2013 is gone 4 ever suckers........

O.k. so another 365 days have flipped over the old calendar once again. Many people no doubt celebrated by watching the ball drop, standing out in the cold with people they enjoy or don't know (you choose). Some went to worship service and who knows what the rest have done-lol!
I like this time of year when people start lying about all their new years resolutions. Weight loss, Bible reading schedules, better to kids and better employees and the like. I decided I am gonna treat this as business as usual and keep my eyes on the prize. 2014 will be like no other year for all of us. Time will show what I meant. Besides yall ain't ready for this jelly yet.
Its all good

Several things I hate about Xmas and glad its fianlly ova!!!!!

1. I hate the phony Xmas spirits some pretend to have. Where is it @ the rest of the year?
2. That darn Salvation Army man who is always ringing that bell? Oh if he were only smart enough to get a credit card swipe!!!
3. The traffic at the Malls.
4. All the cheap items that stores present and people can't wait to purchase and give them as gifts that no one else wants????
5. The nativity scene in my neighbors yards. Dang, Jesus been a baby for 2,000 years now. The Bible says he is a King ruling in Heaven.
6. I hate that people tell their kids that Santa Claus is real. Now the debate is over is he black or white. I thought he wasn't even real to begin with.
7. The fact that people think December 25th is really Jesus Christ Birthday. A quick search on Google can solve this mystery.
8. Its one of the few times that families get together. It must be against the law to be loving any other time as a family.
9. I find it ironic that no 1 else in the Bible  "Ever" celebrated Jesus supposed Birthday, but people do now a days. The sad thing is the birthday boy is not even invited.
10. Tired of hearing people complain about all the $$ they wasted on gifts.
11. I detest the commercialism of holidays. People are such suckers for traditions of man!
12. I wonder why do they kill the trees and then hang ornaments on them?
13. At the end of day, I just wish people would realize that Xmas is a lie, Satan is real and we are all pawns in the game of life until we realize this thing is way bigger than us.

*Why do Doctors always snap their gloves when they begin a procedure?

*Why do women with no man have all the advice for women who got a man?

*Is it me or does it seem like people are only nice to those they feel inferior 2?

*How come some people not love ice cold water???????

*Why do people lie and then say it's not lying, just embellishing?

*How can one be a Christian if they don't even try to follow the Bible?

*What makes u stays stay at job we hate vs. finding another better one?

*Why some people think they are so wonderful and their ex will never do better?

* Why people pretend to listen and then say, What did you say?

Fight the Power.....

1. Remember, more often than not, it’s about them and not about you. Generally critical people are critical of everything and everyone. You are not unique, so don’t make it personal. If they are critical of your promotion or your new shirt, they are likely critical of your co-workers’ shoes, the water cooler, and their limited choices of screensavers.
2. You can always choose to ignore them. Most critical people are not critical with malicious intent. This is just their way of life. However, there are those critical people who like to get a reaction and may intend to cause some negative feelings. In this case the best thing you can do is ignore them. The more you respond, the more likely they will continue to be negative – and so the cycle will continue. You can’t stop critical people from talking, but you have the power to shorten the conversation.
3. Give them the opposite. I once knew a lady who was critical of everything I did because she knew it would always get under my skin. One day I decided that for every critical thing she would say, I would say something nice. She would say “I hope you didn’t think that shirt was cute when you bought it,” and I would reply, “I love your shoes.” She was stunned — so much so that she repeated her critical statement. When she realized her critical statements no longer bothered me, she eventually stopped.
4. Give them honest feedback. When we know that a person has a reputation for being critical, we have a tendency to ignore or avoid them. It’s only natural: who wants to hear their critical statements all day? However, it is important to consider if they are aware of how negative they are and whether they understand their intent. Critical people need love too! It may be helpful to pull them aside and ask if they are aware of the negative energy they bring into a room. Talk with them specifically about how their negativity makes you feel and how it affects you. They may be completely unaware of their actions and willing to change their behavior.

 I personally know a person who is strongly disliked by so many people and I often wonder does it bother her? They say everybody needs two things from life. 1. To have someone or something to love and 2. To be loved by someone or something. With out these, its gonna be a bumpy ride for all involved......

From 1 brutha to another: fear of the other brutha in a bow tie.......

O.k,. at my job we are moving into a new building this Saturday. They got overtime and all kinds of free give aways going on! Quite naturally they have movers at the job ( mostly black men, who seem to be quite musty!). I find it rather ironic- that most of the movers seem to either look away when we pass by or look at me like I am some wanna be "Carlton" from the fresh Prince!!!!! I thought at 1st, it may be due the fact that I am zipping around the hospital doing my thing, but heck, everybody does that-right? Then I started to realize that its because those men think I am not black enough.......... because I wear a bow tie or other fashionable neck attire. Hummmmmmmm, should I just walk around smelling all musty- in a pair of run down Chuck Taylor's?  I think the freak not!!!!!

If by some strange freak of nature, that I am correct in my thinking, I refuse to make my self yeild to fit some pseudo mold of what others think a stranger to them should or shouldn't be. I am not trying to just go thru life.....Ward is trying to Grow thru life. What those men don't see is the Man who had to struggle in his past as a single parent, going to college full time while working a full and part time job. A person who had to travel 200 miles a day for 18 months to obtain a Barber's License. A guy who lost his mother when just starting out in life. A person who loves helping people.

Nevertheless, it is what it izzz, for those to men 2  judge me because they know not what they do. But there is light at the end of the tunnel for those on lookers. My job has came up with an excellent ideal!! Everybody has to start wear uniforms and khaki's starting Monday. Ya know the ones like they wear in some schools? Now we can all walk around looking like we work at Staples. I am so excited to put my neck wear up on the shelf. Now I can finally be black enough to start getting the what up nodd from the real bruthas!!!!!
