Dream Weaver
Inhaling and exhaling boarding the dream weaver train
Closing my eyes, I hear the echoes of cries shivering in the cold rain
Continental men dressed in suits, united handshakes under the Sun in the act of war, blood embedding in the womb of Mother Nature, a symbolic olive branch of impending despair and gloom
Sealing the fate of mankind, the Book Of Revelations sorrows casted upon humanity’s earthly doom
The world encased in darkness it’s the new millennium’s perforated plight
A place where all awaiting souls congregate, to bring inner peace to self, you must give your obscurity a reason to shine its beautiful light
Your DNA is the temple of thy self
If man is made in the Creator’s image, then why does his heart not reap of Heavenly wealth
His broad shoulders carry in his vibrations, famine, racism, carnage, and death
Allow my purpose to stand on the backs of Yoruba Kings as I humbly bow to the Queens of my lineage
Gods found in the ordained creation of mankind, evolution in earth’s pilgrimage
Once when the letter ‘S’ was dropped lessening the meaning of divinity spelled backwards became
unjust, known as Dog echoed throughout the ages of time
Sentiments of theology is to have faith and believe given of its ideology, yet to atheism its unacceptable and resonates the agenda of darken minds
The deeds of survival within the passage of religion becomes mentally distorted and sublime
Love and compassion, the purest form of emotions we trust in judgment to display
Prayers needed when terminal illness manifests be that it may
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Fallen tears, hopefully, in your last breath in the divine I hope your vessel has been in trust
Inhaling the cosmic you must find your place, longevity for me has never been about the dynamics of life’s race
The code to life is when you stop and smell the roses, you realize in the fragrant scent your heart pulsates at its own pace
When you have humbly bowed in the face of death you will find the sobriety to invest in the afterlife
Remain silent in grace under pressure in the shadows of strife
Spirit and soul asunder energy never truly dies
Devine elevation of heart, mind, body, birth, death, and reborn, in this realm, our dreams, hopes, we try to reach, we may fail, but we must continue to try, and try, and try
Even a baby bird eventually learns how to fly
Love yourself, and have enough to share, and never covet anyone else’s footsteps and be empathic and comforting in everyone else whys
Assalamu Alaikum
Dream Weaver Part II
There was a time unto the sunrise the oceans navigating my sailing ship
The anchor to my heart, that told me love radiates from the deep abyss
Unlocking his chains that longs to be free
Rebirth from the shackles of his mind, from my home, we dream, as lost entities funnel in the sea
Give him freedom in his unwavering quest
I heard the calling as he appeared as a warrior wearing the crest of Allah's armored vest
His voice resonating like the roar of the jungle heard from afar
From the pilgrimage in his journey, his eyes upon the glory of following the Eastern Star
Who are you, my stalwart King
Do you feel the might of your bite to wear upon the mane of your head, Heaven’s sacred bling
The crown of Elohim He gives unto the bearer of an unwavering soul
The hieroglyphics found in his heart, cradled by his mind, in the freedom of his movement, his spirit becomes his sacred scrolls
I cannot hold any man’s hand if he refuses to stand
Yet I will clasp onto his truth, as being a woman to uplift him as a man
Uphold and validate the illumination of his wisdom
Paired with his Kingdom, as one, we shall come
Take my incantations blessed from the core of this Yoruba Goddess’ heart
Can you lead my footsteps to pave the path when I lose my way, where we both survive earthly chaotic dark
I do not survive by the caldron of money, I have the love of the universe, it's my consecrated honey
I do not need the discomfort of fame
I am coveted by the Supreme High in Him, the oath of my survival is found in His name
I dwell in quietness of solstice solitude yet can uplift any King’s mane
To his rightful throne, his superlative glory
Above the stars, we shall reach the skies, devoid of Hell’s purgatory
I am the feebler vessel in this realm we call life
Henceforth, resilient, honorable, and softness in my comfort to step into my stilettos to become of any man’s wife
No given strife
Only a blessing if his mind is in union with mine
Our breaths entwined
Hand in hand found within the doctrine of mystique’s sublime
Where we can talk, debate about trivial pursuits
Sharing the essence of my sacred juice
Upon his muscular chest, my intellect tenderly rests
We blend in and out of time
Our powers to be as we seek
Greatness defines
Dialects speaks, invocations laminated as potent as droplets of vintage wine
Shalom
The Day After Tomorrow Uplifting Your Chakras
Into the calling of the night
Where sacraments burn the candles upon the casting of dim light
Defaced divine offering unto mankind
No tears to offer when the hunger is not getting fed unto borrowed time
By the bell of the finality creed
In the window of time hallowed be thy sound
Seen the fate of holiness without the sphere of compulsion in the greed
The beautiful nakedness in the glory, coveted the offering in the absence of the seed
I have so much indoctrinated fortitude unto humanity’s mind I must still share in this lifespan, mental charities I must give its just due
In the window of cosmic time, it does not consist of entertaining the slothful in thought, or give the greater of my goodwill intellect, to the blinded without a cause, or befallen to the egotistical wraith of the naysayer, or fool
Bow your head then elevate your worth
Life is about living, showing compassion to the ill, the mentally abused, and the ones whose silence keeps them wrapped in the blanket of their own hurt
Lift your head, and tell the weary how to remain faithful, advise them the secrets to the soul is found in their rebirth
If not found true of thee
Or the chimes of those ethos, pathos, and logos that keeps us sane we must balance naturally embedded in you and me
The Seven Chakras, let them astral plane to kiss the Heavens, bless the Earth, and purify the Sea, in each dimension, I will tenderly commence
Ancient of time from way back when
It's a part of my temple’s emancipation
My soulful dedication
The sultry undertones of my poetic liberations
As I humbly bow to you in divine salutations
With much respect, sit down, step down, or move aside, please
And allow the warmth of the Sun to shine at ninety degrees
As the saying goes, one head shall always keep the eye on the sparrow to give love and direction to the baby and civilization’s carriage
The other shall keep the head buried in the sand only to feel one’s own provoked ill will, rooted in Cain’s narcissisms, in hell shall be the marriage
Assalam Alaikum
Love and Universal Hugs, always,

The Keys To A Healthy Mind, A Peaceful Temple, To An Uplifting Soul (Thursday Girls Night Out Health Discussion)
It is November and we are heading into a new month. This is the time to plan in preparing to take care of your temple with the benefits of eating healthy and being in a great state of mind.
