Yeah Im talkin to you

When I did this video back in October of 2009, I had not planned, nor had I rehearsed any of what I was going to say. The words and expressions I used, the flow and the rhythm; they all came together as I spoke and recorded.I suppose it was born out of my own experiences really.
In hindsight when I watch this over and over again, I am reminded of why this seemed to speak to so many women. It spoke to me.
This person is our friend, she's our sister. She is our cousin and our neighbor. This woman could be our niece or our mother. I don't believe 'she' is the 'every woman' Chaka Khan was referring to.

It's personal....Yeah, I'm talkin to YOU! It's about relationships and cycles of emotion all weaved together and sealed with good intentions, oozing with confusion.
The toxic love relationship satisfies for a time,
The love affair with food satisfies for a time...
Even the nonreciprocating relationships with each other, satisfy for a time,
but ultimately, each one of us really desires and hopes in those things that will bring real and genuine fulfillment. Not temporary moments of affection.

FOLLOWING THE DREAM

There are things that happen in each of our lives that can,if we are in tune with our true being, be life defining moments. Our choices and / or the decisions we make can result in whether or not you or I realize the potential our lives have. What prevents one from walking in the purpose for which they're called?

The answers to these questions may not easily be answered with an absolute Yes or No. I am certain there are reasons you never attempted to be the model you wanted to be. And I'm sure..you probably wouldn't have made it as a professional sports figure.. And yes, nobody would've probably ever purchased your book......            *TIME* *TIME**TIME* An inner still voice ringing out in the distance says....... Follow Your Dream........Follow Your Dream.......

December 31, 2010

Well, it's the last day of the year and what have I accomplished in 2010. What are my highs and what are my memories for my lows. It's a question that usually resonates with me at the close of each year as we pass into the next. Too often I find myself doing the proverbial "Am I making progress or growing" or "Is my life making a difference". These sentiments, as I search my heart and soul, help me to look inside of me. To see the woman I really am - honest and without bias, realizing all my faults, strengths and flaws. You see, truly I look within and I see all those things that really should be addressed...need improvement in...and parts that need a little, oh let's just say, fine-tuning. Fortunately, I don't mind being candid with me, and I can accept personal criticism. However; knowing and applying the changes are not the same thing. In fact, one can be done without ever committing to change. Is this the goal of our reflections? Or do we look
