Hello...Thanks for reading...I'm so tired tonight it's unbelievable but I must share a couple of things. Well last night I just got back from DC where I attended this conference on professional development and all that great stuff. I have met some amazing people this summer, I mean wow, this is definitely a great break. Sometimes little things get in the way of that greatness but overall mannnn breakthroughs and all kind of blessings have been puring in. But another thing I don't want to neglect is that there have been trials. I met a man named Al who is an entrepreneur who has this organization called the Dru/Drew Foundation for inner city youth and his passion, his insight, & his knowledge just blew me away. Also the woman who put on the conference is just spectacular and that is an understatement. After the session I spoke with her and I told her that she is truly blessed to be doing what she loves...and when someone is doing what they love you can feel it. I mean like Al they have this look in their eyes, this look of a passion and fulfillment so deep that joy just glows from their iris' as if tears could swell up at any given moment and dive down their cheek bones. It's beautiful and that is living to me.
On another note today is my best friends bday..>SO HAPPY BDAY AM!!< Also about the romantic interest situation, I'm not sure about it anymore...We met through a friend, talked a couple times, went to dinner with a group of people, and it was great. I mean it's really great to have someone that sees you for all of you including your mind. I mean everything seemed perfect but of course things can't all be perfect. He's leaving for the army at the same time that I have to leave to go back to college. So I mean, we'll keep in touch and see what happens, but I don't want to get involved and dig a hole I can't get out of with my heart. Plus I mean after all these years it's still hard trusting...Who knows if love is even for me, love is about trust and my heart is damaged...(I'm mad I quoted Danity Kane but whatever it's true). SO anywho I am going to keep focused and work on improving me...Another big thing that the conference highlighted was about giving more and being unselfish....SO today ask yourself what is it that you can do for someone you know or don't know, and it doesn't matter how old or young...What people can do for you shouldn't be the main goal, blessings will come.
Last thing I must mention because of something I recently went through is that everyone should all try hard to judge less and less each and every day. It's not fair, and it's not right. All those who have been judged know what I mean, sometimes people just have a way of trying to weaken you, but let no man knock you out of the path of light that shines from Him above whether it be mentally, spiritually, or physically trying to tear you down. Be you, Be Beautiful, Be Blessed.

A Closed Mouth...
Sometimes I allow myself to become defeated. I find that there are times when I take no for an answer while longing deep down inside for more to become of situations. The other day I had lunch with an employee from the Sprout network and I was hit with a large realization. I mean already this summer it feels like each and every day I have been learning new lessons, and I mean getting hit hard with knowledge and wisdom from those around me. It's crazy how in your life while you are on your own path you go through so much stuff individually, things that no one else will ever take note of but you. And through the lessons, trials, and blessings that God has really been bestowing upon me I know that it is time for me to go for my dreams. No is not the answer and I wont stop.
Today I was singing this little tune in my head, then the humming became a song which is how it usually happens, for me anyways, and my song was about freedom. One thing I read in the bible the other day...and it had been a while since I took a minute to do so...was that God wants you to want him all by yourself. When you realize that God's love for you is not contingent upon anyone's presence and the magnitude of that love has the power to release you from every burden and every pain, yes you begin to feel free.
Alright, alright I am going to far with my speech, but I really have been getting so much from life in these last couple of weeks. Since I know that a closed mouth doesn't get fed I must speak and make things happen.
Sometimes I feel like I can't contain what I have to give to the world, but we as people all needing our voices to be heard should never have to contain what we have to give. "Blessings are meant to be Shared" -Vernice Armour. I believe that firmly and I know now what I am capable of because I am free.

On my way!
Today is July 5th, the birth of my newborn blog, while she is very new she will soon begin to reflect her mother's thoughts and opinions. I wasn't to fond of the whole blogging idea until recently. I mean I love to talk and share my thoughts, so what could be better. While I don't intend to change the world in 1 blog, I intend to try to make a difference in the best way possible. I'm a blog virgin so as I take on this new journey I hope to learn much about the world of blogging and I desire like all writers do for my voice to be heard.
Love, Diana G.
