateries anymore. That was all by choice not a mandate. I miss looking at my cart for Amazon and choosing when I will order my next thing. I miss having a purpose. Having goals, and incentives. Being self motivated. Having my own money. Paying my own way. Choosing to spend my money on what makes me happy or brings me joy! Even if it was on services that made me lazy lol. I miss traveling every three months. I miss being able to pay ALL my bills. I miss not having to cook! I miss happy hour. I miss great vegan and vegetarian restaurants. I miss Vegan, Reggae, Wine and Beer Fest. I miss pubs and hanging with a few key family members. All those things I miss and more. I know will not be again. Those businesses and events as we know, are going bankrupt. As most of self-employed businesses are.

Present day,No income coming in for most of us. Bank accounts in the negative and growing. Staying positive as I often do. These are trying times and moments of weakness will set in. Wondering where will I and others be in coming months. I shake it off and remember to meditate. Stay focused. Remember my mantras and affirmations. Apply for these "essential" jobs. Raising my vibrations. Slowly returning to blogging which is a great release to throw thoughts out there. Get out my head. Wow You remember when we use to..?

Covid19 The New Normal

2020-04-22T12:20:00.000-07:00

Well how do I start it has been officially 30 days of lock down. I had become a stay at home person for a few years before this virus hit us. A big change because at one point in my life for many years I was a socialite. They have been and will spoon feeding us this lockdown in 30 day increments. People fail to realize that this going to last longer than they think. People are already getting stir crazy with boredom, cabin fever and their money drying up. They already pre-tested most of the scenarios on what the habits and behaviors the masses will go to. They know if not handled properly there will be riots. The plan is to remove the middle class and have two classes rich and really poor. Most of us are going into debt and out livelihoods as we know or known are gone. That's a harsh reality to wake up to. Most of us had a good life, independent life, a happy life, a life that could use some small improvements, but all the same pretty good. We traveled, we ate out, we conversed, and congregated with friends. Had birthday gatherings, clubbing, game parties, maybe that alone drinker at the bar just to get out the house. Now we are in isolation and in home locked down with people we may or may not want to be locked down with. Sad part also is some people are in lock down alone. No one to talk to, to be frustrated with, complain to or just have that close person who is in it with you literally. This is not a time to be alone in this new normal.

We are not even at the point yet of a new normal. Things are going to get worse before they get better. Every day the fear tactics, the constant reporting on local and cable news only feeds into the isolation and doom and gloom. Yes this virus or whatever it is, is real, I too have had some of these symptoms. The mild body aches, the fuzzy brain, not being able to focus, loss of taste and smell, and mild headache. I think being a vegetarian and being an herbalist helped me not be down as some others. I only noticed feeling bad if I happened to eat some cheese. Knowing my body I quickly removed that from my diet, hydrated and took my herbs . It was said early on it was a mucus illness so dairy get the away from me. Now I think dairy has nothing to do with this silent illness. I do believe it was man made and that radiation is playing a big role also. I do believe it is population control. I do believe it is the beginning of mass vaccines and chip implantations to monitor and control the masses. That being said there is nothing much we can do because this has to play out. We will be on lockdown until the agenda they set out is fulfilled. This is bigger than all of us. A few people dying to achieve their goal is worth it. What do we do? What can we do? How do we not get vaccinated? Will they kill the deflectors? Will we be put in camps? Those that deny this vaccine and tracking device will we be denied food, shelter, income, our family, life? We just don't know. Everything is unknown at this time and that's where anxiety sets in.

This time reminds me of every movie I've seen about big brother watching, listening, tracking, monitoring, and telling you/us what are jobs are. Where we can and cannot go. Slave labor in full effect, people working in jobs they would have never picked for themselves. Sterilizations and babies born as miracles in a few years. We now are all those movie in real life. I don't know if you noticed but the cities are redoing streets, laying cables in the ground and putting up more and more towers. All of which alter our DNA and cause us to become sick as well. So second waves of the virus will be to people dying from radiation. Any death right now is labeled covid19 anyway. If you would have told me this would be happening or that this event or moment in time would happen I would have called bullshit. Not during my lifetime!

