The Journey of a Dreamer

The journey of a dreamer has a lifestyle of its own and every second is vital. It appears you inherited everything associated with life turbulenecs, trials and tribulations.  You're constantly overwhelmed by the facts of life, and subsequently your friends might think of you as a chattering, flighty, light-headed person. Cantankerous! But the dreamer is looking for the Miraculous where Miracles aren't taking place. The "impossible" signs are removed from the mind and the "possible" sign replaced every 30 seconds in the mind of a dreamer.  Though timing is always a factor, delays are signs the impossible is possible. Neither Jupiter, Venus or Mars has a clue. This is your destiny - claim it! Without delays life would be like cancorworms eating up your fruits and vegetables in Summer. While others are content dreamer's are comsumed by their next assignment. The bigger the dream -  the greater the trial. The greater the trial - the greater the knowledge. The greater the knowledge - the greater the responsibilty. It all comes along with the journeymen's territory. No detours or alternatives.
The journey for the dreamer is kind-a-like sky scraping, mountain climbing or bungee jumping. Something you've always wanted to do, but fear it was impossible to perform. Dont' despise the dreamer, his heart in the hands of the dream Giver. Therefore, dream like it will happen on tomorrow. Dream-a-dream so big, that it is impossible by man standards, but possible with God.  The journey exist to keep us from falling into the pitfalls of destruction. Have you been labeled as a dreamer? If so, here's a little advice. Don't quit! Don't think about giving up! It doesn't matter how hard the journey - the journey is focus keeper until your final destination - DESTINY. Hold fast, the manifestations will come, if you faint not. Time and time again, God will renew your subscriptions, by delays, tribulations, and the struggles. Destiny. Can you hear, see or feel it? It has your name on it. My theory is the journey is much greater than the reward - once you've reached the climax, you are thirsty for the next subscription God has. Be anxious for nothing. Wait patiently. The journey is only a plato for reinvening the new you.  Once the journey is over and the dream fulfilled, then will God give you another dream, vision and time see the manifestations come o fruition. Renew your subscription today! Seek His guideance for your journey and path to DESTINY. Embrace it! Destiny is in front of you. God is within you. And life is on your side.  Focus primarily on the dream Giver and subscribe frequently to His new issues and apply the seal of approval from The Almighty...

Golden Opportunity to meet an Angel or Friend

    This morning a lovely woman driving a clean-black 4-door BMW casually dressed, and a beautiful smile, had noticed me in the parking lot of my son's school three days in a row.  I will call her Emily, - she approached me before entering the school.  Without any formal introduction she walked over and said, "I have seen you three mornings in one week and we begin conversing. She informed me of her affiliation with the school etc., but before our conversation ended I immediately realized she was a prayer answered.
  Early morning before I raised my eyelids, I heard a voice say, "Fast today between the hours of 6:00AM - 2:00PM I have an awesome blessing in store for you."  (paraphrased)  Trying to clear my head, wondering what blessing(s) it might be - one had already occured: I woke up capable of moving my limbs and breathing. Grateful!!! How grateful!!
   An act of obedience is a reward within itself. While we are always thinking of what our personal needs are, try to meet someone else's need, but that's exactly what was on my mind - (my need) but today it was for my son. God intervened on his behalf.  It's still early 11:11AM and an answer for direction came as clear as daylight. My son needed a little encouragement. Emily, the woman in the clean-black 4-door BMW was moved to do something special and she did...It was awesome!

   It doesn't matter if you are in a restaurant, grocery shopping, school, or fueling your car - that's the magic moment to meet a new friend, or an angel. That moment can be crucial to your next dental or doctor's appointment, job interview, church invite, stage play or television commercial. Never miss that golden opportunity to speak, compliment or give some free advise. I love those moments! Try it sometimes. You'll be glad you did!!!!

Welcome to the Writer's Cage

     Welcome to The Writer's Cage - a place where you can feel comfortable with a pen and paper while writing; because you are the driving force. It's where lead or ink is dispelled onto paper of written or rewritten words. It's where the proper setting is  provided for the pen to captivate all the thoughts and feelings of your heart. 
    It is a warm peaceful-environment, an atmosphere where adults can learn their craft in writing. You will feel just like a child who reads aloud for the first time, play their harmonica, and hum like mockingbirds in the wild; as your imagination runs away through the veins of a pen.  Wake up your imaginary pen - it is waiting on you. ....Just write and rewrite - you'll find something tangible to write about eventually. 
Trust me...

A Tapestry of Grace

We are a group of head-strong, colorfully-coded, and blended women, who fail to believe we’ve been abandoned by our own heritage.  Rather, we’re upheld by good, destroying the weakest form of nature from our youth; and transferring by the renewing of our minds.
                        Denying the fact that we are a culture of worthless little human creatures – aimlessly wondering in the wilderness for forty years as incompetent and endangered species. God forbid!
            Standing closely knit embracing, empowering (shoulder-to-shoulder), encouraging by the worthy- wisdom of our strong mother’s.  Fighting a faith, that has gone beyond the slippers on our feet, or the skin beneath our knees.  Oh grace!
                        All we have left of one another are memories, love, beauty, respect, strength, wisdom, ideals, and the power from within.  Something we rarely see in this new generation. Therefore, we are the keepers of their souls.
                        We are known as, “The Tapestry of Grace.”  Products from our past, a role model for our future generation; and a contributor to a group of young women paralyzed by our society. We refuse to let them die defeated….

Networking with Medical Professional's

       It's always good to consult a physician regarding your medical needs before a fast, or start on a diet regiment that fits your own design. We should also consult "The Great Physician" as well, because God made us in His own image and know more about us than we do ourselves. Learn more about your body in its natural state.  However.  in the meantime, we need to network with medical professionals, and today I consulted with Heather Taylor, FNP we had a  great conversation that keeps us connected for life.  If you are seeking a new physician please contact her and make an appointment. We're going to help Heather Taylor build an empire in 2012.

Thanks,

Introduction to The Writer's Cage

  When I was a little girl, I stood in every mirror presented to me, delivering speeches for an audience I had never seen before.  The crowds were large, and the expressions on their faces seemed as if they were surprised by the big explosive words that came forth from the small child's mouth. Being quite intrigued by their voices heard in my head; I held on motionless to the broom handle used as my microphone to please them. They were cheering so loud, the more they cheered - the more words developed in my mind. It was just like an automatic dictionary, words that were so clear and as clean and crisp as a fountain of water rolling from my tongue.
    I knew then, at the tender age of five without a doubt, I wanted to become a writer. Not only a writer, but a singer, both in conjunction with the gifts which had been placed inside of me. Turning to my mother I smiled, asking for her genuine-persausive-permission (motivation) to confirm exactly what was needed to move forward. The lyrics, the poetry, and the words of wisdom has never faded in the midst of time.  She was my guiding force. And that guiding force has led me to believe that this dream should continue as a writer/poet in my adult life. 
   Each day, I spend time with a pencil and paper to develop a lifestyle of words that we identify as writing and rewriting.                  
           If ever you are in doubt about your writing, consult The Writer's Cage for your journey of writing needs. I'd love to hear from you...