I dedicate this essay to anyone who is diabetic or who has been diagnosed as borderline diabetes, in addition, the risk and the concerns involved when diabetes goes uncontrolled by adopting a poor lifestyle; an inadequate diet, non-motivation, and not keeping the Chi at its peak to perform at its maximum performance.
What is diabetes
Diabetes Mellitus refers to a group of diseases that affect how your body uses blood sugar (glucose). Glucose is vital to your health because it's an important source of energy for the cells that make up your muscles and tissues. It’s also your brain’s main source of fuel.
Diabetes I, mainly happen when your immune system destroys cells in your pancreas called beta cells. They’re the ones that make insulin.
Diabetes II is a chronic condition in which the body does not use insulin properly. This causes blood sugar levels to rise, which can lead to other health problems.
Gestational diabetes only occurs during pregnancy but may resolve after the baby is delivered.
It is very crucial to take care of one’s self from head to toes.
An Eye Exam
The first exam I will recommend is a complete dilated diabetic eye exam. During your screening the Ophthalmologist or Optometrist will rule out certain aspects that could be a deterring factor of having a normal vison acuity, such as to rule our Diabetic Retinopathy, Macular Degenerative Disease, or Glaucoma and during that eye exam, early Cataracts will be ruled out.
Please make sure your get this exam on a yearly basis.
Dental Checkup
Most people do not realize being a diabetic can affect the health of your gums, therefore, please make it a priority to floss, and use a non- alcoholic antiseptic mouth rinse I cannot stress the importance of that regiment enough; it keeps gingivitis away (inflammation of the gum line), and the smile is what surely attracts. Your pearly whites are your signature to the world.
If you have dentures, please keep your dentures clean prior to usage.
Please make sure this exam is done every six months to a year.
Prostate Exam (Men Health)
Gentlemen, please make an appointment to get your Prostate checked and have your Physician/Nurse Practitioner also order you a PSA.
The PSA test is a simple blood test ad it is used primarily used to screen for prostate cancer. The blood test measures the amount of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in a man's blood. PSA is a protein produced by both cancerous and noncancerous tissue in the prostate, a small gland located below the bladder in males
Foot Exam
This is the biggest overlooked exam, and please pay close attention to your feet, your skin in general. There are several concerns for a person living with diabetes or caring for a diabetic loved one.
The toe nailbed should be kept dry and clean at all times, and not yellowish, if so, then there is most likely a fungal, which may require medical attention for a prescribed topical fungal emollient.
The legs should be supple, as in good vascular circulation and no signs of pitting edema (Pitting edema is when a swollen part of your body has a dimple (or pit) after you press it for a few seconds).
If there is any numbness or tingling to the toes, or legs, make sure you tell your physician to check you for Diabetic Neuropathy, that is a medical condition that befalls many diabetics.
Diabetic Neuropathy is a serious diabetes complication which primarily affects fifty percent of people with diabetes. This condition is a type of nerve damage that can occur if you have diabetes. Anyone who lives with diabetes and when the glucose is high or uncontrolled it can impair nerves throughout your body. Diabetic neuropathy most often damages nerves in your legs and feet.
You should get your feet checked every time you have a follow-up appointment with your physician.
There are other tests that should be done during a diabetic exam, such as getting your urine tested, to rule out any abnormalities regarding the kidney function; to see if there is any glucose, or ketones noted(High ketone levels in urine may indicate diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a complication of diabetes that can lead to a coma or even death) the Ph Balance (this urine result looks at how acidic or alkaline a person’s urine is, the average value for urine pH is 6.0) WBC (bacteria) RBC (possible trauma to kidney or stones) or nitrate (UTI).
Fasting Labs (A test whereas you will refrain from eating or drinking anything after twelve midnight).
A Cholesterol test for a diabetic it is very vital and an overall key to keep the kidneys functioning and hypertension controlled.
Most physicians will prescribe some form of statin medication, it is use as a precautionary measurement for someone who also has high blood pressure, and diabetes, a medication combination to make sure you do not end up on dialysis after the kidneys fails to function and filter out its toxins, therefore, take your medication(s) as prescribed.
This test should be repeated only after comparison from the last results or if there is a slight elevation and your physician has to make any adjustments to your medication(s) or supplementing with another.
A1C is a test to advise your physician how well you control your blood sugar levels. Most results show your average over the past 3 months, and if you take your medications, exercise and modify your diets, with the four groups on the food pyramid, then they should be within a normal range.
