Phenomenal Woman-Maya Angelou




Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
The palm of my hand,
The need for my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

THERE IS MORE THAN ONE ROAD LEADING TO YOUR GOLD


LIFE, LIFE, LIFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! SUCCESS SUCCESS SUCCESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!! We all are living this life, and we ALL are on a jounrey to success. The funny thing is that we all tend to believe that their is only one way to success. I have seen many people try to mimick other steps, thinking it will lead them to that pot of Gold (Success), which is farrrrrrr from the truth.

God has made everyone an individual. There is NO else in this world that is an exact duplicate of you. Everyone also has THEIR OWN PURPOSE! Your purpose in this world differs from the person next to you. With this being said you CANNOT lean on another person process and expect it to work with you.

Being an orginal with a God-given purpose means that the process leading you to your destination will be unique. There were times when I would get so frusterated because I felt that my road had so many obstacles, whereas someone else seemed to slide through. I had to learn that my road was given for me for a reason.


So instead of resenting it.. I had to embrace it! And ever since then Life has become less stressful! So to you I SAY..EMBRACE YOUR ROAD..AND REALIZE THAT EVENTUALLY IT WILL LEAD TO YOUR GOLD :-)

ABOVE ALL BE THANKFUL


In this crazy world, it is easy to whine and complain about EVERYTHING! I do not know about you, but I have complained about many things. There have been times where I have minimized the blessings God has blessed me with and maximized my problems .

During one of my random times to myself I took a step back and looked at my actions, and realized that I had come to a place where I complained more than I thanked. Complaining had become second nature. Realizing that shocked and saddened me. Was it true? Did I really end up in a place where I was ungrateful? All of these questions flooded my mind, as i really digested the revelation.

In Romans 1:21 it states "For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened." This verse made me realize the consequences of complaining, and not thanking God for all that we don't deserve.

In this verse, God reminded me of the fact that his blessings should not be taken forgranted. You see there are many people in the world that want a roof over their heads and food on the table who do not have it. Yet we look at these everyday blessing as a right that should be given to us. That is not true. God can give and take it away..

In this life, learning to thankful above all will get make us appreciate things more. I mean there is sooooo much to be thankful for. Your alive, you can use your body parts AND SOOO MUCH MORE. Never take blessings or people forgranted. Things can be so much worst than what it is. SO ABOVE ALL LETS BE THANKFUL AND APPRECIATIVE FOR ALL THAT WE HAVE..IT WAS ONLY BY THE GRACE OF GOD!!!

WITH LOVE,

EVE

LEARNING,LOVING AND GROWING

I'M BACK WORLD!! AND IT FEELS SOO GOOD. During my hiatus I have learned more about myself. I have learned more about my strengths, and weaknesses. I have come out of some circumstances that have allowed me to re-evaluate some decisions. This year alone I have learned to lean not on myself, but to lean on the direction of God, I have learned to LOVE unconditionally, and to Grow from my trials and tribulations. As I continue this journey I pray that you all understand that Change only occurs to those who diligently seek it.. Hello AGAIN WORLD!
