Alone

Maya Angelou, 1928 - 2014
Lying, thinking
Last night
How to find my soul a home
Where water is not thirsty
And bread loaf is not stone
I came up with one thing
And I don’t believe I’m wrong
That nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

There are some millionaires
With money they can’t use
Their wives run round like banshees
Their children sing the blues
They’ve got expensive doctors
To cure their hearts of stone.
But nobody
No, nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Now if you listen closely
I’ll tell you what I know
Storm clouds are gathering
The wind is gonna blow
The race of man is suffering
And I can hear the moan,
‘Cause nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone. 
To Maya Angelou
My hearts cries because I will never meet you face to face.
Your words add such encouragement to the world.
Your smile gives life and hope regardless of our ambiguity.
You love when there is no reason to love.
You share hope to those who are trapped in a cell without hope.
You shine a light in a tunnel of darkness.
You reduce confusion where the words are so deep and incomprehensible to the normal ears.
I cry because I never meet you face to face.
But I understand when the assignment is up you must return to the place you came from.
Only this time you return to that place with a begin date and end date and in between all the contributions you gave to society, regardless of the cross regional barriers. 
With much love 
Ojay

Step 1 Freedom

Context Freedom in Christ … 12 I wish that those who are troubling you would even mutilate themselves.  13 For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.   14 For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."… I came to understand my path to freedom is to understand our life's experiences are not just about me, women are emotional flawed. Women think they can say, do , and what ever they want.  I must say searching for a fairy tale or placing unrealistic expectations on your companion is the worse mistake women can make. I shared my journal to help you understand everyday challenges like our work, the kids, friends, and other stresses can create a unrealistic fantasy .  I am walking Into a new season, free from the fictional world I have created for myself. I begin to seek God for the answers to life's everyd...

Cyber Bullying

Cyber bullying is a real problem. Cyber bullying includes computer bullying - including  cell phones to harass, threaten, humiliate or otherwise hassle their peers.  More children are victims of neglect today. Parents are working much longer hours. Parents are not attending the parent- teacher meetings. Parents only communicating through their handheld devices with their children for less than 30 minutes a day.   They are searching the world wide web for a substitute of their parent's love and affections. I wrote a book to empower children, encourage them into share their vision, understand they are great, create their quotes, candid shots were displayed throughout the book. These images depict the beauty of our children. The children explain who they are and what they dream to become. Each image is posted along with a creative caption and subsidiary guide for parents was added by the authors enhance goal settings to improve our children's future. @orjanette @...

My name is Cindy not Ella

Image
 My name is Cindy I am not a princess or Queen. Most people think I am living in an imaginary fairy tale. Cinderella is not my name nor my fantasy. I am just plain old loving, caring Cindy. I marry a man but after I tell you the facts about my life and my story you will think I married Prince Charming. I come home from a hard day's work to a home where diner is fully prepared, house clean, laundry washed, put away, and the kids are already completed their homework. You would never imagine this man that does the things for me is black, intelligent, a hard worker, caring and loving. He reminds me of a Mandingo Warrior. He can handle the battles in the field, he knows how to claim his territory, and he comes home to receive the best of the best, his very own refuge. Wait ladies, I was not writing this to talk about him, but to help you explore your most intimate fantasy. Cindy is the lady next door to you. She is the women with  high intelligence, she works hard, she is a mother,...