Mask mandates is where we are now. This illness has been around since Dec.2019 to Feb. 2020. We were all walking around no mask no 6ft distance. Now April to May we are too close to each other and a cloth mask is supposed to protect us? Anything to make the masses feel safe and to add to the fear. This is to say that this illness is therefor airborne. The mask protects you from spreading it to others? If you cough with that cloth mask on you know there will be particles that will escape that mask right? That's neither here nor there I don't have a problem with people wearing mask. I just think If the people who don't want to wear a mask it's their choice so leave them be, pulling them off busses and kicking them out of stores is bit much. You're wearing the mask to protect people from you, so if you got one on you're good. Every day or week a new rule comes up on how this illness transfers. We don't know. These new rules just continue to divide us. What will happen to the peoples mindset when we have electricity power loss on a mass scale, have food shortages and food price increases? No real money in peoples hands. It will further invoke panic and a demand for a vaccine! We are without jobs and the ability to work and provide for ourselves and our families due to not being essential(people keeping states functioning) and stopping the spread of this illness. People will grow tired, frustrated, and depressed because money to save people has conditions, pushing you into debt, becoming a servant to a master to repay said debts! Therefor being two classes RICH or REALY POOR! We're just PUPPETS in the larger scheme of things. Of this now New Normal.

She can use the percentage towards her personal order. I like to give away gifts for my hostess, birthday girl, bride, etc. and I give away gifts for the winners of the games we play. Some consultants give out discounts towards your order, whatever works for you. I know people like gifts, they like to leave with at least something from the party.

Paycation: It's Simple, It's Easy, It's Travel

2014-12-26T18:06:00.000-08:00

Out of all my MLM businesses this was the second cheapest to start. You get a site about your business and you get a travel portal site. Only $99 to start your home based business, which has a commission of 65% on sales from your travel site. This option is for someone who wants to get the commission but doesn't really want to be a travel agent.
The $150 start up has a 75% commission on sales from your travel site and once you pass the Travel Agent Course you will receive your travel agent certificate! This options allows you to get all the money on the table and book travel for friends, and family. Both allow you to take advantage of our AWESOME member trips and AWESOME member benefits. Once you travel often Hotels will recognize you and offer trips for you to come and learn about the many amenities their Hotel has to offer!

When I saw the site I was instantly excited. I hadn't even looked at the opportunity video yet. Once I saw the video that's all of 15 minutes, it was a No Brainer, Sign Me Up! I realize some people think it's too good to be true.
Prove me wrong! Sign up for $99 book a trip on your travel site, get the commission from the travel you just booked, that will be ready by the time you get back from your trip.......I DARE YOU! Even if you only booked on your own site never gave anyone your site name you are literally paying your Self back from Your Own Travel site.....still a no brainer for me. That's getting paid from Hotels, rental cars, cruises, and with the >>> Golden Ticket <<<< plays and sporting events........now that's how travel is So Sexy.
It's a Home Based Business so another bonus is the Tax Write-Off. I've been self-employed all my life and those tax write off's can really save you. Any fellow Entrepreneurs can agree with me.
It's an easy investment for your financial future that will pay you back as soon as you book your first trip on your own travel portal!
Another bonus You add team members and they'll pay your monthly fees. Your monthly fee can be paid from your commission, so now there is no money coming out of your pocket to run your business......again a no brainer. It's a business you can earn as you learn. I am a part of a wonderful team who wants and desires that everyone succeed. We will show you how to build your team! We will show you how to enjoy the member benefits.... save money on travel..make money on travel..........remember it's simple, it's easy, it's travel.
You go and book on Expedia, Travel Zoo, and all the other's, are they sending you a check for the travel you just booked? You just booked a cruise, is there a check waiting on you when you get off that cruise, how about that rental car did you get paid for renting that car? I'm just curious? Still a no brainer. Question over the next 12 months will you and your family take a vacation? Do you book travel online? Do you get 60% paid back to you from the trip? Can you right the trip off on your taxes? Well......?
Let me show you how to make money on travel you, your family, and your friends are going to do anyway

MCA The Double UP

2014-12-26T17:10:00.001-08:00

When I started this business people didn't believe in the double up. the company will pay you double what the person signs up for>>>> $10 they pay you $20, $20 they pay you $40, $40 they pay you $80, they pay you quickly I sign someone up Monday my money hits my bank Friday.
It's a service that pays as long as whomever has the service pays the monthly membership for the service, and you get a percentage of what they pay monthly. For as little as $9.95 which is the lowest coverage fee a person can have peace of mind concerning:
*Roadside Assistance
*Arrest Bonds
*Bail Bonds
*Attorney Fees
*Credit Card Protection
*Discount Card for Prescriptions, Vision and Dental
*Accidental Death
*Travel Assistance
It's too many of you not protected and have to call a friend or family member to come tow and rescue you. The lower payment is a light bill, maybe the cheapest bill you would have to give you peace of mind while driving. For a single mother or a college student this could really be a life saver if you find yourself stranded, or all of a sudden caught up in legal issues.
Of course there is a higher fee with more benefits and a way to get paid for people using the service. The higher payments allow you to benefit from the double up and the percentage from when they pay for the service monthly. The $9.95 gives you peace of mind, the higher ones allow you to get all the benefits of the 9.95, and a percentage of what is paid monthly, all while you are providing security and protection for people you care about. If you need the service check out the link. If you want to partner with me sign up with higher service so you won't leave any money on the table.

