A Happy Old Year’s Day to you and your family. Enjoy the festivities and be safe. I wonder how the people who are out in the cold, at Time Square waiting until midnight does it? You cannot have a bag, a chair to sit on etc. There is a list of what you can and can’t do. I heard if you move from where you are standing you cannot return so I wonder about bathroom time. What do the revelers do? I never had the desire to be in that crowd. I wish them all a safe and joyous time.

A wonderful safe day to you and your family. I pray that today is a better day for you. Yesterday I saw a movie called Bushwick. It was realistic and it left me wondering if. Global unrest is happening and the media only reports on a few countries. These are some of the countries where mass protests are taking place. Algeria, Albania, Azadi, Azerbaijan, Bolivia, Chile, China, Colombia, Ecuador, Egypt, France, Gaza, Georgia, Haiti, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Lebanon, Montenegro, Moscow, Nicaragua, Papua, Philippines, Spain, Sudan, and the list goes on. This world is chaotic because of the dollar devils.

Yesterday was Christmas Day and it felt like an ordinary day. I did not feel that extra joy I usually feel at Christmas. Opening gifts, having meals, talking and laughing for a moment, but then suddenly something was amiss. It must be the conversation about the childish men running this world. Thoughts of them killed the spirit of Christmas. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.

When you are pregnant people get overly friendly with you. They want to chat with you; asking lots of questions about your pregnancy and your life. They love to touch your belly and offer to help you. It is annoying. When I was pregnant, I was very unapproachable because I did not trust anybody I did not know. I used to blame my bad attitude on my hormones. If you are pregnant be aware of the people who suddenly want to be your friend. Many women are being killed and their baby gets stolen.

I don’t shop at Amazon because more than 10 years ago I bought something and it looked used. I returned it and I did get back my money, but it took a lot of arguing and complaining. This morning I saw on the news that some sellers on Amazon are selling garbage. I am not surprise. Have a nice day. Enjoy and be safe.

Innocent until proven guilty. A 13-year-old boy is charged with the murder of Barnard College student, Tessa Rane Majors. Although he was not the person who stabbed her, they charged him with murder. I do not know the law but right or wrong this is a heartbreaking situation. I pray that truth prevails. I know God and I know that he is in charge.

Dear God, the devil is at hand. The phones in my home and the other electronics are going nuts. An Amber Alert has been issued for Karol Sanchez who was kidnapped by two men last night. Karol Sanchez was walking with her mother in the Melrose section of the Bronx. Two men knocked her mother to the ground then grabbing her and put her in a car with two other men. This is so scary. Sarah just called me because she said all phones and electronic devices in her class went off with the alert, but she thought it was about the weather. She is doing finals so this morning when she was heading out all I told her was to pay attention to her surroundings. I pray that they find this child safe and sound.

Today I look at life and I am flabbergasted. There are some people who do outrageous things and they get away with it. But I know God and he is in charge. The old Trinbago folks used to say, “The vengeance of moko go fall on dem.” I don’t know who moko is, but I know God and he said, “Vengeance is Mine, and recompense; Their foot shall slip in due time; For the day of their calamity is at hand, And the things to come hasten upon them.” Deuteronomy 32:35.

Happy Sunday to you and your family. Enjoy your day and be safe. I have to repost my opinion about what can happen to you when you litter. Picture this. One day you are walking in an area to get to another place. You are drinking a bottle of water, soda, or might be eating something. Whatever you were drinking and or eating you throw the bottle and the wrapper on the street. Someone gets killed in the area you litter. Now you are a person of interest. “Stop littering!”

On Wednesday evening eighteen-year-old Tessa Rane Majors, a student at Barnard College was stabbed to death. She was walking through Morningside Park at 116th Street and Morningside Drive when she was attacked. A couple of people are being questioned. This is a sad situation and I hope they find the right person/s who did it. It is troubling because the people who are being questioned are minors and this brings to mind the Central Park jogger situation. Dear God I pray that truth prevails.

“A Little MERCY This CHRISTMAS” We win by tenderness. We conquer by forgiveness. — Frederick William Robertson (1816 -1853) “Yes, you are upset that your child/children did something you deem unforgivable, so you decide not to give them anything. Remember that you still have a precious one in your presence many parents don’t. “On Christmas morning please give your child/Children the gift/s you have for them and make it a Merry Christmas.

Happy Sunday to you and your family. Enjoy your day and be safe. My prayer for the innocent. Ps. 64. Hear me, my God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy. Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers. They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows. They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly, without fear. They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, “Who will see it?” They plot injustice and say, “We have devised a perfect plan!” Surely the human mind and heart are cunning. But God will shoot them with his arrows; they will suddenly be struck down. He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn. All people will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done. The righteous will rejoice in the LORD and take refuge in him; all the upright in heart will glory in him! Amen.

I saw the most heart-breaking video on the news about a 16-year-old child who is in custody at the United States Border. This young boy had a fever of 103 degrees but did not see a doctor. The Boarder officials put him in a sell with a concrete bed and a foil blanket. He stood up to walk but fell to the floor. Moments later he got up and walked to the bathroom where he fell again but this time he did not get up. Another boy who is also ill got up from under his foil blanket and walked over to the bathroom where he found his comrade. My tears flow as I write this. I have children. I love children. Rest in peace precious soul. Ps. 63:11. But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped. Amen.

This world is filled with wicked people and they all get away with their wickedness. There is no justice and peace for the kind-hearted. He killed Trayvon Martin and was acquitted of murder so you think he would shut his mouth and go away, but George Zimmerman is not doing that. He is suing Trayvon Martin’s parents for 100 million dollars. Imagine a man murdered your child and then he wants to be paid for it. He is like a thorn in the Martin’s hip.

When I give something or do something for someone, I don’t do it for payment unless we are doing business. I do not like reproachful people. You only have to reproach me once and that is the end of me asking you for anything or accepting anything from you. I do forgive reproachful people but I do not forget their reproachful ways. A wonderful safe Monday to you and your family.

Stop worrying about the people who don’t like you. Remember you are not going to like everybody you meet and everybody who meets you is not going to like you. Life is short so be grateful that you are seeing another day. Thanks be to God. “Your sacred space is where you can find yourself over and over again.” Joseph Campbell (1904-1987)
