More than a woman

"When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things ... " 1 Corinthiains 13:11

I am on the eve of turning 28 years old :gasp: and I am still striving to live up to this scripture. At this point in my life I've finally got a clear picture of who I want to be. Now just gotta do it.

Relationships? Over it. Lol. Not that I plan or want to be single for the rest of my life (fingers crossed). But that whole dating just to date thing. Soooooo 2009. I'm at this "unchildish" point where I want every relationship in my life to be CLEARLY defined (subliminal) and to have meaning. I just truly no longer have a desire to play around with fake friends or wannabe boyfriends. No thanx!

Work? Yea Over it! This will be my last job (by God's grace). I know most people are content working to pay their bills but... Yea not this chic. I have every intention of becoming an author that is able to take care of herself and her family through her gift. I understand now that I am not like everyone else and will never be happy just punching someones clock. I am happy for the experiences I have had but this too is coming to an end.

Family? We all we got! When I say family I am not necessarily talking about blood relation. Family to me are those people who have and will be there no matter what. People are so stuck on "blood" that they don't appreciate folk who are there and they don't have to be! In my life more often than not its my friends whom I go to when times are bad, not my 3rd cousin (no offence)

So in conclusion ( I hate when I write that but it seems appropriate). I'm living my life to live again and while I'm here I'm gonna live it to the fullest!

Pointing fingers?

First of all, I sincerely apologize for waiting 7 months :gasps: before writting a new post. I have no excuse, was just extremely lazy.

But the kid is back! owwwww (in my ghetto girl voice)

Now to more serious matters...

I want to dedicate this blog to being Pro Active. Times are rough all around and there are so many people who need help. Many of us point fingers about what our government is NOT doing and who our government is helping but there are very few of us who are actually out there trying to make a difference.

Every time I log onto the net (www.cnn.com and www.nydailynews.com ) there is some new party or group of people dedicated to complaining. Like Dude get a life! Why aren't there any groups popping up to help all the newly unemployed people that can't afford to take care of there families? Instead of complaining about welfare recipients why is no one trying to help those people who are more than willing to work but can't find any jobs?

I've decided to stop being a complainer. I am a part of alot of different groups and organizations and I plan on doing my best to get everybody I work with on board.

You with me?