*Some have a "JOB" mentality and they will always work for someone else
*Know your audience and know it they can afford to even go into a partnership with you. If they struggle with paying bills and always have to borrow money they are not good business partners.

Bi-Racial Mixed Children/People in America Today

2013-06-04T07:29:00.001-07:00

I was watching a video about Bi-Racial Mixed Children and it touched my heart. I think it's wrong and hard for them to have to decide which parent they want to claim. It all balls down to divisiveness. Why should any child/person have to deny one of their parents? Essentially that is what it is. They are both races not one. The boxes they have people check should be changed. Because the races are now being mixed so much in today's time they should update the boxes for people to choose from. Why should "other" be the only option for you being something else, mixed, bi-racial? Something other than one full blooded race? No one in this world is 100% pure of anything! They should add a box that says mixed or bi-racial. The whole idea of picking out the melting pot of color a person is is disheartening.If I was mixed or bi-racial there is no way I would want to pick one over the other, because I am both my parents. Their mixing together made me who/what I am. My skin color, my hair, and the way I view the world and society has a lot to do with both cultures of my parents. If a person picks Black/ African American, or White, Asian etc.,It then causes the person to omit, deny, and not have a value towards the parent they are excluding. Why not be able to include both parents in your selection because in all actuality the person is both of the parents, both races. We need to join together and get some boxes added to applications. I am shocked as to why no one is fighting to change these boxes and or add these boxes to applications, forms, questionnaires, etc.!

Cyber Bullies

2013-02-05T07:10:00.001-08:00

We are living in a global hater, fault finding, finger pointing time right now. We took a shift somewhere towards a global negativity.
As I look at Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter and see so many hateful things people say on images, pages, timelines, and even groups it saddens me a little. No one is free because we are all on the same playing field so to speak. At one time celebrities where untouchable, now all you have to do is go to a page, link, image, timeline and say what the hell you feel, good or bad. No one is safe from these times.
The lady/man next door. The child down the street. Anyone can freely write on your pages with their mean-ugly-negative-comments. Some are more polite and don't post on your page or image, and believe me they are still talking about you to their friends about how much of a "fail" you and your picture is. There's nothing anyone can do about this.

As I look at timelines on Twitter, images on Instagram and read the things people say, and the things people tell other people in these Facebook groups, I am thrown aback. Looking at what the world has come to- how-when- did this shift come? How long is it going to be here?
The New Norm... is it "social media bullying"? Stars/Celebrities/Common Folk can only sit back and take it. I can't believe half the things I've read on celebrity images and timelines. Ex: A pretty girl in a picture, she is smiling, hair together, clothes together it appears to be a nice picture. Here we go social media bullies: "Bitch you ain't cute" "Where you get that shirt garage sale" "Those shoes are fake" "I bet that's a man" "You should die cause you really ugly". The list goes on, so much so I don't even "like" the picture so not to be a part of the negativity on it. Some people only follow people to talk about them. To hate on them. For celebrities they have gone through this struggle for a long time and have built some tough skin. Now that everything and everyone is equal and on the same playing field "Social Media" wise the hate has increased globally. There are no censors. We the public can reach out and touch anyone/everyone with a click of a mouse or touch pad. Speak whatever we feel about them good, bad,and even the ugly. We don't even think about how it may hurt someone.
Will we switch back or will we move even forward with this new norm of global hate-negativity-fault finding-finger pointing-social media bullies? I do commend those who keep their heads up in-spite of and continue to do the good positive things they were put on this earth to do. We as a people have learned to have an even tougher skin in these changing times of hurtful words and rumors.
Anyone who has received those negative comments and tweets, remember it is only a reflection of the shift in the Universe. For these now are the times we are living in. Everyone is a critic and judge now a days. For these are the times, sad as it is, it is the new reality... until we can some how create a new shift of global thinking and behavior.....hopefully a change will come sooner than later...for now....may you walk in love....in light....in peace.......

