Good Morning! Glad to among the land of the living this morning. I give all glory, honor and praise to God today! I pray to be a vessel for Him to use to help other people and to make this world a better place. I really have to be more diligent about posting on my blog. Being that I will start my Masters Program in Human Services in a few weeks, which I am super excited about, I will need to start writing more. So, with that being said, I hope to get on here everyday to offer my observations about life in general and anything else that is going on in the world. I will offer my opinions on various subjects. And they are just that, my opinions. We are all entitled to them. Do know this, they will not include and sexist or racist rants. I love all people no matter what race, creed, color, religion or sexual orientation they happen to be. I wasn't raised that way and I have not raised my children that way. I will, however, delete any comments and posts that lean that way. I will not tolerate it! Go elsewhere with that. Just remember, that very same group of people you hate because of the color of their skin, their religion, sexual orientation, etc., may be the same person that may have to save your life one day or that you will need help from. Keep that in mind! I just never understood how you can hate someone you never met or has never done anything to you. That makes absolutely no sense to me. Today, I'd like to thank all the veterans who proudly served our country to allow us to keep the freedoms we all enjoy, and yes, one of those freedoms is freedom of speech. It's in the constitution. They have sacrificed for us. Some paid the ultimate sacrifice and for that, I salute you! The second shout-out I want to give today, is to my Sorors of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Incorporated! Today, we celebrate 90 years of, "Greater Service, Greater Progress". For those of you who don't know we are the youngest of the four Divine Nine Sororities. That means, we are the babies of the historically black Sororities. We have members from all races, religions and backgrounds. Founded on the campus of Butler University on November 12, 1922 by seven educators: Mary Lou Allison Gardner Little, Nannie Mae Gahn Johnson, Dorothy Hanley Whiteside, Vivian Irene White Marbury, Cubena McClure, Hattie Mae Annette Dulin Redford and Bessie Downey Martin, they were trailblazers. The reason I say this is due to the fact that across the street from the school were the headquarters of the Klu Klux Klan. Membership in the Klan was at it's highest during this period. They chose to start an organization for black women in the midst of all of this. It is an organization committed to community service and to help better the world in which we live. That is just a synopsis! For more information, please visit www.sgrho1922.org. I'd also like to give a shout-out to the newest members of the Kappa chapter of Iota Phi Lambda Sorority, Inc. Congratulations to Sorors, Serita Durant, Yvette Belt and Sherry Jones! Welcome to Iotaland! I hope your ready to WORK! Iota Phi Lambda is a business and professional sorority that was founded on June 1, 1929 by Lola Mercedes Parker, Ethel T. Edwards, Mildred G. Hardin, Harriet M. Robinson, Ophelia Harrison, Burdette Trigg and Marjorie Tydall. For more information, please visit www.iota1929.org. That's it, for now. I may post my thoughts on the recent presidential election. Until then, Be Blessed
