We live in a world where the sense of entitlement is “the new black”
Please know that going through life believing that you are due something without doing anything will in fact leave you in a world of blackness….lost…a confused state, if you will. There is no way that you can have anything that is truly yours, if you have not truly worked for it. Even the things that we consider to be small and minute require work.
You want a clean kitchen, but won’t do dishes
You want respect, but don’t give it (or respect yourself)
You want to be loved, but spew hate
You want attention from your mate, but don’t focus on them
You want a job, but won’t stay sober (C~Mone somebody)
You want to lose weight, but won’t work out
You want “good kids”, but don’t communicate with them
You want a good life, but hang with negative people
You want to stop smoking, but your “dude” is the dope man
You want to DO a lot of things, but you never make moves
If you want what is truly DUE you…DO something!
For one to never work for anything but expect everything…is an unrealistic expectation

I tell our children all the time…In everything there are sacrifices that must be made. Do what you have to do, so you can do what you want to do

Ladies and Gentlemen...please read it again. Cute don't keep em! It doesn't! Yes...you are cute...yayyyy you! I am happy for you and wish you all the luck in your future endeavors. Just remember that in any and all relationships, to include the one that you are in with yourself...maintenance is needed. I hear a lot of people speaking on how they are cute and look at what I am. He has a dime piece! That is great...having a nicely wrapped gift and all, it really is. What is in the box though? Is there nice under the cute? Is there a worker under the cute? Is there faithfulness under that pretty packaging? Is there a communicator? Is there a friend? Cute gets you in the door, absolutely! My question is...when all of that beauty fades, whats left? It doesn't matter how pretty you wrap booboo...its still a piece of crap, right?
We just need to think about how we treat one another, is all. Just because you may be "cute" doesn't mean much if the inside is ugly or empty. #justmytakeonthematter

HE did...HE does! We all go through trials. We all go through the '"stresses of life". We have all been dealt some sort of "bad hand" at one time or another. Don't you know that HE had a plan before you had a problem? You go through...we all go through the things that we do for a reason. That reason is to make us better! That reason is to share our testimonies! That reason is to allow your life to serve as a template for what not to do...for lack of saying it nicer.  By no means are we here simply too endure the pains and defeat that this world can dish out to us. We are here to serve HIM! We are here to follow HIS plan. Following HIS plan does not mean there will be no stumbling block, hiccups, hazardous road conditions, or to be candid...people that we want to knock out! It does mean that we will Win! It does mean that HIS plan is going to work! DONT YOU KNOW GOD HAD A PLAN BEFORE YOU HAD A PROBLEM?!?!?

OK...before I "catch it" for this piece...lmbo!! I need you to pay attention to the message in the piece. "I think Im cute" is stamped on the outside. That is what people see. That's is nice and all...but how many of us realize that we are beautiful on the inside? When do you look in the mirror, knowing that others call you an attractive woman...when do you look in the mirror and see someone beautiful looking back at you!?!?!?  It is perfectly fine to think that you are attractive. That is what we all strive for. We all want to "look good". What ever the reason do we get dolled up, pile on make up, put on shoes that kill us, jeans that squeeze us, bras that have wire in them, spanks that are almost suffocating, lol. Look good, that is great! My only question is do you see the beauty within? *drops mic walks off stage*

We must forgive! It frees us! Forgiving does not say "what you did was ok". Forgiveness says "I value me enough to embrace my freedom". We cannot allow others to have that kind of hold on us. When we don't forgive we are harboring hate, injustice, bad feelings, anger, guilt, sorrow, pain...just to name a few emotions. Allowing someone to dictate who you can be is unfair to you! Forgive them...allow your blessings to come. It isn't fair to allow others to block your blessings! Grab your freedom and destiny!!! Thank GOD for forgiveness!!!

If we spend less time judging one another and more time getting educated, making the attempt to understand and love one another...what a world this would be! Think about it...I mean really and truly think about it! Who are we to judge? How does it make you feel when one wrongly judges you? It hurts! Shoot! It hurts a lot when we are properly "judged" when doing wrong! Why then do we consider it ok to judge another? Who are we?!?!?? #justmytakeonthematter

HE Bled on the cross! Without the Sacrifice that Our Savior made...we would not be! Did you notice the SOS? HE died on the cross for our sins. Which of us is deserving of something of that magnitude? When you think about it...how cool is it that the word Bleed...is simply Blessed without SS...blee"SacrificeSavior"d. Maybe its just me...but it makes sense. #justmytakeonthematter

When you are in your work out regiment...training...weight release journey...whatever you would like to call it, there comes times in your transition that you CANNOT get on that scale and remain in that "happy place". Once your body begins to rid itself of "fat" and the muscle building process truly begins...this happens. You will "look and the scale and see fail" DO NOT set yourself up like that!!!!! Wear those pants that you couldn't a few weeks ago. Put on that dress that now fits. Throw on that blouse that is now too big. You cannot let a number dictate your true accomplishments. The fact that you are "gettin it in" while others are on the couch...in a drive through...just have no desire...you are winning! If yawll know like I do...you better wear your size sexy! Not everyone can be a size 2...it may not look good on you! Be your best you. Be what is sexy to you when you look in the mirror naked! Yep, I said it! NAKED...Naked...Naked! lmbo! You are the only one who absolutely has to look at you and like it! Wear your sexy like you paid for it because you did! In the gym, in the yard, in the basement, outside, at the park...You paid for it in sweat! Be your sexy! #justmytakeonthings
