"The Light in YOU"

Words I came across today.....

"No one after lightening a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness. Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no park dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light."

Luke 11:33-36

To Hide or Face Adversity?.....

When facing the teeth of adversity, we either hide from our challenges by avoiding them or we face them head-on. The easy option is to hide from our problems because we will live to see another day, but if we choose to do so, sooner or later we will again be victimized by the similar circumstances. On the other hand, the tougher option is to  face our problems head-on with intentions of completely shattering them, but if we choose to do so too soon, we could ruin ourselves and others

Hiding from our problems, in most cases, is simply the easy way out. If you're not a confrontational persons, dealing with "drama" on a regular bases is both tiresome and deflating. Simply "turning the other cheek" is ideal and in many cases, its actually helpful with overcoming adversity.  In the end, living a stress-free lifestyle is your ultimate goal and by turning the other cheek to adversity, you'll be choosing temporary happiness over sadness. But in most cases, temporary happiness at the expense of sadness is like a game of Poker, you'll win some of the time but not most of the time. 

Facing our problems head-on with the intentions of completely destroying them is the ideal way to go. If you're a confrontational person, dealing with "drama" or "confusion" on a regular bases comes easy. Turning the other cheek simply isn't an option because the problem will still be there at the expense of your happiness which  is counter productive in your eyes; not on you clock. In the end, living a stress-free lifestyle is still your ultimate goal and by facing adversity head-on, you''re sacrificing temporary sadness  over happiness. But in some cases, temporary sadness over permanent happiest is like a game of Russian Roulette, you'll win some of the time but if you lost.....you'll lose BIG.

In conclusion, there's no right or wrong way to facing the teeth of adversity. The easy option is to hide from our problems now, and pray similar circumstances don't resurface later, but that's highly unlikely because we'll see them again. The tougher option is to  face problems head-on, but if we're not mentally prepared for the task, we will ruining ourselves and others in the process. 

So Make a decision and live with it.

Happy Relationships will birth Happy Marriage, but.......ONLY

HAPPILY EVER AFTER is the ultimate dream for us as people. We all want that “house on a hill” with the green grass and puppies running all over the yard. We all want that ideal companion holding our hand during the day, while rocking us to sleep at night. We all want the ideal family that consist of, but isn’t limited to: Man, Woman, Child/Children and Pet. Working during our weekdays, while enjoying our weekend is the ideal work schedule for us all, but what does it take to even get to this level and does this “ideal world” even exist??!!!

With that being said, US as men must be willing to first answer these next few questions honesty and must be willing to make adequate adjustments accordingly; they are 1) We must build our worth as promising men,  but are we willing to strive for personal growth every day? 2) We are fast to criticize others, but are we able to handle criticism ourselves? 3) The pretty woman is preferred, but why are we fast to QUEEN these worthless women [gold digging lazy women], when there are countless beautiful smart princesses out here already waiting for us to QUEEN them? 4) (For those that this apply to) Why not be fathers to our children, when we are the ones that brought them here in the first place?! *Hint: they didn’t ask to be born.

But it goes both ways so.....

LADIES...word on the streets is that a GOOD MAN is hard to find, but ladies, 1) if you aren't happy with yourselves, what makes you believe you'll be able to bring happiness to a man's life? 2) If you're too stubborn to admit to wrong or reach out for his love, what makes you believe you'll bring happiness to a man's life? 3) If you aren't willing to NEGOTIATE..what makes you believe you'll make someone a happy WIFE??? 5) (For those that this applies to) If a man wants to see his child, yet he doesn’t want to be with you, why keep him from his child because you still hold that personal grudge?*Hint: You’re only hurting yourself because that children will go searching for the truth one day. I know people that are in this dilemma now.

In conclusion, these questions will not guarantee us LOVE or the Perfect marriage, but I do believe that they’ll put you in better position to meet that “ideal” companion, but only if we are willing to honesty answer these few questions. Will you and your family live in that “house on a green hill with the child/children and pets? HAHA that all depends on you and your companion’s work ethic!! :D Look I’m not a relationship expect, not even trying to be, but I do ask tons of questions, which is where these questions derived from.

Delight vs Disappointment & Why Your Attitude Matters!!

When Delighted by someone or something....life as we know it... is Grand :D We are emotionally complete & fulfilled, while our perfect world continues to spend in peace. We will willingly smile at every passing stranger on the sidewalk, whistle with chirping birds outside, reply to needy friend's txt messages & even opt to cover the tab after the lunch.

However......

When Disappointed by someone or something...........life as we know it is Anarchy :( We are emotionally strained & defected, our once perfect world is now broken & covered with dark misty rain clouds. We can't find the strength to smile, so we avoid eye contact with passing strangers on the sidewalk. We don't see or hear any chirping birds outside. We don't reply to our friend's txt messages, so that once lucky lunch date at Panera Bread is now yesterdays used toilet tissue, flushed down the toilet.

See, WE as people, might CAN'T manipulate any & everything in life, but we CAN control how WE respond to adversity!

