Go and hug your "Michael" by Maya Angelou...
Yesterday I cried watching the Michael Jackson memorial. I cried for a
little black boy who felt the world didn't understand him. I cried for a little
black boy who spent his adulthood chasing his childhood. And I thought
about all the young black boys out there who may too feel that the world
doesn't understand them. The ones who feel that the world does not understand
their baggy jeans, their swagger, their music, their anger, their struggles,

I’ am Changing
Neville B. Joseph™
I still hear the voices, still make bad choices and all the while I’ am changing.
Changing day by day, not listening to what they say,
For I’ am certain to change.
Changing the things that keeps me down,
Tired of being the talk of the town.
The change that I’ am making comes very slowly,
But if I Relinquish my past I just may become Holy.
Changing is a daily fight, for I often substitute wrong for right.
You sit and you judge me and you never wish me well…

While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked up stone
and
scratched lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man
took the child's hand and hit it many times; not realizing he was using
a wrench.
At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple
fractures.
When the child saw his father.....with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when
will my fingers grow back?' The man was so hurt and speechless;
he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times.
Devastated by his o…

Addicted to wrong is the name of this song.
No matter what I do, I always come back to you.
Years of fighting this battle, here I ‘am right back in the saddle.
Trying to do what’s right is always an upward fight.
A fight that I never win, from when my day begins.
If all I do is end up back with you,
Then what hope do I have to live right if you’re always in my sight.
I try to pull away, I always say, may tomorrow be a better day.
When you come by late at night,
by…

ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

Girls want to control the man in their life.
Grown women know that if he's truly hers, he doesn't need controlling.
Girls check you for not calling them. Grown women are too busy to realize
you hadn't.
Girls are afraid to be alone. Grown women revel in it-using it as a time for personal growth.
Girls ignore the good guys. Grown women ignore the bad guys.
Girls make you come home. Grown women make you want to come home.
Girls leave their schedule wide-open and wait for a guy to call and make…

LET NOTHING GOOD OR BAD UPSET THE BALANCE OF LIFE'
Hater/ By Maya Angelou
A hater is someone who is jealous and envious and spends all their time trying to make you look small so they can look tall.
They are very negative people to say the least. Nothing is ever good enough!
When you make your mark, you will always attract some haters...
That's why you have to be careful with whom you share your blessings and your dreams, because some folk can't handle seeing
you blessed...
It's dangerous…

BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER
By Maya Angelou
'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
that a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean livin''
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need…