Vision/Action Boards

2013-01-29T15:20:00.000-08:00

Have you read the "Secret" or the "Power"? No, well no worries. If you have read the two following books this simple exercise will help bring your vision and dreams to life. Get you some card/poster board the one's used for children for projects. Get a couple of magazines and or print some images from google. You will need scissors, glue and or tape. Use as many boards as you deem necessary for your visions. Maybe a board for your future home, a board for your next office/ business. A board about yourself, where do you see yourself in 6 months to a year. Board for a wedding /engagement etc. Cut your pictures out, organize them in bunches for each board and start designing your board. I like to add titles to each board. Put your boards where you can see them daily to motivate and encourage you to get things moving towards your goals. what if you no longer desire what you put on your board?
Sometimes our goals change in the midst of what we first desired for ourselves, if that is the case, take that board down and start a new one with new goals and ideas. These vision boards keep you focused, encouraged, and motivated. You can even make it a family project and the whole house can make up boards for short term goals. It's a fun project that creates hope and a process that allows one to become in the habit of setting and reaching goals in their life, home, work, and with self. There also has to be an action to your dreams/vision, you can't just post the pictures and just expect things to just happen,there must be steps you take to make the dream/vision a reality.
The Secret tells you to speak things into existence and the Power is sending love to all you desire. So speak it, post it to your board and send love to your desires daily as you make things happen. Hopefully Vision/Action Boards will always be a part of your life, as you grow, you get in the practice of setting and reaching new goals forever.
Feel free to send me your completed vision boards, I would love to see/share them.

Virtuous

2012-12-16T10:03:00.000-08:00

What is the meaning of Virtue: Strength, Courage, Bravery, Value, Merit, Integrity of Character(doing the right thing no matter what),Purity of Soul, Excellence, Kindness,Honesty, Service, Respectful, Forgiving, Positive Character,Principles, and Living with a Purpose.

We are often reminded or only think of being Virtuous as it pertains to the Woman in the bible: who is early to rise, wise, well dressed, works hard, and is a provider for her family. Any person can be virtuous. A man can be virtuous because it is a state of mind, a practice of the heart, a state of being, it is a characteristic that anyone can adopt. The essence of a person who has principles of love, honesty, hard work, a kind open heart, and has much value in themselves. For they are aware of their value, as well as adding value to their partner and family. They also add value to organizations and their community. They are givers. They are positive people. Most of all they influence, motivate, and encourage others to do better,to achieve excellence. They go above and beyond what others may do. They are brave, bold, and stand apart from others. They have a light that shines. They are those that volunteer and know the importance of service to others.
When you know your value you do not settle for mediocrity. You know you are the cream of the crop. You demand respect because you respect yourself. You will not allow others to put you down or make you feel less than. You treat people how you want to be treated. In fact people will recognize your virtue and treat you accordingly. A virtuous person does not judge others for their short comings. We should all strive to be of virtue to ourselves, others, and our family.
Know your value, and to thine own self be true. Do not be afraid of who and what you are! You are made by the Most High! The Creator who does not make junk. Embrace your greatness. Define what your moral compass is and stick to it. Remember what others believe in does not have to be your belief system. We can all strive to be Virtuous.

4.Lying For A Living: A Short story that focuses on cheating, and lies to cover up cheating. It touches on women who believe in love so much that they seem to loose their intellect/common sense and deal with the b.s. in hopes that the man will change and choose them. The only real answer is to love yourself and leave the lying cheating man. Heal, find and reconnect to your worth. It's a quick fun read that both men and women enjoy.
5.Change Your Mind Change Your Life: A Self-Development Book, Finding your True Self. Good nuggets on prayers to break strong holds. Meditation and ways to get rid of the baggage that has been holding you down. Getting rid of belief systems that no longer work for you. Who Are You and What Do YOU now Believe in. Are you centered and how can you find that center.

