Reaching forward...

Happy New Year! Thank you to everyone that has followed my blog and those who have visited the site... The new year has started and its the time of year that many people reflect over the last year and decide what is going to happen differently in the new year. I am no different and I have decided to make some changes in my life. Sunday, Bishop W.C. Hunter my Pastor and mentor preached a message that has catapulted my thinking into a new direction. I was stuck in the past literally. My thinking was stuck on a part of my life that has changed dramatically in the last year. One day I felt like I was on top of the world and the next day everything changed and I could not get over that hurdle in my life. Sometimes we get stuck on the good memories that we used to have and so hung up on what could've been that we stop moving forward. I didn't try to get caught up in my past. I just was so shocked and hurt that I didn't realize that I wasn't really interested in creating new great memories. I felt like I was just going through the motions of my days and nights. I poured a lot into this situation and I got to the point that I was so tired mentally and just drained. I did everything I could on my part to make this particular situation in my life work :-) But alas, its time for me to back away and let the past go and look forward to new experiences! We live and we learn and this has truly been a lesson learned for me. I am in a new place and I find myself smiling more. Our mind is like a tape recorder and it replays the events in our life over and over until we create new memories to play in our mind. I was replaying the good memories that I have had and trying to forget the bad memories but replaying the good memories can be just as bad because you are still replaying the past. I will not let my past interfere with my present. I will reach forward to those things that are before me. I will monitor my thoughts! All of the experiences in my life have helped to create the woman that I am. I can not control what happens around me but I can control my actions and I am not the same person that I used to be. I am reaching forward and living in the present!

#NoriCares 1st "Big Give Back"

WOW!!!! I was overwhelmed with the people that responded and gave/donated to Nori Cares. For me this is a dream realized and I plan to keep going. I was just so excited and happy to be set up and moving on the project. The give-a-way was held on September 3rd at the Avondale Recreation center. This was the center I spent many summers playing and doing homework from elementary through high school. Everyone at the center was so welcoming and everyone had words of encouragement. It was awesome to have the give back at this location. I thank Jesus for the many people we were able to bless on that morning. Its all about being blessed and a blessing to someone else.

*** A special thank you to Carver Recreation center; this was the first place I had donation drop-offs courtesy of Radiant Star Chapter 859 and Zion Hill Chapter 249 for allowing me to team up for their annual "Rep Your City" community event. This is when I knew I was doing something greater than I hoped for. I did take a pic at my booth I had set up and also here is the logo for Nori Cares!

I would also like to send a special thank you to the following people/businesses:

Jamaine and Natalie Akins
Stephen and Tionna Wright
Fenesa and Joy Russell
