You're Not Here By Accident

Just think...You're not here by chance, but by God's choosing. The hand of Mother/Father God formed you and made you the person you are, comparing you with no one else -- you are one of a kind. You lack nothing that Grace won't provide. You have been allowed to be here at this time in history to fulfill a special purpose for this generation.

How to Fix the Rape Culture

THIS POST IS COPIED IN ITS ENTIRETY FROM THE BLOG OF DR. LAURA BERMAN. The Sound of Silence: How We all Contribute to Rape Culture—and How to Fix it October 13, 2016 | Posted in: Uncategorized “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.” –Desmond Tutu Let me set the scene: You are at a party, mingling with old friends and a few new faces. Everyone is enjoying their drinks and having a good time. The party is a success. Suddenly, one of the new guys speaks up. “Hey, I have a good joke!” he says. “Let’s hear it,” everyone agrees. “Okay,” he says. “What new skill did tight-end Aaron Hernandez learn while in prison?” You shrug.

What Advice Would You Give Your Younger Self?

Remember seeing that question all over the place; and do you ever answer it in your mind (or aloud, as I frequently talk to myself :>))?  How about we make a paradigm shift here and realize that some of the advice you would give your younger self can still be applied to your present self.  It ain't over 'til it's over! Hmmm... I would tell my younger self to stick with piano lessons -- I can still pursue that.  There's a beautiful music studio run by a beautiful entrepreneur in this city, who teaches piano classes...