Co-Hosting At Texas101Jams

2012-11-18T10:11:00.000-08:00

My experience with Live Streaming Radio VS. BlogTalk radio is exciting. Being a Co-Host is different for me because I am always the leader of things and the owner of things. Co-Hosting is fun because you don't have to worry about hardly anything you guys are meant to bounce off of each other and present different points of views all the time. If you are the only host, then most of the views will be one sided. Of course it will be the Host's view. Chemistry is so Important when you are looking for a Co-Host.
I am a script, by the book, notes, checks, and balance type of person. My radio station Under The Influence with S. Lynn Bryant is calm, layed back and relaxed as myself. We do have a few rowdy guest from time to time , which makes great radio. My show covers topics from whom ever I am interviewing at the time. I have a set of questions, they answer, we have call in guest, as well as those who can call in and ask my guest questions. Most interviews are done over the phone. There is no face to face interaction. The session can go from 15 minutes up to 2 hours, and are archived as you can see and listen to on this blog. I love what I do on my show. I really enjoy the many people I have been blessed to meet over my year in blogtalk radio. I look forward to many more interviews and many more outstanding wonderful guest. Guest who sometimes, after the interview, have motivated, and inspired me with their story and background. I am and have been looking for a Co-Host for my show. Someone dedicated to it, who can schedule this into their life. Who enjoy meeting people and helping them share their story. Working with Live Streaming Radio brings a different dynamic.
Co-Hosting at Texas101Jams there is no script, no boxes, no cookie cutter format. It is off the fly, uncensored fun. It is an experience I feel I needed to get out of always having to have a script, a note pad, to think, act, and react quickly. This experience has taught me to Turn On at the flip of a switch, or push of a button. At this radio station I have had the pleasure of meeting different people. People I feel I would not have met anywhere else. The DJ's that I have met have special personalities and their own Brand. These people just light up when the "On The Air" button comes on. They know how to Turn It UP. There is a lot going on with Texas101Jams and a buzz is starting about this station and it's radio personalities!As they say there is something about a name. This man named himself "GoGetta" and he is surrounded by nothing but "Brands" that are nothing but "GoGetters". Every DJ has his/her own slot or block on this station. Each one does interviews of artist, rappers, fashion designers, models, etc. There is a small interview fee. I am there on Monday's and Wednesday's with Mr.GoGetta 9am-12pm. We call it the Mid-Morning show. Be on the look out for showcases, youtube videos, twitter,and facebook, go to the site, join the site if you like don't forget to download the app, same name, texas101jams
As Mr.GoGetta says, "The Radio Station is for Everyone, but each Show is not." Here is a list of some of the shows and DJ's at Texas101Jams:

Observation Gloves & Sanitation

2012-07-12T23:34:00.000-07:00

A little observation of the professionals and their gloves. Case in point Dental Office. The dental assistant puts on his/her gloves. They touch the computer to pull up your file so they can take X-rays. They touch the keyboard, they touch the mouse, get all the slides up. Then they touch the protective vest and put that around you. They prepare the tools that will go in your mouth to get all the digital images of your teeth. Yeah all the items going in your mouth have protective covering. Did they touch those coverings with the same gloves that they touched everything with? They leave go to a room and hit the X-ray button. Same gloves. Touch the computer, touch the mouse, and repeat the process for all the X-rays. Never once changing those gloves that have touched everything. The only one safe from germs and transfer is the person wearing the gloves who have touched everything in that examination room. Should they take the gloves off touch all the equipment, put the gloves back on, put on a new glove each time? What do you think. Just observe the next time you go to the dentist.
Observation at Fast Food Places. People complain they want people to wear gloves when they are preparing their food. Have you watched everything they touched with those gloves on. The microwave, drawers, the bottles, and the fixings. Some of them do not remove the gloves after each food order they have to prepare. Talk about germs. They need to change gloves for each process, they should not be touching a microwave or anything that a number of people have touched then touch your food. What do you think?
Another observation, Chefs with that towel they wear on their side. That is a dirty towel. You are aware that they clean the plate off with this rag, they wipe their hands on this rag all day. That poor rag sometimes is with them from the start of the day until the end. All the germs on that towel is on your pretty presentable plate. I have a client that's a chef and I presented the case to him. He was taken aback because he never thought of his trusty towel as being dirty. Just some simple observations. What do you think?
As I tell my children, and others who complain about gloves, cleanliness, and sanitation, all you can do is pray over your food, and everything else you depend on others for sanitation safety. Some people really think they are being clean and sanitary with these gloves. Take time to observe at the next place you eat, dental, or medical facility.

Your Past Does Not Define You

2012-06-03T09:49:00.001-07:00

In some yoga classes or retreats we have soul sharing moments. Today I am led to have one of those moments with whom ever takes the time to read this. I'm not sure who this will help, someone needs to know that their past does not define them, and you can over come what ever trials you have gone through. It starts with sharing, letting go and forgiveness. Here it goes, At the young age of 5 I was molested by my mother's boyfriend. I think It went on for a year, some things are fuzzy cause the mind tries to protect itself. I told guys I dated but only came clean to my mom at 25. I took steps, therapy, and of course forgave all the parties involved years ago. Some family members, friends, and associates are finding this out by and by. Now what happens is the Universe sends people my way who have all been molested by someone in their youth. There begins the soul share. I in-turn have to help them over come that burden they picked up and should not have had to do. Then I went to a stage where I did not feel wanted by my mother, and the anger of her letting me stay with my attacker as she left for work every day. I am also meeting many of those people often. I again tell them about forgiveness and let them know things change and you can have a great relationship after all the clutter is gone. See my mom now is my biggest fan, biggest supporter, and will kick your butt for me. You have to understand that the decisions people make have to deal with their upbringing and thought patterns. Some people feel they are doing the best they can do under what ever circumstances they are dealt, and with the knowledge they know how to deal with. There are steps to healing and you can be healed.

