Lessons From The Little One


I’ve had the privilege and honor to see my niece “Miss Samiyah Free” grow and develop over the last 15 weeks.  It’s truly been an amazing journey in such a short period of time…  

“Miss Samiyah Free” has transitioned from the womb to the outside world, PRE-PARED and READY to meet the challenges of growing up…  As she was born with everything within her to rise to the various occasions that await her.  She’s most certainly guided by her instincts, which reminds me of how powerful “our inner knowing” is (I.e. The Spirit Within).

It’s astonishing how babies come into your life bringing you new vision, new perspective and lots of love and joy…  They also come teaching us lessons about life and reiterating those principles that are timeless, tried and true.

I’ve gleamed so many things from her presence…  It’s unbelievable!  She’s shown me the eyes are truly the window to one’s soul.  She’s renew the importance of having patience and living in the now (moment) as well as allowing things to take it’s natural course because we’re still going to go through whatever process is needed for evolution (transformation using the least resistant path possible), optimum growth and maturity. 

As I’ve watched her during feeding time and play (tummy time) it reminds me of the verse in THE BIBLE that says “Your Father knoweth what things you have need of.” (Matthew 6:8)…  All that’s needed on our part is to “Trust GOD” and ourselves during the course of events, knowing that everything is in divine order and “HE will not forsake us.”

Revise The Resolutions



Happy 2014!!!  Today makes the beginning of a new calendar year….  It brings on the feeling of a new start and a fresh outlook!  Heck, you might even get the impression that the clock’s time has been reset.  But whatever the feeling is, know that this “New Year” is a continuation of your life’s calendar. 
   
You have twelve new months of this year to add into your life’s next chapter.   And as you prepare to write this next episode, I challenge you to revisit some of those old resolutions, simply because you don’t want to write in some of the same things, nor do you want to reproduce previous sections that didn’t work…

On the other hand, for those resolutions that you forgot to add into your calendar, or started but didn’t finish, or wrote down but just never got around to doing them, I ask that you take a look at them as some may need to be revised and incorporated in this phase of your life.
     
So, as you begin to map out this year’s mission, revisit the things that were written…  Be it on paper, in your mind’s eye, or in your heart…  It’ll ensure that you get off to a great start!!  Nevertheless, whatever this “New Year” brings, it is my hope that it swings you into “high gear”, moving forward, pursuing and actively doing those things you need to do, want to do, are called to do and /or destined to do…

Be Dedicated and Determined to Operate Your Life With Purpose, 
On Purpose For A Purpose in 2014!!!