For women who have diabetes
It is a known fact, you are more prone to suffer from reoccurring yeast infections, therefore, make sure your get your GYN exams and your Pap Smears every two years and every six months for any abnormal Pap Smear, in addition, if you are forty and over, you may as well get a mammogram, and earlier if you fall heredity to Breast Cancer.
Therefore, if you are a diabetic, please take care of yourself… make this your year to shine, it will be fall soon and you want to make sure you are feeling good from the inside and admired from the outside.
And that has been a medical summary from my heart to yours.
Love and Hugs, always, and please smile

The Keys To A Healthy Mind, A Peaceful Temple, And Uplifting Your Soul (Thursday Girls Night Out Health Discussion).
Part II
Before I even begin, ladies please make sure you check your breasts for this month (December) and if you are of age to get a yearly mammogram, please do not hesitate to get one, sometimes it is better to know than to find out some unsettling new much later. As a nurse, it is disheartening to hear from a female she wished she had gotten screened, much sooner, well I am your cheering fan to make sure you do at some point in your livelihood
Okay ladies and yes, even gentlemen too, within this year, let’s get into the mindset to motivate, that means we are embarking on another seasonal shift. I will advise you to start managing your overall health. And no, you do not have to be a star or wealthy to give yourself a star rated pass to your health.
Get into the mindset, you must represent yourself in all matters of the heart and all phases of the mind from infancy, through adulthood.
The body is designed to add years to your life, not for you to abuse its beautiful capabilities where you begin to deteriorate your temple from the inside out, drugs and drinking. I know we all have our habits, our quirks, but when it is detrimental to the thinking process, you are selling your ass to obtain it, you need it to calm the sickness/addiction, or it disrupts the family unit, then I will say get help, or just do not start.
The mind is terrible thing to waste, therefore, use it, or the decline of those regenerated brain cells, which brings us such useful information, will decline.
Invest in becoming a member of a local gym, if you are not for sure of the site or what it offers, advise your member recruiter you will think about becoming a member, put can he/she offer you a week pass to see if you are best suited for their facility, with that being said, investigate the equipment, the staff, the personal trainers, or if your membership includes any classes offered.
Be observant of their food or beverage court, take note if they sell any beverages on site, versus vending machine, it is also a bonus to me when both are offered. Make sure the food items even if it say, organic, certified, or is FDA approved, and after any spinning class, or cardio related class, during the recovery, make sure you try to stay away from those energy drinks, or supplements, the body has its own tolerance for pain, and heart calming effects and you help your heart, kidneys.
When you use your body against resistance, it gives you more defined definition of lean muscle mass, especially for us ladies, where we just want to look fit, mmm... sexy legs, sexy arms, and a flat jeweled abdomen. So, working out using your own sheer willpower is more preferable than fade diets the rewards will be yours in the end.
I have much respect for the citizens in society that have to depend on some form of surgical procedure due in part, their weight has become a medical concern, and if no method of medical invention is warranted, then it threatens to the health of the person.
We will be marching out of Autumn soon enough, this is that time to make sure you take care of heart, mind, body, and soul.
The brain we have the sole pleasure to use no matter how we live, who we love, or where we live. The mind never quits thinking, planning, plotting at times.
Henceforth, make it your priority to instill it with knowledge, wisdom, adopt productive thoughts, and engage your dialect that will be uplifting and beneficial to the cognitive awareness of its listener, and give us the discernment to know the difference between right from wrong,
It is time to focus on my third eye. A pathway to the evolution where the secret to the civilization exists in so many parables.
The pineal gland is a relatively small gland centered at the core of your cranium (brain) in recent studies it is known to play a significant role of tapping into the higher awareness of oneself. Once you become aware of its potent spiritual power and the gateway to unlocking the transverse nature of your cosmic being. You can learn to become one with earth and spirit.
Be advised the pineal receives an abundance of energy among any other gland in your body. It seems there are 17 glands in a human body. Some are ductless and others have ducts. The main way to categorize them is as exocrine glands or endocrine glands.
In comparison to all your other vital organs; just to name a few, your lungs, your heart, and your brain. However, for such a miniature gland it is the receptive source to receive the highest concentration of energy.
The pineal gland is overly sensitive to light. It is best known as the component for sleep and waking phases.
Whenever your pineal gland is compromised or is off centered. It is an insomniac’s worst nightmare.
In essence, 30% of the population in the US suffers from insomnia. It does not provide melatonin with a natural effect of the brain that regulates sleep. In addition, while stress plays a major role here, we can’t ignore the fact that a compromised pineal gland doesn’t produce melatonin the way it’s supposed to function.
I will have to say in the spiritual laws of the seven Chakras, the pineal gland primary function as an inner third eye, the Ajna
Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is produced in the human pineal gland. In fact, DMT can give free rein to the mind’s superior powers to hone in and give credence to a higher perception of consciousness.
For most of us, our pineal gland becomes dormant early in life, in several initial studies once we become an adult, it has been proven it dawdles into a weakened state of existence.
The main contribute is the fluoride added to our drinking water and toothpaste we utilize, then you must take into consideration several other damaging factors; processed foods, drinks which contain carbonate, and a lack of the ultraviolent rays we get from sunlight.
Can your pineal gland ever be restored to its original glorious once channeling into the subconscious on a cosmic level?
Yes it can, once you begin to as the saying goes, 'you are what you eat' and when you do, please maintain a balanced diet by eating healthy, and pamper your temple, whereas, it will certainly be beneficial to your, heart, mind, body, and soul, therefore, you can be attuned when summoning positive energy by enrichment of wisdom, boosting your psychic abilities, which, we are all born with the knack, yet most of us are absence to employ.