I was almost date rapped by a boyfriend at a young age. He told me we were going to help someone move and took me to an empty apartment where he began to try to rape me, I almost broke his business off, and I really tried to. He did not follow through and took me back home. Forgiveness. I was in a verbal abusive relationship, a physical abuse relationship for four years. The whole time trying to figure out how in the hell will I get out of this. I was terrified of this man, it's sad to say, one day the only way I could see out was to kill myself. It's funny, because I do not like taking pills, but that did not stop me. I took a boat load of pills and waited to die. A knock came at my door. It was my Aunt. She just showed up out the blue. I'm talking to myself, "Why is she here I'm trying to die over here?" She had food and wanted her hair done. I was moving slow and slipping in and out. She got me moving, eating, drinking, and I did her hair. I realized after she left, God sent her to me. I said oh well I guess I have to find another way out. I took back the control and left. I told myself I'm not going to take anymore, he's going to have to kill me. I packed a bag, waited for my ride, I left everything I owned. I started over. You can do it, you have to stand up for yourself. I forgave him also.
I had an opportunity to experience depression for about six months. I say opportunity, because I heard people talk about it, could never relate. That thing is not joke. I am so very thankful it was only six months. To not want to get out of bed, go anywhere, be around people, just sad, just to be sad, not a wonderful feeling at all. I had experienced it so I could help people. So when I hear someone complain about a family member sleeping and despondent, I can say, "Yeah they're depressed, this is what you need to do."
Most of my clients hear these stories when they share, at the moment they think they are the only ones going through it. They hear my story and go wow she got out, she got through, she did it. And for those that know me, I'm silly, so yeah I share and be all animated, they feel the share, we may cry together, then we laugh and they can face another day. There is hope, there is light at the end of the tunnel. I use to wonder why I was hit with so many afflictions, so many pains, so many trials and tribulations, and when that person comes and lay that heavy load, and I let them see/hear that it's ok, you will survive, your past does not make you, or define you. It helps you be a witness and a testimony of how good God really is. How can you share, feel, or help someone if you do not know? It's second nature now, I quickly share. I just say "Ok God, what do I tell them?" So I hope that this helps one person, You can do it, what ever happened in your past, even if your past was yesterday, Pray about it, tell a friend, tell a family member, tell a therapist. I smile cause I am not my past, my past has created me, I am blessed to be a blessing and so can you.
Heavenly Father, Please heal whom ever took the time to read this, You know their affliction, pain, suffering, trials, and worries, take their burdens, and allow them to forgive others as well as themselves. Thank you, Amen

