Will the REAL Men Please Stand UP?!?!?!?

I'm NOT beating up the men today but I'm very real when I say that men need to "man up"! Too many women are being forced to be the man and the woman in the household and there's something definitely wrong with that!

Why must you be in your 40s and a woman has to teach you how to be a man? Why must a woman have to tell you that you should work when you already know that you want to eat? Why must a woman tell you anything about manly "stuff" when you should already know those things?

So many men say that women want to be the man and the woman in a relationship. Well, women would love to hand over the manly duties if the man would kindly take them over. Women only hold on to both responsibilities when the man fails to hold up his end. Trust me, women would love to relinquish certain things if they know that there is a man who's "got that".

The men of yesterday do not exist today. Just like we must raise our girls to be women, we've got to raise our boys to be men. If you're not raising your boys to be men, you are doing them a disservice.

Come on guys, you can do so much better than what you are doing. This world is depending on you.

Smooches . . .

Unhappy Does NOT Live Here

Some people are unhappy and they possess an energy that is unhealthy and can be contagious. They always have negative thoughts and never seem to have anything positive or uplifting to deposit into our lives. Their unhappiness is what makes them who they are and I personally do NOT have time for that.

My joy is knowing that I have friends and family members that are happy and uplift me when I feel a bit weary. My joy is knowing who I am, and I am more than thrilled about my life and where it has taken me. I can speak all day about the awards and accolades that I have received but when I speak about happiness and joy, I speak about my personal growth and development. I speak about raising children who have all made me a happy mother. I speak about the people who think highly of me because of the person that they know me to be. I speak of the individuals that I come in contact with on a daily basis who genuinely appreciate me for being the caring person that I am.

My happiness is because I refuse to be unhappy. I refuse to allow anyone to have control over my sanity. I refuse to engage in conversation that is not fitting to what I want in my life. I do not want folk in my presence who never have a kind word to say . . . I always want to be in the presence of folk who can always deposit something positive in my life.

I encourage you to surround yourself with folk who are motivators and encourage you to be a better you. I'm allergic to foolishness and you should be too!

Smooches . . .
