Let me cook, iron and clean
Let me explore, let me dream
Let me kiss and comfort you
Let me do just what I do

Today I saw an owl
Or did he see me?
For I looked outside the window
And saw him sitting in a tree

I've heard people say they "Found God"
You didn't find God, because God was never lost
You say, you lost your wallet, or you lost your keys…
You didn't lose your keys, you misplaced your keys
...

Relationships start off like oh so right
Making love damn near every single night
Dancing, the movies, going out bowling
Cracking so many jokes, I'm on the floor rolling

How much in our life do we copy/paste and what is the effect of it?
You can copy/paste pictures, my energy, my attitude, my emotions, my spiritual growth… but what is it about copying?
You have the choice in life what you choose to copy and paste if any.

Welcome to December. A joyful, jolly month. A month of happiness, beautiful lights, decorations, positive vibes, excitement, gift giving, peace on earth and love. Yes, this is the right time and this is the right season. A season of endings, out with the old and beginnings, in with the new. End the year strong and begin the new year even stronger.

I have decided the gift to myself this Christmas is to start doing right, not just in some areas, but in every area of my life. And how I will do that is to maintain a right attitude, stay on the right path with the right frame of mind, right my wrongs, have the right perspective and outlook on life, live right, eat right and do what is right by God.

Yes I said it - The Dressless, cause what are they really wearing?
It's practically nothing. Should it be called "Clothes for Hoez? "
But why do they dress less? Is it for attention, is it insecurity, is it they lack confidence, is it cute, is it tacky, is it sexy, is it to "fit in, " is it misleading, is it enticing…?
...

I am woman… not just today, but every day.

I am courageous, I am creative, I am beautiful…
I am strong, I am independent, I am vivacious…
...

Should I leave or should I stay?
Stay for who? Stay for what?
Leave to go where? Leave to do what?
Do what you feel, follow your gut
...

Words are many so how do we begin to express the love we feel within. We are truly blessed, grateful and thankful. Yes, we are blessed beyond measure, for God has given us His best secret treasure.
The most wonderful gift of all is the one we are proud to call - Momma.

We thank God for all that you are. You are a beautiful, courageous, strong, compassionate woman. Thank you for being our light when we couldn't see, for instilling in us to be all that we could be. When things are right and even when wrong, we are glad we have you to lean on. You have been there for us so many times and in so many ways, for some of our most happiest moments and even our saddest days.

Mother you were always there to dress me, feed me, comb my hair
To laugh and play and walk with me
To come home tired, but still talk to me
You were there to watch me grow and in my heart, I love you so

This one is for the moms. The moms who put their kids before themselves, the moms who are the manager of the family, the moms who children come just to have a casual catching up conversation, or the moms their kids call first when a situation has arisen. These moms are special and deserve to be treated as such! So I am taking the time out to write this for not any mom, but the mom. My mother! She is very, very open, sociable and honest. My mom has great intentions for all situations and keeps it real. She is Godly and many have seen this just by being in her presence for even just a short time. She is so carefree and spirited that some may be taken aback when they first see this, but of course end up loving her for the amazing, fun character she is and has.

I would have to say, I have a great mom and I want her to experience a lot more than she has. Her strength is what inspires me and her confidence is something I can only imagine to some day have.
She raised my sister and brothers all on her own which shows incredible endurance and love for her kids. That's the greatest thing about my mom, she puts her kids before herself. She's selfless and rarely asks for much, for that, she deserves it all. Not only does she have a beautiful, outside appearance. She has a pure spirit filled with lots of love.

I found a pecan on the ground
I picked it up when no one was around
A young lady parked her bike and was sitting on the ground crying her heart out because her boyfriend cheated on her before and didn't want her anymore. I stopped, talked and comforted her with the words I had to say. Her tears were dried, I gave her a hug and she went on her way.
...

Today I decided to get work done on my car
But a simple conversation was taken too far
Got damn Stupid He always wanna start with me
He needs to learn how to let things be

There are times in life where you will have emotional highs and lows. There will be rejection, hurt and disappointment. There will be times you will be broken, your heart, your thoughts and at times even your spirit. But through it all, there will be God's light guiding you, walking with you, shining upon you, holding you, protecting you and covering you.
No weapon formed against you shall prosper. So during those times of weakness, confusion and uncertainty and during difficult moments and challenges, don't be discouraged, just know, God is carrying you through the rain and through the storms of life. Believe, hold on, be strong and KNOW better days are ahead.

So yeah, no matter what color you may be at this moment, you may be black, gray or blue, it may be dark and gloomy and you may be broken,

There are no instructions on being a father
No matter what is written in a book
You have to be there and experience it
One step was all it took
...

I blow kisses to my Father as I arise and see the sun
I blow kisses to my Father before my day has even begun
I blow kisses to my Father as I look up to the sky
I blow kisses to my Father there are many reasons why

NFL National Football League
Football allows the world and fans to witness historical moments in time. I am from New Orleans, home of the New Orleans Saints. Our historical moment in time came when we were able to endure and overcome defeat with triumph as we became the "Who Dat Nation" bringing home the Superbowl Championship in 2009. For the last 40 years the world was able to watch the transformation.

Our team went from boys to men

In a cold world on a hot day, I come home and relax. Yes,98 degrees outside. I turn on the ac and lay across my bed to take a nap. The beauty of the natural light shines upon me for I am a "Sleeping Beauty."

In a cold world on a hot day there is movement in time all across the world - Noise, traffic, interviews, meetings, laughing, crying, talking, playing, eating...