The pineal gland is the passage to the doors of a higher realm.
In life the road that you walk is for your shoes…how tight they may seem to someone else. Have faith as you continue your journey, gain knowledge, it is always the thirst for power.
Love and Hugs, always, and smile

The Keys To A Healthy Mind, A Peaceful Temple, And Uplifting Your Soul (Thursday Girls Night Out Health Discussion).
Part III of III
Well, hello everyone we have just crossed the helm of another month, and before I get to my blessing and divine salutations wow, can you all believe we are already in the moments of the twelve months may you celebrate your life each day, as if it was your birthday celebrated in the moments of awaited time.
Winter is just around the corner, and that extra hour of sleep does help the body, and it does regulate all your endocrine glands. Ladies, that will mean upon your Grand Rising, you will most likely be awakening with that puffiness around the eyes, more irritable until the body gets in sync with the natural rhythm of time’s new adjustment, and please take into consideration your cognitive awareness will be slightly off, where your melatonin a secreted hormones from the pineal gland, which is a natural sleep derivative released to your temple.
Melatonin, a natural hormone, is primarily produced by the pineal gland this hormone is primary released in the brain at night, and its beneficial in adding in our sleep throughout our sleeping to a wake cycle.
If weather is permissible attempt to get out as much as you can to absorb those beautiful Autumn fading sun rays, and in getting a dose of Vitamin D, from the sun.
For senior citizens, if you are active and if you cheerful about moving about form a walking group and just get out a take a leisure stroll through Mother Nature. If you are into gardening, my second passion other than traveling and running marathons.
Let me add, ladies, please take care of the inner thoughts of your mind when thought are not conducive to uplift, our psyches, the nakedness of our truth, we become the reflection of our own dissatisfactions, our own envy, our insecurities began to peak, and we become the vessel of our own demise.
Walk in faith, if it cannot kill you, it can only make you stronger.
Never dwell in the fallacy of anyone’s gloom and doom, it’s theirs, allow them to own it and retain.
I know this adage may sound cliché, but ‘the meaning of life is to live through the windows of others.
How can any person look into the house and see a starving child, and walk on by, with that being said, no one in this world have time to make themselves miserable, what is the validity in that.
Self-preservation and self-love bring so much divine gravitational, it becomes the spoken truth of your action, it gives credence to your deeds.
For me, personally, I will always try to thrive on the wings of high vibrational energy, seeking to learn, to explore. In this day and in this lifetime, being, no seconds or the next breath is guaranteed. You need to create your own happiness, live through your own storms, and celebrate through your trials and tribulations, after all, those are your darkest hours, the uncertain times, when faith is lingering in the air, and the easy way out seems like the best course of action taking the detour through life.
That is what you consider your crossroads in life, no one walks in the wrong direction in life, its costly, mistakes add up, and time is never a beneficial factor.
Subsequently, show the aura of your persona what you are made of manifest positiveness through your endurance, after all, you are the navigator of your own testimonies, make it shine to give others, hope, feed their minds with daily encouragements, it is always warrantied for someone who may have lost the way.
May you feel the wind at your back as you gallop toward the embracement of the wind.
Love and Hugs, always, and smile

A Young Woman’s First Menarche Celebration
I would like to wish everyone a great start to your week ahead and make sure you do get out and enjoy all the festivities of Autumn and once we reach that beautiful Winter Solstice.
This is the look when your Goddaughter and her friends, all four of them have bombarded your office and begin taking selfies near my walled accomplishments and chastised me for not having my picture on the wall...
Therefore, here is the picture my Goddaughter snapped no makeup at my New York office.
We had a very nice day... by the end of the day, I had a patch of green spray in my hair to commence our day, prior to seeing Wicked the movie, I made so many Tick Tocks and Facebook videos I do not want to even stare into another camera, or striking a pose, be advised I had to stop at the green lipstick.
Since we are on the subject of pampering our teenagers who have crossed the threshold of womanhood
Blooming From A Teenager To Becoming A Woman
When a teenager becomes a woman, in Western Culture, Western Civilization is mandated she becomes eighteen, however is that really when a female teenager in society becomes an official result, or do we constitute a teenager is a woman be the first signs of impending puberty.
When she gets breasts, her pubic hair begins to sprout, or when she has her first menstrual period
If any woman can think back to you first menstrual period, I know you may have some stories.
Okay, I am in Godmother mode here, the movie Wicked was such a blast to watch and just experience diversity on the big screen for a while, and I encore this movie for anyone who has little time who can comprehend what is occurring.
What Exactly Is A Menarche Is It A Menstrual Period
The word menarche refers to your first period, or your first time menstruating. Most people get their periods between 11 and 14, as we speak there are several teenagers who are much younger and within the medical community when this occurs, at times, not always, there could be a gynecological medical condition.
I remember I had to wait every bit of fourteen when I got my first Aunt Flow and then the traditions, which I will explain in my Part Two.
I would go around the globe to explore how other families celebrate their daughter's first menarche, in some countries, including my culture it is sacred rite of passage when a teenager become a woman.
Most teenage girls will have some form of symptoms prior to having their first menarche some of these reported symptoms may include light bleeding, the main culprit is cramping, oh my… I do not think most teenagers will experience mood swings, and I say that what I am going on thirty-four in 2025, remember I was roller skating in France... my mother was still here on the earth.
That day made me feel special, then I went off for some months, I was spotting until I became regulated.
