Happy Birthday to Me. ;-)
Happy Birrrrthday to Youuuu,
Happy Birrrrthday to Youuuu,
Happy Birrrrthday Dear Kimyon,
Happy Birrrrthday to Youuuu!
A few years back, not so long ago, heaven and earth erupted into a major celebration with the news of your impending adventure into this very time and space. You see, someone like Kimyon Zari doesn't come along all that often. In fact, there's never been a single one like you, nor is there ever ANY possibility that another will come again. You're an Angel among us. Someone, whose eyes see what no others will EVER see, whose ears hear what no others will EVER hear, and whose perspective and feelings will NEVER, ever be duplicated. Without YOU, the Universe, and ALL THAT IS, would be sadly less than it is.
Quite simply:
You're the kind of person, Kimyon,
Who's hard to forget,
A one-in-a-million
To the people you've met.
Your friends are as varied
As the places you go,
And they all want to tell you
In case you don't know:
That you make a big difference
In the lives that you touch,
By taking so little
And giving so much!
Kimyon, you are so AWESOME! For your birthday, friends and angels from every corner of the Universe, including buddies you didn't know you had, will be with you to wish you the HAPPIEST of days and an exciting new year in time and space. You won't be alone!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Kimyon!

From the Mouth of a Babe
Six-year-old Alyssa stole my heart the first day I met her. She has a slight speech impediment, which makes her sound like a New Yorker. Wise beyond her six years, Alyssa speaks with such authority one would think she has been here before.
On my first day at the Enrichment Center where I taught, little Alyssa complained that she did not understand #2 on her homework assignment. I asked her why was she having difficulty with this question. Alyssa looked up with her slanted little eyes and replied, "Because I haven't been raised yet; there's mur (NY accent) work to do." Hmm....speechless.
Alyssa's words spoke volumes. Although she is young, be mindful that our own dysfunctional way of thinking and being is also in need of raising up. We, too, must adjust our world-view by raising the bar. The values and beliefs of yesterday no longer serve us so we must change clothes for a better fit. After all, teenagers remind us that we cannot wear Nike sneakers with a FUBU outfit.
There is tremendous power in accepting the truth about ourselves. My latest read Leadership and Self Deception helped me to see this truth through a different set of eyes. Many organizations hire people that are unclear about their role of working with other PEOPLE much like themselves. We all have lives, families, businesses, and issues, which leads up to this point. If you focus only on what "you think you know" and how "you are living," how will you know what anyone else thinks, desires, or needs? Yes, what we think is important. Moreover, HOW we think about what we are thinking about is even more significant. We have to ask ourselves does what I think connect with or disconnect from others?
Author Neil Crofts said, "Reality is an intensely personal thing. All sorts of things--circumstance, mood, age, and gender, past experience, affect the way we interpret information. However, crucially, it is conditioned by belief." We may feel that each others beliefs do not make any sense. When the reality is, it just does not fit within our personal belief system. Here is an opportunity to communicate and learn about each other in a mature manner.
Be mindful that we are in this world together. No matter how "ADULT" we think we are, continuous development helps us raise the bar. It is affirmed Ms. Alyssa, there is a lot more work to do. Personal development is not a requirement, it is a choice. Thank you Ms. Alyssa for your wise leadership and council.

Being Wise or Foolish
Wisdom has built her house;
she has made its seven columns.
She has prepared her food and wine;
she has set her table.
She has sent out her servant girls,
and she calls out from the highest place
in the city.
She says to those who are uneducated,
"Come in here, you foolish people!
Come and eat my food and drink the wine
that I have prepared.
Stop your foolish ways, and you will live;
take the road of understanding."
Proverbs 9:1-6
"When you listen, you understand."
"Mission: To develop healthy hearts & warm spirits by passionately engaging in life to feel God’s breath.

L O V E
I welcomed love in freely,
without resistance,
without doubt or question.
I opened my heart and allowed the fresh breeze of love to blow in--
inside my arteries,
my veins,
my organs,
and up into my brain...
Ooooh, it felt sooooooo good.
I welcomed its scent, so sweet is its aroma.
I rubbed it into my black skin, it became melanoma.
It changed the color of what I said and how I behaved.
It began to break and bend, rip and tear me from limb to limb.
I fought back.
I even tried to stuff it away.
Yet, it returned more forceful than its entry,
cutting and twisting me around like a rag doll.
I cried.
I screamed.
I fainted.
And while I lay there spinning around in love,
it hit me;
you have no say here...
my body quivered and jerked.
Surrender.
Love won.
I felt peace-FULL.
Love said, Now get up,
go out
and
LOVE.

