Words of WisDon (Wisdom)
The music of my life plays...one key at a time.. One note represents a syllable and each chord...a thought...It's common that I may hit a bad note from time to time, but it'll never be the same note twice, as I learn while my song is being played. - Don Savant
When It's Time To Grow Up.
Everyone on this earth has to grow up at some point in their lives. Some people choose not to but others, when they come to that realization will do anything to ensure that their growth process ensues.
When this realization come, it is laced with consequences. There are some things that you have to give up in order to press forward, some people you have to let go of, some habits that absolutely have to be broken, and in most cases, you must agree within yourself to do things that you either don't want to or never had any intention of doing.
Before all of this can take place, you have to first want to and be willing to change in order to achieve your goals. Even before that, you must have dreams, and those dreams must represent the goals that you want to set and the life that you'd like to live. Once all that is in place, and you believe with all your heart that this can be done, that your faith is in tact and you've researched every aspect of what you're doing, it's time to make it happen.
Along the way, you'll have doubts, you'll have doubters. You'll have people that will stand behind you and wish you nothing but blessings along the way, and then you'll have those that will tell you that you're going to fail and even go as far as to wish failure upon you. If you're weak in the mind, the latter represents the voice you will hear the loudest. Especially when things aren't going as well as expected or aren't happening as quickly as you'd hoped. You cannot fall prey to that voice, but you can continue to pray, and do so, not asking for guidances through it all but to thank Him for it already coming to pass. If you speak it into existence, and believe that it exists without a doubt, it will certainly come to pass.
There is absolutely nothing that your mind can conjure up that impossible to achieve. All we have to do is grow up, and want something different for ourselves, and to never give up on what we're destined to be.
Let's get it people...let's go out and get everything we've ever wanted.

Rant...Short and Sweet.
People don't want their kids to watch and listen to Obama speak to them about the importance of education yet, they sit and let them stay glued to the television when The Simpsons, Family Guy, King of the Hill, etc comes on? Way to go America.

Be Encouraged.
Sometimes it rains in our lives and the things we'd hoped to accomplished slip through the cracks. Some people see this as the time to be frustrated, and to give up on your dreams. In actuality, that rain could be your blessing beginning to shower you and to move in your life. If you ever want anything that will carry value, you've got to work for it. It won't be easy but it's not impossible. Those low moments are the ones that are designed to give us the most hope, the most determination and drive to more forward with what we're doing. After it rains...guess what comes? Sunshine. Hard times are what testimonies are made of and it's up to us to keep our faith long enough to have our own personal one. It's easy to say thank you Lord when things are going your way but if you say it before you go through, while you're going through and after you've been through, you'll find that you'll appreciate your journey a lot more. Keep your head skyward and your spirits lifted and he will carry you.

The Optimist's Creed
I Promise Myself
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best
and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of
others as I am about my own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the
greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile
to every living creature I meet.
To give so much time to improving myself that I
have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear,
and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world,
not in loud words, but in great deeds.
I live in the faith that the whole world is on my side,
so long as I am true to the best that is in me.