My younger sister and I had a day of festivities, I remember my father shooing us all at the house.
Still to this day I hear my youngest sister asking my mother can she get her some presents when she bleeds, me and my mother just laughed.
Those words still echo after all these years, and I get misty eyed for my home in France and missing my beautiful mother.
In addition, the first menarche of any teenager is considered a beautiful milestone in commiserating
An important milestone during puberty and this is the time when a female is capable of becoming pregnant.
In Part II, I will examine some of those gynecological disorder and go around the word to see how other countries celebrate a teenager becoming a woman.
Ladies if you can remember when you got your First Menarche how did your mother celebrate your special day.
Enjoy your day, have faith, and please smile.
Love and Hugs, always,

Mental Solitude In A Modern Society
Well ladies, we are seven day into the last month of December, and I would like to extend some last minutes novice from off my Nurse wish list, from becoming financial stable in an unsure economy to just to increase your credit score, and you do not have to be a financial investor or a stockbroker, these are some of my favorite way I discover way to save, and to challenge myself to reach my goal.
I have been with my Goddaughter, and I have glimpsed the future through her eyes, it appears we are all somehow connected by gigabytes and Wi-Fi.
Now with, there are so many ways to make money from off modern technology, okay, I will talk in simplistic terms, making money, bringing your dream and aspirations into fruition.
Any advice, statement, should always be further research in your favor.
Hum, now that I have garnered your humble attention, let’s find a way to make that silver dollar increase in value, or increase those coins.
I have taught my Goddaughter what I call the intermediate necessities when it comes to managing money, and not relying on the outpouring reliance of others, and ladies, try this with your daughter or son, for w week, I can assume children will be going on holiday break and once they return in 2025 see how much they have saved and then encourage that beautiful path of your child learning how to save money, and it is best to always teach a child to begin saving earlier, so when your daughter, or your son is asking for those funds to go and pay those million dollars sneakers, you can advise them to spend their ow, you will be surprised how that idea just miraculously goes away….
Okay, enough talking let's get to saving and making money
This rule of dedication has been a spiritual award to me, and I would like to share it with you.
If you have a jug, then grab that jug, decorate with something that is mentally soothing to return your eyes to, and make sure, you place a slit in the top where a dollar could pass through with was, that is the jar you label with whatever floats your boat, my jar has Elvis on it, if you know this jar, which is, well was sold during the Christmas time and it was stuffed with popcorn, oh, excuse me I ventured didn’t I, as I was nearing to say, label your jar/jug with words that mean something to you, I say that, due in part, you will be friends with this home makeshift bank, this is the beginning of yourself-challenge, then you will need another jar, once again you will decorate this jug/jar with pizazz.
The second jar is considering your interest jar/jug.
This is where the challenge comes into play. See if you can encourage your daughter/son to place a dollar in the first jug/jar and for every dollar there has to be interest, therefore, please encourage your daughter or son to place fifty cents in the second jug/jar, allow this transaction to begin on 1/01/2025 for 365 say (year) and at the end of the year, see how much your little money Financial Wizkid has saved, the next year increase to two dollars and a dollar for interest, so forth.
The rule is only one dollar, and only fifty cents for the interest, for an entire year… My Goddaughter now can understand the boundaries of spending and saving.
As we are about ready to cross the threshold of a new year, make sure you take the time to renew yourself daily, with a meditate state of mind, recharging those seven chakras has always been beneficial to me, and take the time to uplift yourself, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
2025 will be the perfect time to purchase a parcel of land, as I stated the land is very inexpensive to purchase land or a pt in New Mexico, and if you do decide to buy any land make sure it is a zone where you can develop for commercial or for sole ownership.
Most of you who have medical, dental, vision, insurance through your pace of employer, make sure if you are offered to sign up for a 401K plan or if you have one, make sure it can be rolled over if you were to leave you place of employment or could be rolled into an IRA account if you are retiring soon, everyone at one point has to worry about their retirement or just simply having funds once you mature to that golden age of enjoying the fruits of your success.
Ladies, make sure you are taking care of your skin, make that Grand Rising before you face the world a sacred occurrence, we have not quite entered the Winter Solstice.
I have gotten so many inquiries about my bathroom ritual therefore, I thought I would do a live blog from the room every woman feels at her best, her cleansing sanctuary where we detox the mind and give praise to the wonders of our skin.
It is soothing to light some candles and station them throughout your bathroom, setting the atmosphere, for me, a goat milk bath with just a drop of baby oil, your skin will feel like it has been touched by the Hymns of Heaven.
Whatever your cleansing ritual, method, or routines, enjoy the time with yourself, and prior to completely drying, make sure to rub your favorite moisturizer into your skin, it locks in your moisture.
This I one of my favorite smoothies and it keeps my metabolism balance, whereas I am not famished or feel the full
If you are allergic to some or all of the ingredients, please do not even attempt to try
Ingredients
1 medium sized cucumber, about 6 ounces, peeled and cut into large chunks
2 large leaves of curly kale or lacianto kale, stems removed
1 pear, cored and cut into large chunks
3-4 celery ribs, about 2 ounces, cut into large chunks
Juice of 1 lime
½ cup pineapple juice
3-4 ice cubes
Enjoy that detox smoothie
And yes, it is early however, as a reminder, ladies, please check your breasts, bi-manually if you are of age to schedule yourself a mammogram.
