BE POSITIVE AMERICA

As difficult as it may be for some, and yet victorious for others, Barack Obama is indeed our president once again. I don't judge those who may feel as though its not right, or disagree with it. I just ask those to be positive about it for it was all in the plans of our God. Regardless to some if they are still rooting for him to fail so that your conscious is good..It's not what is best for our country. So if you are one of those who hate or dislike that Barack Obama is our President, pray for him and his family. Pray that he does do well in his next term, and that he helps our country become as it was before. Any person wishing that he doesn't is wishing harm on themselves and their love ones. Be Positive America! Insure yourself that its not hate that drive you toward your decision, or a personal decision, or lack of the race card. Ask God to lead our President and building our country to greatness regardless who the person is or what they look like!

VOTE VOTE VOTE

It's a great day today to know that your choice is considered important. I took the time to go and vote early, to avoid the madness today, but I still uphold great value to this day. Many years ago I could not vote because of the color of my skin, and the gender of my sex. To know that I am able to now do something that people who never knew me fought that I could, is gratifying.

A coworker told me that my vote didn't matter because I live in a republican state where only the electoral votes count; therefore I shouldn't waste my time going to vote. I took that so personal, and yet so disrespectful. I responded offensively. I just didn't understand how can a friend or associate tell you something like that... I realize that when a person chooses a religion or a political party to support that its thier own personal choice, but when its drove by hate for the opposite of what they chose is not honest. For example, I have heard people say they hate my pastor; Joel Osteen. How can you hate someone you  don't really know. Your reason are because of how he teaches, or what you feel like is the wrong way of teaching. Is that a real reason to hate someone. Or someone my hate Barack Obama because he didn't fulfull all his promises in four years. Does it really result into hate? or is it something deeper?.

I may be wrong but when an individual find it reasonable to hate someone because they are of a different choice than their own, is fake. I like Barack Obama, I feel that he is a genuine good person. He cares about what he says, and he's honest. I also like Mitt Romney. I think hes a good family man, and strongly believes in what he says he can do. My reasons to vote for Obama is because he has not been able to fulfil his entire plan in four years. But within those years he has done things that has been big to me. Ending one of Americas largest threat of terrorist. He promise to bring our troops home and he did. He made moves to improve our unemployment rate and it helped. His opportunity is not over, he deserves more time. I really wish that Mitt Romney would of waited, for I also feel like he could of done a good job as our president. Butt he couldn't be completely honest in all his attacks or finger pointing. And to feel as though he also thing that I didn't matter as being apart of the other 47%, I found it offensive. But at the same time I don't know why he said that, or why he felt the need to say that. He may have a genuine reason behind it. I don't hate him for it, I just didn't like the comment. Happy Voting Everyone, May in God we Trust to put our finances and future decision maker in God's hands.

What does it mean to me to be Creative...

To be creative to me is to be original, to be individualized. Everyone has their own meaning of being creative. How I take a paint brush to my canvas may be different than the next person. I am free when I create for I am doing what I love to do. I am taking something and making it standout, and or different than those that is like it. To be creative is to flourish something to a meaning of excitement, or draw attention to it. In situations in life, we all become creative without being aware of it. The way you shift your grocery basket down an aisle of customers that also have grocery baskets. The way a mother may match her daughters socks with the bows in her hair, these are all ways of being creative. How to grasp your husband’s attention during a football game, is considered to be creative. The form of being creative to me, is the way a person go about in being notice with oneself or something.

Dating...

Dating, Dating, Dating. If a woman could read a man's mind. I think all women would be in more productive and sensual relationships. I took myself off the dating scene for awhile, and just recently took a nice summer vacation to New York for a weekend and re-evaluated my decision. The men there are so attentive, complimentary, accepting, and very well put together. Meeting as many nice single guys as I did, made me want to get out there and have a good time. Entertain a good conversation every once in awhile and just have some fun. But I get so confused by men behavior.

