Why Did You Make Me Black Lord ….
Lord …. Why did you make me black?
Why did you make someone
the world would hold back?
Black is the color of dirty clothes,
of grimy hands and feet…
Black is the color of darkness,
of tired beaten streets…
Why did you give me thick lips,
a broad nose and kinky hair?
Why did you create someone
who receives the hated stare?

Yes, I Am…. Grateful !!!
Everyday is a blessing, and in each moment there are many things that we can be grateful for. The world opens up to us when we live in a space of gratitude. In essence, gratitude has a snowball effect. When we are appreciative and express that gratitude, the universe glows a bit brighter and showers us with even more blessings.

Let It Go
There are people who can walk away from you and
hear me when I tell you this - when people can walk
away from you: let them walk.
..
I don’t want you
to try to talk another person into staying with you,
loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to
see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
..
When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. The
Bible said that, “they came out from us that it might
be manifest that they were not for us. For had
they been of us, no doubt they would have continued
with us.” (1John 2:19).
..
People leave you because they are not joined to you.
And if they are not joined to you, you can get super
glue and you can’t make them stay. Let them go. And it
doesn’t mean that they are a bad person it just means
that their part in the story is over. And you’ve got
to know when people’s part in your story is over so
that you don’t keep trying to raise the dead.