I am getting report, that Lung Cancer has increased among woman, and it is baffling due in part not all women are reported smokers, and I question that finding, is it the teratogens in the air we are breathing between commercialism and corporation polluting our air quality, or some company leaking toxins in the water, or some train carrying flammable or environmental poison, derail, and leaning its cargo contents into the soil.
However, if you are a lifelong smoker, a habit in passing, I have heard is very difficult to manage, subsequently, if you are ready to take a first step in stopping, there are conventional ways
Next year, and by the will of Allah, may your own hands grace the soil to place your own crops, the tomato is always the easiest vegetable to plant, and grow, can be harvested very quickly, it a new beginning, utilize those nature gifts we were given and that is to take care of our King, our heirs and heiresses’ welfare, and respect Mother Nature.
Until the spiritual entwined of our souls always for the greater good, please take care of your mind, heart, and body and have respect for others who have lost the way, or who cannot.
Love and Hugs, always,

Make sure you know the difference between a pass post book and passport card
It sounds like you're asking about the difference between a passport card and a passport book. Here's a quick rundown:
Passport Book
• Usage: Can be used for international travel by air, sea, or land.
• Appearance: Traditional booklet with multiple pages for visas and stamps.
• Cost: Generally more expensive than a passport card.
• Validity: Valid for 10 years for adults and 5 years for children under 16.
Passport Card
• Usage: Can only be used for land and sea travel between the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, and the Caribbean.
• Appearance: A wallet-sized card.
• Cost: Less expensive than a passport book.
• Validity: Same as the passport book—10 years for adults and 5 years for children under 16.
The choice between the two depends on your travel needs. If you plan to travel internationally by air, you'll need a passport book. If your travel is limited to nearby countries by land or sea, a passport card might suffice.
If you decide to take a cruise in 2025, your passport will definitely come into hand

Creation By A Queen’s Crown Apparel™
A Queen's Oath
Love cradled of pulsating desires where dual souls stand
Resonating beguiling voices wandering across the sacred land
Sullenness of a sojourn heart to the wind has spoken
Unto the stars allow my wish for our union to be awoken
Is it me or my gentle purrs
The theology of our faith, must be unfurled
Take the offering of my love upon the lay of my bosom
And take state of your insignia in your name my King
Let thy ruler be thy will, as the Dove flies with soaring wings
To the fourscore of the winds
Apparition lullabies to the monarch where cupid’s bow will in sorrow bend
Lifting of insidious laminated unto the beast roars
Calm unto the sea where hollowness weeps upon shores
Tattered wings and battered souls encased in whispered dreams
The lioness tenderly roars from sicken wounds all to see have seen
Mentality to the star's oracle cries in the chosen of its deviant fear
Time now stands still echoes of ancient tears
Cold winds comfort thy thirsty hearts
Warmness succors the Chi for eyes traveling life’s journey in the dark
Begotten softly speaks of wisdom vitality and age
Commissary to the monarch who bemoans of rage
Kiss upon my hand thy shall grasps to softly entwine
Fables of deception told of its grandiose by vanity assumption by its covet designs
Come hither my King and rest of thy vintage soul
Closed mouth speaks of moments scribbled on scrolls of old
I will make this night as you please
Tomorrow you shall inhale our ingrained scent in the pleasure of our yesterday sheets
Your Queen in the nudity of her desires you claim as you come deep unto me
I need
Your love my rapture will appease
In my marriage bed stirring the echoes of thy fire in my arms passion we shall greet
Tongues bonding in vain prepared feast
A queen’s voices on the fourscore of the midnight breeze roams
Divinity of Craving sings in glee of life’s cherished song
The King's kiss upon my lips
Duality of simplicity where souls shoot meteorites upon the galaxy and then earthly collide
Houses upon sands built of merger wages
Bricks upon bricks steadfast in the limelight of potions, angling merciless upon sacred pages
Who lips dare say what the hungry eyes see to impetuous think
Love and rapture merge in the calling of a cosmic blink
Oh, thy Sire under my mystique not asunder from thee
Captivated by his virility while moving above me
A love under a Queen’s cosmic grace
Unto my King's wishes, my flavor he tastes
His soul thrust unto mine as surely as the calling to the depth of the sea
In the cometh of the dawn of the sun, we shall find delight in the sultriness when he moves deep into me as I utter his name when I speak
When he divides me with his loins in the craving of my skin it slowly seeps
Shalom

The Commencement Of The Tying Of The Obi Ceremony
Washington, DC
This is like the second time you all are catching me without make-up on, and I freshen my lips gloss
I do hope all who are reading this may it find you and your family safe, and festive around this holiday.
This is part two of enriching your teenagers, especially before peer pressure get the best of them, and for any female rather they are of menstruating age, please make sure you always sit down and discuss any life changing moments prior to them occurring, and please make sure you stay updated on your children’s Well Child visit,/Annual Wellness Exams, once your teenager hit the peak of puberty the body at times excels in growth what we refer to as a growth spurt, a female will begin to notice physically changes to the her body; the development of breasts, and pubic hairs and your teenage male will begin to notice subtle changes; his interest in girls will become evident, facial hair due to hormonal changes.
I will not elaborate at this point, due in part it will be discussed in depth on a later posting.
This brings me to the nature of my posting; find a hobby of interest you and your teenage daughter can share together. I say that with a grain of salt and with patience, understand, and laughter.
I have been jet setting all over the globe with my Goddaughter this month because her parents travel a lot, and my pockets and home is the second refugee.
