Update on Life

Well its been a while since I've posted. Things are going really swell for me. My grades are getting better and this weather is beautiful!!! I was supposed to attend and participate in this Spoken Word thing last night but my friend Marlon forgot to remind me. ((SOOOOO much stuff has been going on lately)) Also, I'm so ready for Spring Break 2011 to get here!!!! I'm not going anywhere but just knowing that I don't have to go to school is a wonderful thing in itself. Not that I dislike going to school, but everyone needs a break now and then.

I have also been reading this novel entitled Jane Eyre..... LONGEST EVER!!!!! :|
It is a good read but just takes so dang long to finish.... we sit in lecture and most people are really behind. My professors seem to think that the only class I have is theirs. Or maybe they just don't care. Anywho, I am so exicited to go to church this Sunday!!! I need to go. I missed last Sunday and it feels like forever since I've gone.

But other than that, Life is Good. Sincerely, S.Dot :)

Mt. Olive service was WONDERFUL today!!!

I felt truly moved today by church service. Now, no matter what your denomination is, I hope that you understand and are faithful to it. In my case, GOD, my Creator, has shown me so much mercy in my 20 years of living. It feels good to know that I was created in his image and that He gave His son for MY sins. Selfless indeed.

Scripture from todays sermon: Ephesians 4:17-24

It was saying that as believers we should strive to be different. Different in the sense that we recognize and DO the right thing (Shouts out to Spike Lee). The people in the world who don't do better are the ones who don't KNOW better and who have not yet opened themselves up unto the Lord.

Don't get me wrong... we all make mistakes. I am no where near perfect and I do slip up; but there is an understanding of repentance for my sins.

Also, there is not ONE person on earth who can judge you. They did not make you to know how you are supposed to be anyway. GOD did. He made you the way you are supposed to be (goes back to the "difference" among people".

Today was also "Tuskegee University Student's Day" at Mt. Olive

I hope reading this is an inspiration to someone. :)

Is this meant for Women or Black People.?

We have been thrown down so low that nobody thought we'd ever get up again; but we have been long enough trodden now; we will come up again, and now I am here.

This is a very powerful quote.

I first see women. If only women knew the power they possessed. Instead of being so mad at another woman's success, support her. So one day she can support you in sisterhood. It's crazy how women as a whole can complain of being behind, being disrespected, and being under appreciated when they tend to do all of the above to themselves. I am striving to uplift the female population. And its funny that I say that. I have made HORRIBLE choices as a female. But to learn from them is the most important thing. I'm not trying to be super save-a-hoe but all this bullshit from women isn't called for. So stop complaining and FIX IT!!!

Secondly, I see black people. We (well not really "we" because I haven't had to go through anything so lets say OUR RACE) has been through alot.

I'm having writers block LOL. Just saw a tweet where somebody said that they would vote for somebody into office for our schools SGA because they would look good in office. Is that all that matters to yall? Looks? Well what is he going to do as President? Party all the time? Is that the kind of legacy yall trying to leave for Tuskegee? Because I will be the first to say fuck yall. (honestly)

Ok, back to black people. It is a struggle to get ahead. Not much of a struggle. And it's not because of the "man". It's because the African-American race tends to bring itself down and because we tend to think that there is a wall up. Baby there is only the wall you build for yourself. If you think you can't you CAN'T. If you think you have haters... (well I never think I have haters. I am normal just like everybody else. There is nothing to hate on. If you would like to be my friend then just introduce yourself. There should not be one person who envy's me.... welp. i lied. I'm a woman. I appreciate the body i have, the mind i have, and the way i express myself)

Just my thoughts. If you like reading feel free to subscribe. :)