Writing that First Book

2012-05-08T21:32:00.001-07:00

I get a lot of questions about book writing. My response had been just write. Not everyone's thoughts are like mine, nor do they think as I do, so then how can they just sit down and start writing with no foundation? Everyone has some kind of method, if you have not written anything, then the advice I give is of no substance to you. I later had an "aha" moment and said I need to be more clear and transparent to and for some of the people asking, for I do not desire to discourage any one from fulfilling a dream of becoming a published Author, or telling their story.
The first order of business is to decide what it is you desire to write. Will it be fiction, non-fiction, biography, autobiography. If it is non-fiction meaning a true story but not about yourself, then you will need to get permission from those you will be writing about, mainly because you will be using their names and actual events in their lives. If your work is biography or autobiography about someones life or your own, the same rules apply. You will have to secure documentation for them to sign giving you the go-ahead to write about them. Some people are happy that you are writing about yourself and are willing to allow you to use certain parts of their lives to add to your story. They may require to read your manuscript before you decide to publish to make sure they agree with your depiction of them. Get it all in writing. Now that you have the business part out of the way, the first thing to do is outline. Outline the steps of how your story will go: birth to now, teenager to now, etc. Write it all down. Then you need a timeline. Years chronicled, what music, food, TV shows were on, how was your hair, that's for every year you will be discussing to present. It's a lot of pre- writing before the actual writing takes place. In case you forgot, luckily the internet has all those timelines at your disposal. You may go through several drafts before you find your voice. Once you find your writing voice it should flow freely. Will it be a narrative, 1st, 2nd, or 3rd person telling the story? You need to know that also. Many people say in order to write a book you must read a lot of books. Find an Author whose style you like and copy the style.
If it is fiction, your imagination is all you need. You need no permissions from anyone, no sign offs!! You will need to do an outline of what your story will be about. You need to make a timeline. You need to see if it will be narrative or 1st,2nd,3rd person. You need to decide what music you will have your characters listen to. How will they dress? What will they watch on TV, cable, internet, etc. What type of characters will they be? If you have an idea for a character trait and can't pin point how you should write the character, guess what I'm sure you happen to know someone with the personality that you want to write about, watch that person. Pay attention to how they move their lips, eyes, everything about them. Use that to build your character. Most writers are voyeurs. We watch every one and everything. Pay attention to scents, dew on the grass, the world is your story, use it.If you get into a funk or reach a block and just can't figure out what to do with your character, step away and go watch some people. Don't stare just casually observe people, I'm sure you will get some motivation. Character names can come from many sources, colors, street names, baby name book, food, zodiacs, states, or cities{example: Dowling, Sapphire, Leo, Aqua, Black, Blue,Scorpio, Mango,Chicago, NY, Amethyst, Red}. It's your story have fun with it. Create. Create. There must be a struggle, obstacle,an enemy, real or imagined by your character(s), and an ending where they found a solution to their problem. Now, after you figured all that out.......you can just write.
Once you have written your piece of work that you love so much, the necessary sign offs you received them all, you received a lot of positive feed back, you're feeling great. Great! Job Well Done! Congratulations!!! Now it's time to send it to an editor. Once you hand it over, get your mind right, because the editor is about to tear your beautiful work a new one. Don't take it personal, the first ever edit hurts the most, after you guys go back and forth it's less painful. They have to make sure it flows. Now be careful of those that try to change your whole story line, you can fire them. Once the edits are complete it's time to send your manuscript to a publisher. You can shop it around to big publishing houses and see who bites, and you can self publish and go through many online self publishing companies, The big publishing comapnies may decline your work and will not return your manuscript. Unless you include a return address envelope. Oh Yeah and before you let anyone read your work; your editor, family and or friends, please copyright your body of work. No one sees it until you paid the money. It takes a while before you get the actual copyright form but it is documented when you send the payment. I recommend online.
I hope that this has helped those seeking my assistance, happy writing and much success to you

Thank You

2012-03-27T06:21:00.000-07:00

I want to thank everyone inquiring about the TV show The People's Pulse. I told you guys it would air certain days and times. That is out of my control. I have no broadcasting skills nor any formal training in television and do not know how operations work. I do know about deadlines and getting things done when they are supposed to. What I do know is people have a voice and want to be heard. I enjoy meeting new people and enjoy hearing their stories. They inspire me. I know that I have a purpose in life and will use any vehicle God/Universe presents to me. In front of the camera I am a nervous wreck but I push through because I know about pushing past comfort zones. It may be hard to believe, in certain venues and arenas I am shy. People say wow not you. Yes, me. I push through and show up. I have been told in many of my organizations that just showing up makes a difference. So I do. I try to show up at the events I'm invited to by people to show support for their cause or celebration, now I cannot attend all because so many or on the same day. My intentions are pure. Many an interview with the station I nut up and forget everything, it's so funny, it's also frustrating to myself and the station owner, but he still gives me opportunity after opportunity. I know with many attempts I will become a natural in front of the camera. I am also learning about transparencies, and how I need to be more transparent. My apologies at this time, I am not sure when this show will air and if it ever will. Thanks for the guest who came out and who were on the show, thanks to future guest that were to be on upcoming shows, my apologies to you as well. My word is usually my word, and if I cannot do something, or if things are being altered, changed, or cancelled I try to to inform as soon as possible. Thanks again for taking an interest in the show. There are so many contacting me to be on the show, to share their info, ideas, etc. As well as people trying to help me find a location to shoot the show on a regular basis. It will happen, timing is everything. Once again.....thank you

The Law of Attraction

2012-02-26T17:29:00.000-08:00

I now think about Oprah and how some people think she sold out. Who did she sell out to, to whom does she belong, does she deny her race? The truth of the matter, in my opinion of course, is that Oprah thinks a certain way, as well as other well to do people. She thinks and feels a certain way and therefor people who think as she does are drawn to her and she them. It's like a a magnet, a human-magnet to be exact.They are naturally pulled to one another. One attracts who and what they are. So the more opened minded, the more vision driven, goal oriented, enjoying life people will migrate to one another. If you are a nothing happens for me, I don't have money, use words like can't, don't, but, always, and never, you will be magnetized and attract to one another. Race, culture has nothing to do with it, it is a mind set. She, as well as others, did not sell out, they are on different frequencies, different mind sets. The Law of Attraction is simple, all it takes is turning on that switch to change your mind and get rid of preconceived ideas and some idiosyncrasies. Learn the Law's of money, attraction, forgiveness, love, The Universe, gratefulness, and reciprocity. It's simple....sit back and thankfully watch the Law's change your life.

