The moment I laid eyes on you I knew
There was something about you
Didn't really know what was in store for me
Embraced your masculine physique
Brownskin, luscious lips, almond eyes
Your tone of voice soothed my mind
Never thought that embracing you would bring an epiphany
One that would tell a tale of you and me
You weren't my average pick
Yet I was drawn to you beyond me..
The way you moved, your swagger, your verbal skills
Little did I know the conversation would be tantalizing
You had me hanging on to every word
Every verse sent waves to my cerebrum
I captured the visual of your stanzas
My heart warmed & my soul ignited
There has never been another to do this to me
Fo real, your essence has kept me
The LOVE you give is unconditional
Yet it seems unbelievable & intangible
Never thought that this would be afforded to me
Yet I stand in awe THANKFUL
Unto YHWH for what had been given to me
You, My Husband, homie, lover, friend
In the end we all WIN
I'm Blessed with You
And You blessed with me
TRUE LOVE FINALLY
Dedicated to my beauski!! I love you!!!
Encouraging words from the Soul of a Woman Inspired by God...To God be the Glory..Praise YHWH!

Mumia Abu-Jamal
**My Disclaimer: I believe it is not the will of God that a man is to be held captive as long as Mumia Abu-Jamal has without just cause or substantiated evidence. I also Believe that Mumia still lives for a reason: A time and season for such a time as this!! It is time for the Nation of Healers to Rise Up! Free Mumia!!**
Mumia Abu-Jamal is a renowned journalist, author, activist, husband, father and grandfather from Philadelphia who has been in prison since 1981 for allegedly shooting Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner. Despite overwhelming evidence of his innocence, prosecutorial misconduct, constitutional violations in his trial, police coercion of witnesses and documented racism, he remained on death row in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania. He is known as the “Voice of the Voiceless” for his award- winning reporting on police brutality and other social and racial epidemics that plague communities of color in Philadelphia and throughout the world. Mumia has received international support over the years in his efforts to overturn his unjust conviction and continues to fight!!
I first learned of Mumia Abu-Jamal two weeks ago. His face had always been familiar to me ironically, but I did not know his story! To hear of this man's struggle for freedom moved me as I drove the streets of Atlanta listening to WRFG 89.3. The voice of Dr. Cornell West rang as he spoke on the importance of supporting the Freedom of Mumia!! Desmund Tutu has also called for the release of Mumia.
It surprises me that Mumia has been locked up for 30 years on death row and the USA Government have not killed him. Whether or not it is the federal or state prisons that have not gone through with his death penalty is beyond me. I mean it just baffles me the POWER of this man, his connections, and intelligence. Mumia still claims his innocence and no true evidence has been found to pinpoint him to this heinous crime, yet he remains detained. He is no longer on death row as of December 2011, which means he is now in general population after being in solitude for 30 years.
I truly believe that God is on this mans side! Many have died on death row with less chances then he (Troy Davis), yet Mumia remains. I believe the movement which thrives on the very essence of Mumia's freedom is one that is pivotal to the African American People and our RISE in the Amercian Culture. It's high time for the silence to end and the PEOPLE of the nation to rise up.
A time comes when silence is betrayal. ~Dr. Martin Luther King~
As we have been told if we continue to be silent we betray ourselves and our communities. We must live for the people! One Voice, One Body, One Power. I am looking forward to the nation's response to issues such as this one that will dictate the future of our children's legislation and democracy. I support the FIGHT for Mumia Abu-Jamal's Freedom and I believe in My People that WE can make a difference.

She Shall Be Praised
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
She looketh well to the ways of her household & eateth no the bread of idleness.
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
Favor is deceitful & beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord,
She shall be praised. Give her the fruit of her hands;
And let her own works praise her in the gates.
-Proverbs 31: 10, 25-31