Interpretation of Females
A female isn't a woman. A female is only a way to determine the sex of a human, an animal a bird etc. In my minds eye a female is just a SEX. I have seen far to often our beautiful black women who have compromised their status as a woman to just being a female. So, when a female uses her sex to gain the attention of a man she has actually gained the interest of a male, and the male in a man can't get past what gained his interest in the beginning. If you use your female (SEX) then all he'll see you as is sex and that's what a female is.
The man has never been given the opportunity to see the woman in that female. So, the end result is some females wonder why they continue having relationships that are not working at this stage in the game, and the answer is there inside of them, you can't have the cart before the horse.

Arms that will....
Find arms that will hold you @ your weakest…
eyes that will see you at your ugliest…
and a heart that will love you at your worst.
Then, you have found true love.
What do you think?

Do You Love what You Feel?
"Lifelong learning begins with a heart that desires change, wisdom, and application." Bill Mowry
1. What are you passionate about?
2. Is your passion infectious?
3. What ways have you shared your passion with others?
4. What paths have you paved that others want to follow?
5. How are you planning to use your passion to heal the pain in the world?
These questions now snapping, crackling, and popping in your mind are good questions. I believe a lack of passion has a lot to do with how we treat ourselves. However, pursuing an issue that you know you could make better tends to heal brokenness. Here are five reasons and/or excuses we use to delay identifying our passion:
*Wait till I get my money right
*Wait till the children grow up
*Wait till I lose 20 pounds
*Wait till I turn colors
*Wait... duck, duck, (waiting) GOOSE.
We see the pain in each other’s faces. We see it in their body language. WE see it when we pull up the stoplight and glance at the person in the car next to us. We see it in the man and woman smoking one cigarette after another. We see it in the woman who freely gives herself away. We see it in the man cajoling any woman just for game. Oh yes, we see it. And for some of us, WE ARE "IT". Since we are aware of the roadblocks that cause us pain, why do we feast on these smelly bones, these useless tactics that undermine our intelligence? Quick fixes: THEY DON'T WORK!
As we grow in our awareness of how we care for ourselves, we are setting the tone for how others treat us. Be open to embrace your passion so others will see it, feel it, and follow your lead. Regardless of your circumstances, get started. We are waiting to feel the healing passion that you love and feel.
Do you love what you feel? If not, I invite you to the one that loves what you feel: John 3:16, Psalm 8, 92, and especially 139. I pray: God help us to see ourselves before we destroy ourselves. Ashe'

Lyrical Licker
I was sitting around working on my computer one day and received the most beautiful and poetic piece of art I've seen in quite some time. I loved it then, and I love it now. Check it out.
If you, If me
Couldn't feel we
My soul would be lost
Your touch
Your lips
Taste my hips
The way your words dance
Licking my butter love endless
Allowing my heaven to be blessed
By the verses your tongue rehearse
Mentally, I escape
In depths of pleasure
Singing the sweetest melody
Sucking me right there
French kissing my intimacy
Grabbing your head
Whispering take me places Papi
Leave more than just a memory
Engrave your love for poetry
The scent of pleasing
Draws your tongue pen deeper
My hips vibrating with your rhythm
The more you lyrical lick me
I shake and shiver
Mind binded with letting go
The imprints of your flow
Writing cursive phrases
Sending me on an intoxicating high
I can't catch my breath
You come up for air
Anticipating the silence in my sighs
Again you dove in tongue first
I crave you, you love tasting me
Butter love trembling, throbbing
Almost at the point of no return
Intensity rising
You open my shores wider
'Inscripting' metaphorical interludes
Dayum near losing my sanity
You sucked me in like quicksand
Exploding spurts of combustions
Released a river of ecstasy
Satisfaction rested on my shores
You sipped until there was no more
Your lips drenched in honey dew
Bodies glowing as candles flicker
Our lips meet with a sensual kiss
Smelling my scent on you
I softly whisper
Thank you Lyrical Licker

Love Gives More
Just when you think Love wouldn't give more, it does.
Love is something I hear about, talk about, share w/others, and believe I have touched a time or two. Recently, I spoke to 30 single black beautiful women that do not have love in their lives. These wonderful women tell the same old story... they were told that they are the problem. They were either too much of something, or not enough of something else.
However, Joe from twitter says that's not true. He dated many beautiful women before sitting at home "alone" realizing that he, too, didn't have real love in his life. Joe came across a light bulb moment and what he discovered surprised him. He realized that he didn't have the proper personal development tools to deal w/the women he dated. He thought he was ready, but recognized that he was not equipped to give these women the kind of love and life that they deserved. Therefore, he always created a reason to act out, cop an attitude, or bail leaving the ball of blame in his partner’s court.
The Diamond Result: Joe is now a coach, helping young men step up to the plate to take responsibility for themselves. His mission: help young gentlemen build up their confidence and understand their role in the relationship so that it's healthy and flourishing. I enjoyed listening to Joe's interview & wish him the best w/his coaching practice. See, Real Love always gives more because Love really does love us. And Love uses us to give back even more love. Remember, love gives more. ;-)