Private Singles Club

2012-02-24T23:48:00.001-08:00

OMG! I had a blast tonight! I had been bored with places, because the same people are at the same clubs every night doing the same things. I grew bored with all the line dances. Don't get me wrong I enjoy watching them, but after 3, I am ready to dance. What happen to free style dancing! Why must I be in an organized dance routine all the time. I know of 5, and there are new ones everyday. Hey different strokes for different folks. Then I came up with the problem of finding new places to go. So guess what? I joined a private singles club. Nothing but singles! Awesome! Now some people may be there in their life, some may not be in that place where they desire to mingle alongside singles. When you are invited to a lot of couple stuff, there are only a few singles, that too, becomes boring. Again don't get me wrong I am so happy for all you couples and married folk! I am also glad the spouses like and trust me, You can still invite me to your events. I may just put a limit on it. And by all means if I invite you to something I am having your spouses are surely welcome. So it's not about that. Singles need a place to mingle. That's why they have the singles functions at church for people. So most of the people in the club feel the same as I, so we already share a similar interest. Now as usual, with anything I have been joining lately, I am maybe one or number 3 of black people. The yoga I chose one or two blacks, this event one or two blacks. I guess what I'm saying is some of us need to reach out of our comfort zones and adventure out into the unknown. Try something different. Now as they say, insanity is doing the same thing over and over and wanting different results. Break away from your routine. I'm glad I joined, I am meeting new people, people I would have never met,and going places I would have never gone. I am very thankful and encourage you to try something new. Start small and work your way up, camping, ice skating, rock climbing, etc. Make a things to do this year list! The club is Events and Adventures

Whole Foods and Being a Vegetarian

2012-01-08T08:51:00.000-08:00

I hear a lot of people say whole foods or organic foods are expensive. Guess what, I use to think the same thing. The problem is we have been so use to buying things in bulk and that has become expensive. In reality all food items have gone up. What we paid for bread and milk has tripled. I am blown away at times when I see grocery store prices. So if I am going to pay a high price, I'd rather pay for something that is at the least a healthier alternative for my hard earned money. I am now a vegetarian. I started out pescatarian for two weeks before I made the decision. Pescatarian's have the same diet as a vegetarian but they still eat fish/seafood. Ok, Back to whole foods, if you are new to vegetarianism or just want to know more, vegetables that are not under heavy preservatives only last 7 days after you open or cut. Honestly, I think all vegetables should be only good for seven days. So there is no need to buy in bulk. I usually buy two weeks worth of fresh vegetables. I don't buy can vegetables anymore, that alone will cut your grocery bill in half. Not buying meat will add another cut to your bill. So I save a lot of money going vegetarian. I did ask God/Universe to help with money to be able to transition into this lifestyle. It's funny because people don't think to ask God to help them buy groceries. Ask and He will help you acquire the money to make your purchases. Beans and nuts at whole foods have to be weighed so you can get beans and nuts for a good price and depending on how many you are feeding you will have more than enough. You really should think about how you will cook weekly. Cooking fresh daily just enough for two days, You will waste less. I hardly have anything to throw away now. I have been recycling since last year so now the only difference is, instead of my trash getting full of wasted food, my recycle bin is growing. I have to now make more frequent trips to the recycle places. Then there is the issue that all the food there cannot be all organic and pesticide free because how can they make so much of it? I'm not sure and that is a good question, How are they producing such large quantities of healthy food and have plentiful amount to supply a multitude of stores? Not sure, all I know and feel is that they are giving me an option to eat a less toxic food item. The energy in places where people have chosen a healthy alternative is just different from those who just live to eat, verses those who eat to live! This is not a ploy to get people to turn to a vegetarian lifestyle, but to open some eyes to the community of people who have been doing this before me, after me and so on. It's a world I didn't know existed until now and I just wanted to share my experience with you. I have played with organic food off and on for a couple of years, as I said before I thought too back then that I could not afford it. Taking meat out of your diet some how gives you an inner peace I cannot explain. I like whole foods or any place that cares about our environment and nature. People say also "you will loose weight eating all those vegetables"....ha-ha-ha.... well guess what...... I gained weight! All those beans, starches, protein tofu, and bread....shaking my head....now I have to stay in the gym. I will do a video blog showing you guys some of the things I purchase at the stores. I like Randall's also. They have organic food and I love the discount card it cuts my bill in half every time. Vegetarian Cooking For Everyone (Google Affiliate Ad)