One minute they're attentive, calling, and texting you on the hour, at times every hour, and all of sudden one day, your phone doesn't light up, ring, nor vibrate! They're un-attentive, disappeared. You then start to replay the last time you spoke or seen him~ Did I say something wrong., maybe I shouldn't of worn that red lip stick. I hope I didn't say something unpleasant or unattractive. You let yourself have a war with yourself, because of lack of common pleasantries of a man is nonexistence.

Women start to question and second guess themselves due to a man's own personal issues he may have in his life. When a males action are in question, and we have no clue as into why his actions have change; a woman will question herself and her own actions.. When in fact ladies it has nothing to do with you. Especially if they're on one minute and off the next. Let's continue to keep our own identity, and not change because of the identity crisis someone else may be experiencing. We fall in love with a person because of who they are, and not who we want them to be.

Therefore lets keep the trail of hearts following behind us, as we are who we are and our personality is for keeps!

It's Been A Minute

Yes it has been awhile. The last time I had the ambition, or creative time for myself or feeling of anything "emotional"; as into write was earlier this year. After a battle for an over price new home, a new car, a transitional; yet-beneficial move, and the absence of my big sister who is now living in another state. I think I'm finally starting to "feel" again. And what other way to do something I love so much, which is to write.

If we live life as it is, by overlooking the lesson; the negative cycle will continue. A cycle of complications, mistakes, wrong turns, and dead ends. Sometimes the lesson is hard to get, and yet when you calm yourself, take the higher road, or even turn the other cheek; there's no way you can miss it. It's there! And what we are suppose to learn or get out of our situations becomes clearer. And our trials come closer to an end.

For me at times its easier for me to preach it, rather than live it. I have learned my lessons and yet still find myself back in similar situations. Well now,yet again; I feel great things for myself. My emotions are on track, my mindset is set, and formatted. I have re-dreamed my dreams, re-set my goals, and re-establish my life. It's been a minute, but its back. We all go through set backs, and if you have a focus, or if you are serious about living right. You'll get back up. As in the words of Donnie Mc Clurkin, we get back up again. Because the further you go, the more you see, and the closer you get to God. We take a minute, break a minute, and long for another... minute.

My very own

One of today's American Dreams is being a homeowner. Every person that I have ever met that owns their own home usually says the same thing... its worth it! But what they forget to mention is the absolute hell you go through in getting one. For the last sixty days or so, give or take.. I have been in the process of buying a home. It has been an absolute roller coaster ride. Sacrifice, Email, Research, Give, Take, and more Sacrifice. I had to take a class on Saturday about the entire process, and as much as I dread going to take an 8 hour class on my day off, it was well worth the time, and money. I learned a great deal about buying a home, about maintaining a great credit score, and basically staying about the hassle.

I don't understand the reason for so much detail and information though.
The digging and prying of your personal life. There should be the take of knowing you can afford it, for an amount of time it is needed it, and a good credit history. The point of knowing why I went to the mall last week, or if I'm single.. which I hate discussing, because the next question following is usually really? Yes really!!! shouldn't matter. Its like going on a first date with someone that's nosey, and ready to move in with you after two cocktails. Many of the people in the class were couples, and those that were there alone, were either married or engaged. I was the only person in the class who was single. It didn't bother me in the beginning, but as I realized how every person had a person to handle this process with them, I felt as though I had so much ahead of me to take on my own. I'm now at the point of wanting to know if I'm closing or not just so that I can get rid of the nerves, and butterflies in my stomach. The stress of knowing or wondering what they are going to ask me for next. Will this be good enough, does my records look good enough, who do I have to go through next in order for this process to be finish and complete.

But with all of that said: The day when my keys are put in my hand, and I finally have a place to call my own, and not anticipate a rent increase every year, will definitely be worth it! A yard my daughter can run free in with our phoebe! A day not wondering when will I have to pack again.... A place of our own.