However, we were just in Washington, D.C she was advancing from her green belt and since I am a certified green belt, something I do not like to divulge, because it details me mentioning my Goddaughter, and I ty to shied her privacy at all cost, however, please allow me to tell this story behind this, as I stated, I am a green belt and I remember every bit as if this was yesterday, I was still in college and for my Goddaughter’s birthday I bought her lessons for the advancement to become a certified black belt in karate... she is nowhere near it, but she is good within her Obi status, and I also signed her and myself up for fencing beginner’s lessons, she had exceeded in chess, and fencing when she feels like Fencing.
Are you with me, still to this day, I hate to admit it, but I was twenty-nine years old, and when you are advancing for another elevation in your Obi, you must be proficient in kata and kumite movements, I am very good at the green belt level.
It was in December with the Official Tying of the Obi followed by the trophy ceremony, which takes place at the ending of the year to place members in the appropriate belt title for the beginning of the following year.
During the year I was due to advance, I had to spar with this woman, she was thin as a mint, witty and we always laugh ...ooo that fucking bitch, yes, she put me on my ass, hurt the fuck out my back, I broke a nail, ya’ll I just laid there, embarrassed, this little woman flipped my ass and pinned me to the mat and went on to get her blue belt.
I laugh now, but back then, and if you can imagine, not do not image that embarrassment and that comes from underestimating people’s interactions, that shit still pissed me off, she knocked the wind out of me... She is now a certified black belt and teaches at the Karate School...wow, it just goes to say, time does not wait for anyone, subsequently, make it count for all that you do, I am looking at my friend from across the room getting her class ready for their proficient demonstrations.
I have never practiced beyond my green belt, I somehow ended up going to the class for my CCL license to carry; however, I still have to put on my Gi and tie my Obi around my waist to get on the mat and when I participate to show my Goddaughter I am still supporting her through her teenager years in addition, the pre-stretching does help me to softly calm my Charkas, and our lessons are already paid up through 2027.
I felt a spiritual calmness and please when I was the presented my Goddaughter her next blue belt, I am such a very proud Godmother
Thank goodness her parents will take her to her fencing compliments, for me… whew and softly sighing…now I can get back to my business here.
Everyone please enjoy your teenage, no matter what stage your female teenager have blossomed into or for parent who are reading a male teenager, they are excessing into, just make sure before they leave out for school, or if they reside at home and attend college, just say, I love you, ask them are simply okay, seconds are not promised, and now that they are hindering the communication for student by restricting their cell phone usage during daily lessons, yet, just make sure you always pray for child/children’s/s safety to and from school.
If you are an African American parent, please listen , be advised this is a call of action, there is an increase of missing children, and please believe me, the news is not advising the public of this, therefore, please think before you send your child to the store unattended, and make sure your child has an mergence phone number in their bookbag, stitched in the back of their coat, you will be surprised of how many kids do not know their phone number or address if they were to ever get lost, or get off at the wrong bus top, parents be pro-active with your children and teenagers, because some derange person(s) are is stealing our babies. and I say that as a Call To Action, the hue of our skin it is not being marginalized, so please as a favor to me and for any parent know where your child/children are al all moments of the day once they are out of school.
I do hope everyone have a peaceful Friday and humbly weekend, have faith in all things impossible and smile

Rainbows
There was an elder woman who sat upon the highest majestic mountains
High above the valleys below and the beautiful rolling hills
Her ordained job was to oversee the habitants who roamed its sacred grounds
Each and every day these citizens would speak goodness to be settled upon the mountains.
One day a storm brewed on the horizon turning the beautiful, lush valley below dark
The overseer made revisions to make sure its residents was secured, dry, and gave everyone self-assurance.
And this too shall past
The overseer noticed a fragile and loathsome silhouette approaching, as she banged on the door, begging for shelter. A place to rest her soul in discord and turmoil of the raging seas roaring and the wind howling in the background.
The overseer opened the door portal small window to peek out and to keep the elements at bay, she glimpsed the appearance of the woman. She took in, as she assumed, the peasant’s appearance and slammed the door portal close refusing the woman's entrance.
The beautiful sun finally returned, flowers blooming, jasmine laden scent sailing throughout the air.
For the love of the overseer’s favorite morning enjoyment, she accidently burned her tongue, blisters instantly formed.
Yet, for the overseer’s faithfulness she noticed she needed supplies, water, and wood for the roaring fires to keep her inhabitants warm.
Therefore, she donned her black bonnet and long black coat, she left the securing entrance of her mountain gates to her most trusted and loyal associate and off she went.
A storm was fast approaching, as she made her way through the valley, up the hills, and over the mountains.
Heavy pelts of rain begin to pierce her skin, she tripped and fell over a stone, her attire became muddy.
Within her accident she had lost her shoes.
The overseer continued to make the long trekked up the mountains. She saw the receiving light beaming from the mountain peaks she called home.
She tried to let out a small sigh of relief it was impossible due to her tongue blistering, permitting her not to speak.
The overseer’s attire now hung like lead against her skin, her feet were now calloused and swollen.
As she approached the entrance gates to her mountains, she heard the wind howling in the distance, witnessing it sweeping everything within its incoming path.
The overseer banged on the door.
Her most trusted and loyal associate opened the small door portal. His inquisitive eyes took in the stranger’s appearance as he glanced up and down; he noticed the caked mud to her skin, barefoot, and squeaking as the stranger spoke.
The overseer’s most trusted and loyal associate instantly slammed the door portal in the assumingly stranger’s face.
As the story goes, everything was swept away by the howling wind in its dangerous path.