Troy Davis:Executed without Evidence
ISAIAH 33:22 For the LORD is our judge,the LORD is our lawgiver,
the LORD is our king; it is he who will save us.
Dear brothers and sisters: It saddens me to write about this particular execution. There are many that have happened in the USA before this one and unfortunately if nothing is done more to follow. First, let me say that I am against the DEATH PENALTY!! Always have been and always will be! I believe it is not right for one to take the life of another to punish them for crimes committed against humanity unless God forbid an extreme measure is presented. I believe the party at hand should be imprisoned for life.
Because I am a devout spiritual being, I know that even God allows the unjust another chance. Troy Davis was convicted of shooting a cop in Savannah, GA back in 1989. Officer Mark MacPhail was working as a security guard at a Burger King restaurant when he intervened to defend a man being assaulted in a nearby parking lot... I won't go into much more detail of this story please research it for yourself when you get time to. I have listed on source site below:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troy_Davis_case .
Up until the time of his death Troy Davis declared his innocence and his last words to Officer MacPhail's family was:"I did not personally kill your son, father and brother. I am innocent,” and to those who executed him he said:“May God have mercy on your souls. May God bless your souls.” I must say that today I am saddened because I think back to the Casey Anthony case where minimal time served was sufficient. This man served 20+ years and with no evidence really at hand, along with many recanted statements. Witnesses now say they were coerced by the police to accuse Mr. Davis.
How is it, that he still gets the death penalty? I believe the system should have deliberated longer and used modern technology to look for evidence. Sadly Troy's life has ended and many mourn, not just for Troy but for a Justice system that seems to be so UNJUST. Fortunatley God has the last say so and even though I disagree with how things ended, God knew this day would come and how it would end.
I pray for those family members of Officer MacPhail's family as well as Troy Davis family. It is time for US Citizens to rise up and speak against all the heinous situations in the justice system. Many are executed all the time unjustly without enough evidence. Then there are those who are guilty and should be punished, but to death? I beg to differ..
As America believes in serving penalty to those who committ crimes, I believe the People of the USA should do everything in our power to insure the fairness of our system. Time for us to take action and rise up against the UNJUST that lies within our JUSTICE system. Truly yesterday September 21, 2011 is one that me and my family will never forget. Time to take action!! RIP Troy Davis.. May God Bless us all & have mercy on America....Psalm 27:4-5 One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock.
Psalm 9:9 The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Psalm 22:24 For he has not despised or disdainedthe suffering of the afflicted one;he has not hidden his face from him but has listened to his cry for help...
the LORD is our king; it is he who will save us.

Unhealthy Emotional SoulTies- BREAK FREE!!
There are times in our lives when we allow orselves to intertwine
With souls that are far from divine, but in the midst of life
We don't realize that this tie is an entrapment until it is revealed
Even though you have lived this way for so long
Accepting this tie as REAL love; truly that is not what it is
It is an evil force that has come to suck you dry and keep you bound
What does a healthy emotional soul tie look like?
It fills you up and adds to you
It Loves as God loves unconditionally and prevails thru all things
It never fails..
Unhealthy emotional soul ties destroy your very being
It disguises itself as REAL LOVE so that you accept it
It longs for you to harbour it and feed it so that it may grow
Only to leave you empty handed and feeling a void longing for it more and more
It will never satisfy you, no matter how long you hold on
It has come to kill your dreams of TRUE LOVE and make u feel inadeqaute
Because you have endured this pain so long it becomes a norm
You accept it and deny yourself the TRUTH
This Unhealthy Emotional Soul tie must be CUT
In order for you to prosper and elevate in TRUTH
So you ask what do I do?
Let go and Let God!!
Be honest and let the revelation of this truth marinate within you
Surrender to the only power that can bring you thru
Allow YHWH (God) to guide you on this journey
Truth will set you FREE and RELEASE this tie that has had u bound!
It's never too late to LIVE! The journey begins now...
Unhealthy emotional soul ties no longer...
Knowledge is Power... GET FREE!!!!

New Day, New Grace, New Mercies
Living in the USA has become a thought of the past. Many dream to get to the land of the Brave the home of the free, But me I am inspired to live beyond those dreams and fantasies. I live in this country yet I know the truths of poverty and ill stricken areas. No it's not like a third world country, but must we go forgotten and unspoken of?
The media of today portrays the USA as a well put together place when actuality it is far from that. Yet many struggle to get an education and vocation which will better their trade. Others struggle to make ends meet. No diploma or degrees to show just life experiences in survival of the fittest. I believe each day of life given is an opportunity for new graces and new mercies from on high. Yet we exist only because of a higher power.
Yes I believe in the Creator! I believe that there is one who is beyond reproach. One who fashioned this very world we now live in. One who holds the world in palm. The universe is not so vast that God does not know its interiors. Yet we live in a world that has many opportunties with few limitations. So I dare not to dwell in the statues of limits, but reaching beyond those things, I began to achieve my goals making my own path.
For I truly believe it were not for my creator the days would cease to come for me and life would be without abundant living. Today is a new day and I have chosen to write about it. What will you do with your day and opportunity given? This is just a thought. The USA is where I was given to live so therefore the foundation for my destiny lies within this land. So I shall go forth and seek out my destiny for truly it sees me.
The day has come and yet the journey continues... New Day, New Grace, New Mercies!!