True, God/Allah/Buddha or whomever you believe in, made us in their self image, but with attribute restrictions. The single greatest attribute restriction they posse, but what we lack, is full manipulation of life itself. With that being said, I believe this "lacking" of full manipulation, is why we are so easily frustrated when things don't go our way because we need full control of everything & everyone. Ultimately, this simple miscue is why others letting us down...We give people titles they never were & power they never earned in the first place! This prerequisite is also what leads to our egos being brush, which is also the prerequisite to Disappointment.

Roman Empire

But.....Like I previous stated, we Can Control how WE respond to adversity in life itself. Our logical theories & vivid prospectives can help us jump start our day with that redefined energy!! God/Allah/Buddha ect. never intended for us to have ALL OUT power over everything. This is also why, despite our many flaws, America is still a super power after all these years. Our nations power is allocated across several branches, unlike previous super powers in history. From The Roman Empire to Hitler's Germany the lacking of allocation is why they crumbled. Its just in our nature..... to crave for my power! But we weren't created to control everything in the first place!lol Anyway, by us controlling what we CAN, we aren't only barricading negativity from penetrating our brain, but also bettering our life style each & everyday. Positive thing is contagious too because who doesn't want to be associated which Rev. TD Jakes or Billy Gram. Let's face it by surrounding yourself with positive person, it give you a more positive outlook on life which is the ultimate prerequisite to being Delighted!!!





So never give into defeat & never stop believing in yourself! Never stop trying! Never stop fighting because WE as people, might CAN'T manipulate any & everything in life, but we CAN control how WE handle adversity.

So are you delighted or disappointed by this Blog entry?? Lol decide for yourself

Are You A Winner??????

Micheal Jordan

By definition via dictionary.com the word "Winner" is defined as "a person, situation or outcome whereby the winner receives all the prizes or rewards.", but I define a Winner in simpler terms as A PERSON THAT REFUSES TO GIVE UP!

To me, a winner is defined more so by their refusal to give in to defeat than by their representation of prestigious awards. Let's face it, both criticism & praise are inevitable, but if we give our ALL regardless who's present or absent, we'll be Winners regardless! So what defines a Winner?

These characteristics!

A Winner strives to top yesterdays bad or good performance. A Winner gives back to others in some way, shape or form. A Winner leads by example. A Winner encourages others to do what is right, despite how the world many feel. A Winner's resilient attitude motivates them to be either be an advocate or assailant of any cause they theoretically believe in . A Winner................NEVER QUITS.... which makes it even harder to ever lose, which is why I chose my mother to represent my definition of Winner!

Mom and Me

My mother, one of the sweetest & most loving woman i know, never won a championship ring. She was never a guess speaker on the Tonight Show, never sign an autograph like a Pro Bowl Eagle quarterback Mike Vick or Yankees Short Stop Derek Jetter. She never made a circus touchdown catch like Pro Bowl Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald. She never had a Triple Double like Heat forward all-star LeBron James. She never pitch a perfect game like Phillies ace Roy Halladay,.....but she is a champion in life because of her makes up everything with her resilient attitude! Which is why she's a winner!

As a friend, wife,mother & boss she always gave her everything & despite things not always turning out the way she would've like them to, she never gave into defeat. She always encouraged her friends, despite her friends not always agreeing with her prospective. She always encouraged my father to act right, despite him not always acting right. She always encouraged her children to do what was right, despite us not always wanting to listen. She always encouraged her workers to be better than her, despite them not always wanting to be at work. She NEVER gave into defeat, because of her Never Die Attitude which is why she is a Winner!

So do you have what it takes to be a Winner? Are you the type that strives for a better tomorrow & do you willingly give back to others? Are you a leader that lead by example? Do you encourage others to do what is right despite the opposition?

I think you are a Winner & regardless where you may be or what you're going thru, never give into defeat. Always remember that Winners Never Quit, but Quitters Never Win & by becoming A PERSON THAT REFUSES TO GIVE UP, you'll establish yourself as a Winner!

Verizon IPHONE??????!!!!

IPHONE for Verizon?????!!!

So why is Apple deciding to now offer Verizon users the IPHONE?

Simple...... Apple is threaten by Google's Android!

This Verizon gig will position their product to seize a larger share of the mobile pie by surpassing the Android in US Sales. According to businessweek.com the current U.S top sellers are 1) Blackberry(33%) 2)Android(26%) & 3)IPHONE(25%). This percentages shifty daily, but with Apple latest antic, expect the IPHONE to shift ahead of the Android & possibly knock Research In Motion Ltd.'S Blackberry out of the top spot. But will this Verizon version of the IPHONE offer more capabilities & features than AT&T's version???

Right now details are sketchy about Verizon's version, but according to several sources via Twitter & other media outlets, Verizon's version may be a 3G only device. This could mean that AT&T version might still outperform the Verizon version because of its 4G coverage.

BUT

AT&T spotty 4G coverage might prove costly if not address because Verizon's 3G coverage is very reliable!

So before jumping ship for this new verizon of the IPHONE, make sure you do your research because you wouldn't want to drop AT&T version or Google's Android or Research In Motion Ltd.'S Blackberry for a cool, yet error filled Verizon IPHONE!!!!

Verizon IPHONE sales start 2/10/2011.
