A Minute with Mo

Hey people! Soooooo I said I was going to try to blog at least once a week and I already messed that up, didn't even keep it up for 3 weeks....SMH... I've been writing but haven't published anything cause I wasn't sure I wanted to 'share' what I was feeling with the world. I'll catch you up, but I guess I'll start here.... I used to be terrified of riding roller coasters. And although in a natural sense I looooove them now, metaphorically speaking they suck, at least the emotional ones......I've heard people say all the time about how they are on an emotional roller coaster, shoot, even Vivian Green wrote a song about it, but it hasn't been until now that I can fully understand exactly what they were saying....

Just wanted to post this video and remind you to SMILE... no matter what.  I LOOOOOOOVE this song and I LOOOOOOOVE to smile... just ask anybody that knows me, lol. Smiles truly are infectious so if you wanna give people something that doesn't cost anything, but is so precious and valuable...give them your smile, they might even smile back! Some of my favorite parts of the lyrics are posted below! ~Enjoy... Mo. Kirk Franklin- I Smile Lyrics Today’s a new day, but there is no sunshine. Nothing but clouds, and it’s dark in my heart and it feels like a cold night. Today’s a new day, but where are my blue skies. Where is the love and the joy that you promised me tell me it’s alright. (I’ll be honest with you) I almost gave up, but a power that I can’t explain,
