" LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY BUT, DON`T TRY TO LEARN EVERYTHING IN ONE DAY "
Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality.
If you can dream it, you can make it so.
It's never too late to be what you might have been.
The Road To Success Is Not Straight
There is a Curve called Failure
A Loop called Confusion
Speed Bumps called Friends
Red Lights called Enemies
Caution Lights called Family
You will have Flats called Jobs.
But,
If you have a Spare called Determination
An Engine called Perseverance
Insurance called Faith
A Driver called Jesus
You WILL make it to a place called Success!!

Phenomenal Woman
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's on the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees,
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
The palm of my hands,
The need for my care.
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Still I Rise
You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I`ll rise...
Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
'cause I walk like I`ve got oil wells
Pumping in my living room
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high, Still I`ll rise...
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops
Weakened by my soulful cries?
Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don`t you take it awful hard?
'cause I laugh like I`ve got gold mines
Diggin` in my own back yard?
You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I`ll rise!
Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise?
That I dance like I`ve got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?
Out of the huts of history`s shame --I rise
Up from a past that`s rooted in pain --I rise...
I`m a black ocean,
Leapingand wide,
Welling and swelling
I bear in the tide...
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear - I rise
Into a daybreak that`s wondrously clear - I rise!
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream & the hope of the slave...
I rise!
I rise!!
I rise!!!
- Maya Angelou
JUST BECAUSE
Just because no one has been fortunate enough to realize what a
gold mine you are, doesn`t mean you shine any less.
Just because no one has been smart enough to figure out that you
can`t be topped, doesn`t stop you from being the best.
Just because no one has come along to share your life, doesn`t
mean that day isn`t coming.
Just because no one has made this race worth while, doesn`t give
you permission to stop running.
Just because no one has realized how much of a woman you are,
doesn`t mean they can affect your femininity.
Just because no one has come to take the loneliness away,
doesn`t mean you have to settle for a lower quality.
Just because no one has shown up who can love you on your level,
doesn`t mean you have to sink to theirs.
Just because you deserve the very best there is, doesn`t mean
that life is always fair.
Just because God is still preparing your king,
doesn`t mean that you`re not already a queen.
Just because your situation doesn`t seem to be progressing
right now, doesn`t mean you need to change a thing.
Keep shining,
Keep running,
Keep hoping,
Keep praying,
Keep being exactly what you are already....
