I was just thinking how much effort we put into our jobs and business. In some ways we become leaders, supervisors, or commander over someone who has been placed under your authority. We teach them and train them as we want them to do the work in perfect form. We ourselves practice perfection when it comes to our job and training other,however, what about home? We are the commanders over our kids or our household, we teach them the 10 commandments and expect them to live by them, when we fall short of them ourselves. We give them them House rules, but we intend to let them slide on a few from time to time. We let them slide by say rude things to a sibling , friends, or family member and laugh about it until that one day they try it with us. The point I'm getting at is why should our household be ran any less than our jobs? How can you have such leadership skills on the job when you are a slacker at being a commander in your own house. If you don't have your children to follower the
rules early every single time, and make them pay for it when they don't,There will always become a time when they might come to a situation and say I can get away with it this one time... and that one time can cause someone a lifetime. As you read the Inspiration of the day think of your children, think of how you are training them to become the commander of their household one day, teach them how to run the "Family Business". Some times we as a parent makes mistakes with raising our kids, but lets not blame it on them being hard headed, look back at the small things you allowed to go on. Look back at the times when you told them not to do something and they ask why and you said because I said so. Take the time to explain the pros and cons. Allow your child to see you as human by sharing some of your experiences with them. We are raising the future people so lets step up our game!

Good Morning Divas Nov 25, 2008
We have so many reasons to be thankful. So why do we complain so much? Look back 60 years ago when life was lived so simple but mankind had to go through so much just to make sure we were treated equally. However today we get upset over our cell phones and our computers acting up at times. People were murdered just for our kid of every race to attend the same schools. Many parents meals were made from just flour, meal, water, and fresh vegetables. Now we sit in long line to by fast food, call out for delivery, or throw something in the microwave. Back then many wore hand made clothes and hand me downs. However, we get so upset when our designer suites get a small stain in them.
I hear so many of us complain about finances. How can we fix our mouth to complain about finances when we are still able to sit in front of the computer and log on to True Divas, when we have a roof over our head, food to eat, lights,phone and cable is still working. How can we complain about anything when we have homeless families sleeping on the streets, kids dying of drug overdose, you have infant being born with AIDS but yet we complain. Our issues are small compared to so many other peoples issues. Be thankful if you are just late on a light bill, at least you have a house to sit in the dark. Be thankful people please life is too short to be ungrateful. Just please think before you complain about anything. Just know God knows your every need and he will provide. I love you all.

I just want to take the time to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I know many of you may be going out of town or staying at home to prepare a meal for your family. Whatever you decide to do please bee safe. The Winter Holidays are the most top rated for house fires so please double check everything before you leave the house and unplug all your Holiday decorations. Make sure all heaters are working properly and all cords are properly intact. I love you all and I think of each one of you as a family member. I want to see each of you succeed and be confident within yourself. As I've said before I'm always here when you need me and I'm sure quite a few women can vouch for that. Take care and Happy Thanksgiving. When you get the time read the real story of Thanksgiving in the Brutally Honest group, I guarantee you will have more to be thankful for.
Your True Diva,
Angela Showers

I hope you all have a great Saturday! I found this poem and wanted to share it. SO Make room for your blessings!
CLEANING HOUSE FOR 2009
Last Week I threw out Worrying, it was getting old and in the way.
It kept me from being me; I couldn't do things God's way.
I threw out a book on MY PAST
(Didn't have time to read it anyway).
Replaced it with NEW GOALS, started reading it today.
I threw out hate and bad memories,
(Remember how I treasured them so)?
Got me a NEW PHILOSOPHY too, threw out the one from long ago.
Brought in some new books too, called I CAN, I WILL, AND I MUST.
Threw out I might, I think and I ought.
WOW, you should've seen the dust.
I ran across an OLD FRIEND, I hadn't talked to in a while.
His name is GOD the Father, and I really like His style.
He helped me to do some cleaning and added some things Himself.
Like PRAYER, HOPE, FAITH and LOVE,
Yes I placed them right on the shelf.
I picked up this special thing and placed it at the front door.
I FOUND IT- its called PEACE. Nothing gets me down anymore.
Yes, I've got my house looking nice.
Looks good around the place.
For things like Worry and Trouble there just isn't any space.
It's good to do a little house cleaning,
Get rid of the things on the shelf.
It sure makes things brighter; maybe you should TRY IT YOURSELF.
BE BLESSED AND BE A BLESSING TO SOMEONE ELSE!!!!

