Super Sensitive Scary Freaked Out.


It has occurred to me that we are creating a generation of "fraidy" cats. I mean scared parents who give birth to horrified children. At sporting events, I now hear winner and almost winner???? What exactly, is that? that's like a almost job, almost husband, almost successful. It makes no sense. Because you didn't win, does not make the person a loser in life. They just lost that battle, the war is still ongoing, and the goal should be to win the war. I get parents who want a ribbon because there kids participated...what? Maybe it's because I'm getting older and I'm now working with some of these helpless children as young adults and I worry about their ability to thrive, they fall apart, they are sniveling and unable to progress. No, we need to encourage strength, not meaness, determination, we need to boost and help them to be better and let them know you don't win all the time, but you work on the mistakes and do better each time. Could it be too many parents are living through their children's dreams. I believe sometimes those parents see their chance to make it through their kids, i don't know too much reality tv maybe? But it's not too late. I sing, I longed to replace Lola Falana in Vegas as a young girl. I was a church singing, song writing, music loving youth, teen, adult. One day.. love, marriage and kids, I chose my family, regrets..somedays, but i am happy with my choice. My kids are musical, and creative, I push, I help, but I can't live through them. If I still have that performance bug, there are places I could go and belt a song or two out and live...MY dream, but I can't shove them into their dream, they must chose and find their own direction, in order to be self sufficient. I think alot of the parents need to find their adventure and live it and stop living your life through your child or children. Be free! Be fearless! mostly Be happy.

The Aftermath of a Incident of Pain

Okay, he shot the boy, we know it, but I never felt he would be convicted, for many reasons. I pray the family finds peace. I pray the shooter finds the courage to tell the truth at some point in his existence. While people are saying ohhh he was a terrible child I heard he smoked weed, he cussed, he blah blah blah. The bible tells us not to judge. None of these so called supporters of the shooter are perfect or have perfect kids, don't believe me check out your kids, twitter, facebook, instagram etc..., they are kids they vent, this is their virtual diary. Wrong however is wrong, but the jury of his peers found him not guilty...so there you have it. I know God sits up high and looks down low and hears and sees all, including the dirty deeds. So we as beautiful black people have further validation, that color still matters...duh. We need to focus on loving each other more. We need to stop the violence in our own neighborhoods, we need to watch and protect each other. I&

Surprises

The thing about surprises is that you still need to be prepared to handle the suprise. I received a unexpected surprise that I longed for, so I at this moment should be blissfully stupid from love and being loved. Nope, instead, I am doing the same thing I do every weekend...karate,kids,dinner, t.v. So I had wanted to know what was up and waited patiently, my answer has been given to me.........SUPRISE!

IT WAS A GOOD WEEKEND

This was a good weekend, summer fun fest, bbq cook out and games for all, the only thing missing was ...you know, but as long as I avoid sad songs and sappy movies, I should be okay, my legs hurt, my accupressure gal says it's cause I'm worried about a man, could be, yea it is. It's been a while. Meanwhile back at the ranch I'm resisting temptation to call an ex, or get involved with the next. I'm giving me some me time, trying create a new career for me, that pays well, I'm good at what I do and somewhere somebody will pay me well for it, then I can get some new digs to live in and watch my babies grow well. So I've outlined my goals and other than a good dye job to my hair and keep exercising to avoid the broken heart= fatty food syndrome, I plan to meditate with God, and do what I always do..keep movin.