The moral of the story, always give mental sanctuary for those who appear less than capable to give it to themselves and judge not, let ye be not judged.
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”
Matthew 25:40

Mental Solitude In A Modern Society (Part III Of III)
Mirror Mirror On The Wall Is My Skin The Fairest Of Them All
Have you ever awakened and went through your daily morning ritual of, showering, brushing, then flossing your pearly whites? Preparing yourself to put your best face forward, only to see the reflection with a beautiful complexion, if not riddled with acne, blackheads, whiteheads, sebaceous cysts to the face, dermatitis, or some other types of facial fungal skin conditions, or skin diseases.
The skin is considered one of the biggest organs of the body, and how you pamper its presentation plays a major significant to how the world perceives you.
You only get one chance to make a first impression.
This brings me to the necessity of this medical journey, the season of summer is just around the corner, and us ladies, we want to have picture perfect skin from head to toe for those bikinis wearing beach days.
There are so many among society who suffer from some type of abnormality of the skin. And most people suffer in silence or refuse to seek profession help from a Dermatologist (A specialist medical doctor who manages diseases related to skin, hair, nails, and some cosmetic problems).
Let’s take the time to get acquainted with our skin. There are several components of the skin or to be politically correct, layers of the skin.
The Three Main Layers Of The Skin
Epidermis (outer layer), Dermis (middle layer), and the Hypodermis (deepest layer). To keep the suppleness of the skin firm and tight. H2O is always the key to keep your skin hydrated.
The three skin elements that came to mind that can be nuisance during the summer months, whereas some, not all people because hesitant in baring their skin. For various unknown reason or simply feeling embarrassed during a flare-up of a skin element or just being self-conscious in general.
The most common skin condition that I think of is Rosacea
Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes blushing, or you may notice people who suffer have a flushing and at times visible blood vessels to the face. Rosacea may also form small, pus-filled bumps. Given the nature of this skin condition, these symptoms may flare up for weeks to months and then go away for a while. Most people have known to mistake Rosacea for acne, unfortunately there is no known cure for Rosacea, however, to keep the skin looking just as fabulous.
I would recommend using Neutrogena skin care line. Their products work wondrous for any complexion. Just make sure you choose the best daily skin care regiment, rather you have a normal, dry, or an oily skin tone complexion.
I wanted to mention another disease, I rather say, to soften the stance, a skin disorder and that is Psoriasis. I know several elderly residents, who suffer from this dreaded condition. There are several FDA approved medications to control the cycle of outbreaks. Talk to your physician or dermatologist about what is best suited for you and make sure you discuss the contradictions and any adverse reactions, if you are taking other medications.
Psoriasis is in detail a skin disease which can causes red, itchy scaly patches, this skin disease most commonly found on the knees, elbows, trunk and scalp. Psoriasis is more common than you think, subsequently, it is considered long-term and chronic with no cure in sight for the millions who suffer from it. It tends to go through cycles, flare-up lasting for few weeks sometimes months, then subsiding for a while or going into remission.
There are steroid creams or ointments used to treat mild to moderate psoriasis in most areas of the body. In addition, light therapy, which is always a first-line treatment for moderate to severe psoriasis.
Now, we all have went through the phase of dealing with teenage acne. It becomes worse when it follows us into our adulthood.
Acne vulgaris is caused by a combination of unbalanced hormones, oil, and bacteria. During puberty, a hormone called androgen increases, and the sebaceous glands will produce more of the oily substance sebum. Naturally, sebum and dead skin cells come up through the hair follicles and out through the pores in the skin. Therefore, acne is very bothersome, when you can showcase on your face more zits than clear skin. I sympathize with anyone as an adult dealing with acne, primality for a woman. There are various medications on the marker to control acne, from antibiotic therapy, topical emollients that contain salicylic acid.
Salicylic Acid is used to treat, acne vulgaris, calluses and corns, dandruff, hyperkeratosis, and keratoderma.
A little note to briefly mention is what is called dermatitis is a general term that best describes a common skin irritation. And to be more specific it can be medically classified as atopic dermatitis or a better medical term (eczema).
Eczema is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. This condition is more common in children but can occur at any age. Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and it tends to flare periodically. Be advised it may be accompanied by someone who has asthma or suffer from hay fever. There seems to be no documented cure atopic dermatitis. But the great news is, the treatments and self-care measures can relieve the itching.
If you are a smoker, listen very carefully and with a keen sense of understanding.
The toxin in cigarette smoke damages the collagen and dulls the elastin of your skin, which Dermatologists refer to as the fibrous components of the beautiful skin you are born in, their role is to keep the skin firm, silken smooth, with a vibrant youthful appeal. Be advised without that collagen your skin is more prone to harden, and less elastic, it does tend to deepen winkles and heighten those crow’s feet around the eyes.
Another reminder if you are a chain smoker, your odds of developing Lung Cancer are very high, and that does not excuse the damage to your skin if you utilize Vapor cigarettes.
Natural Masks, Using What is In Your Home
Moisturize & Hydrate
¼ avocado
1 Tbsp raw honey
½ banana
2 Tbsp plain Greek yogurt
Mash the avocado and banana into a bowl and add the yogurt and honey. Stir well until the mask is fully mixed.
Use a face mask applicator brush and apply over your face. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes and remove with a warm washcloth and water.
Brighten & Tone
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp raw honey
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp turmeric
Please take the time to love yourself, embrace your presence, and have great thoughts as you encounter others in your path.
