Good Morning Family,

I would like to begin this day by sharing with you the following:

1.) As of right now, be grateful that you are alive. Life is the greatest gift of all. Nothing else truly matters. 

2.) As of right now, love yourself, believe in yourself and express yourself in a way that shows good character, strength, and confidence.  
 
3.) As of right now, begin eliminating your negative tendencies; jealously, hatred, selfishness, envy etc. A negative attitude toward others will not foster success.

4.) As of right now, feed your mind healthy fruits and vegetables: positive people, books, music, television, movies, etc. Those weeds in your garden is preventing the garden from growing. It's up to the creator to put you in a situation, but it's up to you to be brave enough to remove yourself from that situation. Prayer will not work. Prayer without effort is void. 

5.) As of right now, stop living your life  pleasing others. Live your life pleasing yourself.
 
6.) As of right now, stop living your life competing with others (fashion/material items etc.) There will always be someone who have more or less than you.

7.) As of right now, stop depending on others for your success and greatness. Put in your own effort and go get what you deserve. 

8.) As of right now, every earning you receive, rather it's a pay check or donation, take out a portion for yourself and put it in a safe place. Over time you will have a nice amount saved for a vacation that you truly deserve.

9.) As of right now, I love you and I'll always love you for the person that you are. 

10.) As of right now, share this with someone else. They may need this.

Warm Regards,
Your Brother, Jameel

First Generation College Graduates and The Entry Level Job Market

Image
Many of us have applied to many job positions using our High School Diploma and GED. We have found out that the job market was very difficult to get in with just a High School Diploma and GED. Many employers have skipped over our resumes and letters of interest after seeing that our highest level of education is High School and having no job related experiences. So we ask our parents, teachers, employers and various other individuals, what we have to do in order to secure the interested positions in the future? They tell us to further our education, “Go to college and get a degree”. We then say, “we can’t afford college, we don’t have any money”. Then they say, “Financial Aid, you can take out loans to cover your cost and you can pay them back after you graduate college.”   Now we believe a college degree is the way to securing a job position and a way to get out of poverty. “If I graduate from college, I can get the job I want and live comfortably… “If I gradua...

CAMILIA TERRY

          After doing my research on Camilia Terry, I came up with an opinion of my own. First thing, for those of you who say you would have beaten her behind and what not, you would have been in jail as well. I understand you all have hurt inside, but murder is the same sin as beating her up, lying and stealing. Negativity gets you nowhere in life. Do your research before judging someone. I’m sure many of you with these negative feedback's are young minded, uneducated, and have no connection with Jesus Christ.           Yes, it’s wrong to take someone else’s life, but picture yourself growing up in a foster home and the reason you were there in the first place is because your parents were dysfunctional and you were physically, mentally, sexually and emotional abused. Picture yourself as a single14year old mother in foster care. You think you found love and you didn’t because you don...
