The Facts

Did you know that breast cancer is the most common cancer among African American women?

The incidence of breast cancer is 10 percent lower in African American women than in white women; however among young African American women (under 40) the incidence is higher.

A Christmas Perspective

It's Christmas Day and all is well, the children are up at 7 AM to open the gifts and SO AM I.  Usually I am too tired to get up and ask the children to go lay down for another hour.  With everything that's happened this month my perspective on life has changed for the better! Wow, Christmas through the eyes of a child is lovely, the children are so happy today to have their cousins visiting from Ethiopia nothing else matters.  I am so happy to have the family around and to be alive to share yet another holiday with them.  All of my gifts were pink of course, except for the fab coach bag my WONDERFUL brother gave me... I am filled with joy.  Thank you my loves! As the day came to an end I had a wonderful healing experience with my brother, that I must share.  We broke out the laptops and listened to some good ole' music. Teena Marie, OJays, LTD and of course Luther!!! Aaaah the pain is less and I feel less stressed.  Music heals try it.
So here I go with a my new Christmas perspective:

1. LIFE IS WORTH LIVING.
2. LOVE IS WORTH GIVING.
3. LAUGHTER IS WORTH SHARING ONE TO ANOTHER.

Try something new this year, be better than you were before I will pass this on that I heard in a sermon last night.

Change your STANDARDS.
Change your STRATEGY.
Change your STEPS. (Let them be ordered by God)
And your STORY will change.

Love y'all.
