Happy Valentine's Day/Happy Singles Awareness Day

Valentine's Day bites.ahaha jk Never really cared much for this day because I believe love should be spread everyday, but for those of you truly in love...hats off to ya cause it's a beautiful thing. Happy Singles Awareness Day to the other folks. All I can say is whether single or in a relationship..It's important to love thy SELF first! Sending you all infinite amounts of love! "Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all” Whitney Houston

"I Have A Dream"

When I think of Martin Luther King Jr... I automatically correlate him with the word FREEDOM & EQUALITY, because ultimately that is all he wanted. Beyond just wanting it, he was a man who was not afraid to put up a fight....but a fight for rights driven without the intentions of violence or hate. He defined his strength through courageous efforts where love and equality remained the center of what he was fighting for.

This day...in honor of MLK is a reminder to myself to always continue fighting hard for what I believe in. That absolutely any obstacle can be overcome, because there is no such thing as giving up. We all have the tenacity to fight through difficult situations. It is not only in the good times, but more so the bad times that help to build and define our character. It is through bad times where we find strength. Take a stand! Make a difference! Have a voice!! And remember to always do it with love and grace! Respect & Blessings to ALL!!

“If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

“Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”

-MLK

Words to Live By...

"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others."

-Audrey Hepburn

WWOORDD!!!

Haha!! Need I say more?

Remembering Steve Jobs 1955-2011

What can I say about this brilliant, creative, inspiring GENIUS that you all don't already know!?! He is definitely the man I owe for making life easier on my not so techie savvy self. But besides that, this man is truly inspirational and shares an amazing story we all can learn from. I received an email from my mother back in April that had the subject, "Interesting story" so I continued to click on the link, http://news.stanford.edu/news/2005/june15/jobs-061505.html and it was the first time I got a glimpse into Steve Jobs' personal life. My mother sends me countless inspirational emails, but this one definitely hit me in a different way because there is something so magnetizing about a success story that holds a bit of strife that is overcome through such strength and motivation. Steve Jobs was not only a visionary innovator for Apple, but a man who represents stepping out of the box, pushing the limits, and not allowing for any excuse for an individual to excel.

"Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle."

BELIEVE that!!
