Life is All About Perspective - Happy 2016!
Life is all about perspective! We can either have a positive attitude or live like sh* and allow others to dictate our own life! I choose to always (I should say more often than not) look at the bright side of things! I look up with the hopes to find answers to my many questions, to find solution to my anxieties and to tell God that I am thankful for the air I breath, for my Soul, and everything that makes me Human! I thank Him for showing me the way to Him even when I feel like I'm falling short. But with the love of the all mighty, with the support of my family and the loyalty of my dear friends I know that everything is possible.

New vs. Old
What's new?
It's been a while since I last posted something on my blog.
Today I decided to get back to the habit of writing and reading, for that matter.
Last time I wrote something, wasn't too long ago. I wrote a letter to a dear friend, while expressing my friendship to him.
One thing my parents taught me very well (I must say), is for me to be open and not be afraid to speak up or express my feelings. When I like something or someone I am not afraid to let it be known. Same thing goes for when I dislike something. I am very passionate about Human Rights and Justice for all; therefore, when I see a violation of any sort, I am not afraid to voice my opinion.
It's the new year and I am ready to embrace the changes it will provide and embark in this journey called Life, with open arms. I want to remind myself of my goals and dreams.
I can't forget of my past achievements, thanks to all the successes and failures, today I am standing where God wants me to be.
Let the challenges begin!

Tell the Truth
"It's easier to tell people what they want to hear than to speak your truth. But you'll feel so much better about yourself when you are honest. Today, have the courage to speak your truth. The harder it is, the better you'll feel afterwards."
by Yeshuda Berg, The Dailay Kabbalah Tune Up

I am a PROUD WOMAN
This day, March 8th, in 2009, I, along with two other amazing ladies, (each representing different parts of the world, Eastern Europe, the Caribbean and West Africa [me]), participated in Sophia Abele's Dialogues titled "Women's Rights is it Global".
We each focused our research and presentation in different aspect's of Women's Rights. The ladies, did, each, in "Woman during wars" & "Women & Sex Trafficking".

I did my research on Women's Education in Pakistan, and presented my work to a crowed of 100+, including the President of Westchester Community College, Dr. Joseph Hankin.
I am very proud to have participated in such event, and wish to participate in many more to come. I've met great women during my lifetime, including the ladies of both sides of my family, my mother and mentor, and all my lovely girlie girls.

I believe in all woman, and in our potentials to be great leaders of this world.
I believe in the education of all girls, and in their potentials to lead by example.
I believe in the education of all girls, and in their potentials to lead by example.
I believe in the greatness of all females, and in the respect we give and is given to us by each other and by all men.
I urge you, dear reader, to look into your life, see if there is any woman you love and appreciate? If so, please tell her she is isn't alone, you are there to support her through every thing she experiences in this world.
You could be a woman from the mountain ranges of Afghanistan,
or from an ethnic group in Zimbabwe,
or perhaps a Cuzco woman from Peru.
You could be a woman from the Pacific,
Or maybe the Atlantic oceans.
You could be from any nationality or region in the world,
but our characteristic of being a woman, will always
be the same.