Happy Friday Divas!!! We have made it to the end of the week and what a wonderful week we've had.
I just want to ask one question... What have you done this week to improve yourself from last week? Every week you should do something to improve yourself as a person.,Build your character,and strengthen your personal development. We all see fault in other people that irritates us but we fail to realize that's something within ourselves that we need to alter. Self improvement is something we should take pride in doing and feel confident in doing so. Many of us fail to see that we have faults, or where we need improvement in ourselves. Ask your spouse, child, a close friend, parent, or sibling (someone who's going to be brutally honest with you) to Name one thing about you, as a person, that they feel you need to change. Collect their answers (don't get mad, don't ask them why, and don't jump into defense mode) and sit down and re-evaluate yourself and see how you could change those things. Its always better to get an outside opinion when it comes to yourself... just face it, you
wouldn't know if your breath stinks unless someone told you! LOL I love you all and have a great day!

"What do you want from God?" This morning I was asked the question this question...and I thought WOW that's deep lol. I sat back and look a back at all the things I've prayed for, asked for help in, and sometimes I even got bold to demand things. I then thought about my daughter, how she ask for things All the time, how she acts so needy( when she could do things herself only if she tried), and how she gets stubborn at times and want to do as she please! Again I was like WoW!!! I only have one child and God has Billions of little knuckle heads just like my daughter to deal with all day every day...That man has to have some patience!
Ask yourself what have you done for God lately? Stop being that spoiled brat and do something for your Father in Heaven! He don't ask for much...he also so said "What you have done for others, you have done for me." So get to work and stop waiting on God to please you all the time and begin to put forth the effort to pleasing him! I love you all.

I don't know who this is for this morning but, God told me to ask you..." Where is your Faith?" (I'm about to get brutally honest here so don't get mad with me, I'm just doing my assignment!) Why do we even pray when we don't have Faith? Many of us kneel down and pray about situations and get back up and worry about them all over again... Why? Do you not have faith is our God? That's like telling God, " God I want to tell you about my problems, however, I don't believe you can't fix them." Wake up! Have you forgotten ALL he has brought you through? Have you forgotten how he pulled you through situations that you couldn't see your way out of? Have you forgotten about the times the devil had you so wrapped up and bind down in sin and God said I forgive you anyway? How much proof does it takes for you to notice how Powerful Our God is? You need to sit down and re-evaluate yourself, your thought, and your relationship with God! Stop thinking how bad the issue is, and how long the trial
may last and start thinking about ways to improve yourself and your relationship with God!

Do you want to be successful? I'm sure you all have answered yes... who wouldn't want to be successful right. I have to be honest its three thing that will take you to success, your relationship with God, Faith, and Values! Those are the 3 keys to success. If you have those three things, you have nothing to loose! Stop focusing on money, cars, and clothes! Focus on your personal development. Make people see who you are, but not by what you have, what you have been through or where you come from. Introduce people to the real you, never alter yourself to fit in, stand strong for what you believe in and never fold out of fear of what people may think. People respect you more when they see and know who you are! When people see that success is soon to follow. It may not be given to you but you would have earned it! Keep faith and stay strong. I will post a blog this morning called Carrot, Egg, and Coffee... please check it out and tell me which one are you! I love you all!

Today is a day filled with opportunities! The question is what will you do when that opportunity knocks? Will you open the door to embrace it? Or will you back down in fear of not being able to handle it? What if the opportunity never knocks? Will you sit and continue to wait or will you build your own door? Decisions, decisions, decisions, be careful how you make them because all opportunities aren't good ones. Be wise and make clear decisions. When you kneel down to pray; pray for the right and perfect opportunity for you, and when the Lord sends it don't be afraid of the challenge for it may be bigger than what you asked for! I love you all and Enjoy your weekend.
