"Life is so much smarter than we are, it never
moves too quickly, nor does it skip any steps. Life always shows up on
time and in time to bless, teach, reward, heal, protect, or guide us.
Life always knows exactly what we need, what we are ready for, and when
we are prepared to receive it. We are usually so busy looking behind or
ahead, we miss the flow of life passing right before our eyes. Fear,
anxiety, guilt, and shame fog our vision and cause us to miss the point,
the lesson, and the blessings that are present right now. Let us
remember that right now is a blessing. When we understand that, we stop
second-guessing life." ~Iyanla Vanzant~
"Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets - so love the
people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe
that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance - take it. If
it changes your life - let it. Nobody said that it would be easy, they
just promised it would be worth it "
"As children bring their broken toys,
With tears for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams to God,
Because He was my friend.
But then, instead of leaving Him in peace to work alone,
I hung around and tried to help,
With ways that were my own.
At last I snatched them back and cried,
"How can you be so slow?"
"My child," He said, "What could I do?
You never did let go."
(LET GO AND LET GOD)
"A southern girl is a girl who knows full well that she can open a door
for herself but prefers for the gentleman to do it because it
demonstrates a sense of respect. After all, every girl wants to be
treated like a princess. We know how to make sweet tea and grits and we
pick our battles and fight with the heart of a pitbull while still
maintaining grace and elegance. Our mystique is that of the soft-spoken,
mild- mannered southern belle who could direct an army, loves her momma
and will always be a daddy's girl."
"It is often said that eyes are the windows to the soul. If this is
true, then a smile is the doorway." unknown
*“The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to *an opponent,
tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a
father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of
you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity.
*"Lord grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the
courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of
those people I had to kill because they pissed me off."*

"False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces;
but true friendship gives new life and animation to the object it
supports."
--Richard Burton
