Black
History Month
There is so much to celebrate in these 28 days so we have to try to make each day count. I love celebrating
Black Love so that is where most of my focus is this month. Also, since the heart is really the center of Love, I am also encouraging you to have a healthier heart.
Love is such a powerful emotion that it typically leaves us in emotional pain, but we continue to search for love throughout our lives, and our lives are truly not complete without LOVE. #Preach
I have been fortunate to have love as a constant in my life -- as both a recipient and a giver. My heart is happy because of that, and I truly understand what Rabbi Dr. Dessler said so eloquently,
“The people make a serious mistake in thinking you give to those whom you love, and the answer is, the real answer is you love those to whom you give.”
One of the greatest ways I experience love is through giving (especially to those who can never give me anything tangible in return). I encourage you to do the same (actively). It will change your life in ways that will keep you light and lovely, every step of the way. It will keep a permanent smile on your face even on the darkest of days.
I started my 28 Days of Black Love on
Facebook and will share one of those posts here. I hope you enjoy and I sincerely hope that you will support me when I publish my book. I would LOVE that!

Take 5:
And then she said, “Oh my God! She’s beautiful.”
And the he nodded and said, “Yep. She is, especially on the inside. She’s really the best.”
And then she asked, “What happened?”
And then he looked sad and said, “I’m not sure but she left a hole in my heart.”
And then she said stated with a very soft conviction, “I guess WE’RE never going to make it then.”
And then he said, “We’ve made it this far, but I don’t know how much further we can go.”
She wasn’t sad. She wasn’t upset. She knew because she always felt it. And then, she smiled (because she loves smiling).
She said, “I understand. Go get her.”
But, he hasn’t moved (yet) because he felt crippled by his love for her.
