Road Rage!

Every day on my way to work, I get all my aggression out in my car and they call it road rage. Here are a few things some drivers do that really get under my skin:

(1) Pull off without looking when coming out of the gas station.

• Please just look on both ways.


• There have been so many times I had to slam on my brakes to prevent an accident from happening.


• I think there should be a law that all gas stations should have a yield sign when people are pulling out of the station.

(2) Backing up on the highway because you missed your exit.

• Are you for real?


• People are going way too fast for you to back up and plus its very dangerous.


• All you have to do is just drive up to the next exit. Turn around and get back on the highway.

(3) I have a green light and have the right a way, but then you decide to take your right turn on red.

(4) Waiting a week and a day to go when the light is green.

(5) You are driving slow in the fast lane.

(6) You pull in front of me when there is no one behind me. Then you go slow as molasses.

(7) Someone who brakes every five seconds.

• Really?


• Just don't drive if you are that scared.

(8) Back seat drivers.

• Just shut up!

(9) If you are small as me (5'1"or under), then you do not need to drive an expedition or an excursion.
(10) Truckers need to look out for other drivers.

Ms. Encore Couture

I want to congratulate my friend Lakesha Heath for winning Ms. Encore Couture. I'm such a proud friend. She deserves it, too. I met Ke Ke when I was 22 and we have had a great friendship ever since. We meet at church, but since then we have moved onto other churches and have seen each other sporadically. When we do see each other, its like we never missed a beat.

Now, this pageant was for full-figure women, and about time! Most women aren't even a size 2. Even Marilyn Monroe, who many men drool over, wore a size 16. She was featured in the Herald in Rock Hill, SC and I saw some of the comments. They weren't very nice. I think for some people, if you don't have anything nice to say, just don't say anything at all. I'm sure there is a flaw or something you don't like about yourself that people can talk about.

I just want to say, I think Lakesha is a very beautiful woman inside and out. She is a great friend, sister, encourager, truthful, loyal, and has a big & good heart. She is an extrovert and probably wouldn't care about the negativity people say about her, because she is on cloud nine. Mama, keep doing your thing. You are definitely going places and people are always going to hate. If you have hundreds of haters, than baby you are doing something right! Love you always!

Religious People

Now, religion is a very touchy subject, so I'm going to try to say the politically right things. Ok? So, I have been around people and they have told me that they don't do certain things because they are "religious." For an example, a guy goes to a strip club with his and says he didn't look or didn't go in because he is "religious." Now for me, I would be a little taken back, I don't know about you, but to me that seems a little strange. So, what was the point of him going to the club. Just to say he went, umm.....I don't think so. Its like putting candy in front of a child and the child says he/she didn't touch the candy.

Some people, like me, think when some people call themselves religious they are hiding something or they are being phony. Some people who call themselves religious are the most hypocritical and judgmental people in the world. But on the other hand some people say that if some people call themselves religious to help them get through the day, then let them.

I just feel that instead of saying you are religious just say you are a devote Christian, Catholic, Jew, etc. Maybe I'm wrong and maybe I'm too judgemental. Please let me know what you think about this subject. Thanks!

Law of Attraction

My mom and I just finished watching this movie called the Secret. It was great and uplifting, which was also a book. But there is this great secret all of the greats (such as Martin Luther and Einstein) truely understand. It is called the Law of Attraction, meaning whatever you think the universe will respond by giving you your wish. Its like in the movies, when a person rubs a lamp and a genie pops out saying, "Your wish is my command."

At first, I thought this couldn't work but it actually does. For example, when I was a kid I would always pray to God, "Please get me out of here (New York). This is not the life I want." I also prayed to God, "If I leave for college, I want my mom to come with me." I don't remember how long I prayed for me to get out of New York, but I prayed for two years for my mom to come with me when I left for college. Next thing I know, my mom's new job (only there for 2yrs) decides to send some people to Charlotte, North Carolina because there was going to be a new home base there. This was told to my mom January 1999 and we had to give a reponse by March of 1999. 1999 was the year I was graduating from high school. So, I did get what I wanted. I got out of New York and my mom was coming along with me for the ride.

The main thing about Law of Attraction is if you are grateful for everything you have now, then good will come back onto you. This means, if you are having a bad day, then get out a pen and paper, write down a gratitude list. The list will make you forget why you were even having a bad day. If you can't see yourself writing a list, then listen to the music you like, read your favorite book, or even watch a funny movie. Put yourself in a place where you have good thoughts.

Your thoughts are what shape you and your life. If you have a gloomy way or look at your life half empty, this the lifestyle you are heading into, a chained/caged life. If you are free or look at life half full, then your life and opportunities are limitless. So, I'm encouraging you all to start having happy thoughts. Surround yourselves with positive things/people and positivity will always come straight back to you.

Have you ever had your own example of Law of Attraction? Please tell.....=)
