happy days are like morning dew mixed with a side of you
sadness comes from the inner darkness of crossing through
and THEREAFTER
joy is the sound of the sun rising after a pouring rain
peace is within the deepest sea of the heart frame
magic happens when i simply allow myself to think
doom occurs out of no where leaving me to sink
BUT
faith comes after all is said and done
pressure even gives you the motive to run
beauty lies within your mind and thoughts
grace can only fall from the heavens even if it isnt sought
love is the key that opens every door
could God give you anymore to live for?

What Not to Say About Someone's Appearance
Don’t say: “You look tired.”
Why: It implies she doesn’t look good.
Instead say: “Is everything OK?” We often blurt the “tired” comment when we get the sense that the other person feels out of sorts. So just ask.
Don’t say: “Wow, you’ve lost a ton of weight!”
Why: To a newly trim person, it might give the impression that she used to look unattractive.
Instead say: “You look fantastic.” And leave it at that. If you’re curious about how she got so svelte, add, “What’s your secret?”
Don’t say: “You look good for your age.”
Why: Anything with a caveat like this is rude. It's saying, "You look great―compared with other old people. It's amazing you have all your own teeth."
Instead say: “You look great.”
Don’t say: “I could never wear that.”
Why: It can be misunderstood as a criticism. (“I could never wear that because it’s so ugly.”)
Instead say: “You look so good in skinny jeans.” If you slip, say something like “I could never wear that…because I wasn’t blessed with your long legs.” Follow these tips to shop smart for your own body type.
Expert advice from Clinton Kelly, cohost of the TLC show, What Not to Wear.
What Not to Say in the Workplace
Don’t say: “That’s not my job.”
Why: If your superior asks you to do something, it is your job.
Instead say: “I’m not sure that should be my priority right now.” Then have a conversation with your boss about your responsibilities. In the past year, the rules of the workplace have changed. Learn how to shine at work in the new economy.
Don’t say: “This might sound stupid, but…”
Why: Never undermine your ideas by prefacing your remarks with wishy-washy language.
Instead say: What’s on your mind. It reinforces your credibility to present your ideas with confidence.
Don’t say: “I don’t have time to talk to you.”
Why: It’s plain rude, in person or on the phone.
Instead say: “I’m just finishing something up right now. Can I come by when I’m done?” Graciously explain why you can’t talk now, and suggest catching up at an appointed time later. Let phone calls go to voice mail until you can give callers your undivided attention.

to: destiny
i can feel you somehow in the distance
i know im not the only one
so why dont you just make the first instance
what we have is not done
but known as the famous unfinished business
destiny, where are you?
how can we just let go
when we are tied and stuck like super glue
i miss you even in the happiest times
why cant we press rewind
fast forward and rewind again
reminisce on remember when
tears remain not dropped
as this new me emerges
then im back to old
i ask again...where are you?
from: your child

DreamingoutLOUD!
if you could have something more than anything
what would it be?
fearful answers wont get you no where
push forward and dont rewind
just remind yourself of what it could have been or turned into
the world is waiting and ready to surrender to your call
or you can just let it stall
and we will never know about you at all
be free and release all your beautiful colors
come on golden child and let it go
so you will be able to grow, mature, and live in prosperity
hey hey its ok
the more you delay
the more you will stray
scream!
stand proud
even in the sight of the crowd
dream out loud

Must Have!
How are you guys?...Me I am chilling...infatuated with life.
The more and more I search for the answers, the more and more things are being revealed to me.
Did you know all of your dreams can come to life if only you believe through sacrifice and perseverance??
I'm so grateful to know the Prince of Peace. I am ever more grateful that I am His favorite!!!
There are many things happening right now in so many ways other than just the financial and materialistic realm.
God is so awesome and I'm not ready to share everything yet with y'all because I know the story has more to tell.
So until then, stay blessed and prayerful...God is on His way!!!!!!!!
