A Minute with Mo

Hello world, its me again. :) Did ya miss me...?  Life has been good, life has been busy...thats about it for me.  I've missed writing and so I'm here to get my fix. Lately I've been noticing a growing and pretty disturbing trend.  I'm all for social networks and what they represent when they are used the RIGHT WAY.  What I don't like about social networks is the ability it gives people to hide behind the guise of a profile picture or a username and enable them to believe they can 'create' the person they want to be.  More often than not I've seen the players portray themselves as the most faithful partners, the heathens (as my grandma would call them) are the most saved and spiritual you've and the perpetrator is always the victim, the person living paycheck to paycheck is balling out of control and sadly the deadbeats are parents of the year (men and women) and the list goes on...seriously...and no im not making this stuff up. I'm sure you&#

Whew, its been forever (AGAIN...) I feel like I really do say that on each post, lol... this time being back on it is referring to my commitment to healthIER eating and a more active lifestyle.  I really started hitting it hard back in July and it wasn't easy because I have always started and just as quickly stopped working out and eating right. But I hung in there for a little longer this time and in just a couple of months: VOILA! I was 20 lbs lighter.  (Talk about excited, lol!) No sooner than I lost the weight did I get comfortable with my new 'look'.  I know you're thinking but it was only 20 lbs, well apparently that made a huge difference, lol... I got comfortable and complacent and stopped trying as hard. I had told myself "See, you could do it and now you've done it." and that was almost enough. Enough for me to slow down, stop even and say well if I need to lose it now I know how and know what I need to do. BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT I'm g

Here we go with the latest edition of "Truths" I've compiled that I want to share with you- just a little food for though... TRUTH:  Sometimes, it is better to not get what you want, so it won't distract your vision from what you need. TRUTH:  We must understand that whatever we give the power to make us happy, we have also given the power to make us sad.  Make it worth it… TRUTH: Sometimes, it's harder to forgive than to love; but true love, will never find it hard to do both. TRUTH:  A person playing a role, will soon forget their act.  Pay attention. TRUTH:   To have high self-esteem, you also need to love your bad qualities - it's fake to love only the good ones. Only by totally loving yourself, can you hope to love anyone else and their bad qualities. TRUTH:  Everybody lives, but not everybody learns. Make sure you are growing thru life, and not just going thru life. TRUTH:  Nothing can drag you down, unless you are holding on to it. TRUTH:  The

So, I get the 97.9 the beat newsletter and they had this topic about Texting Rules and some of the offenses and no-no's, just thought i would share these for a good laugh.  This is hilarious because I’ve done most of these things…smh Avoid One Word Answers – If someone texts you a sentence, it is not polite to respond with “K” or “LOL”, its kinda rude, and in fact, it’s stand-offish.  At the very appear that you are least interested in the conversation you’re having and instead of saying “K” say something more like “OK, I’ll do that now”. See what a difference a few extra letters make? Response Time Is Everything – If you’re carrying on a text conversation it is very rude to leave a person hanging by taking hours to respond or not responding at all. If you are busy, feel free to let the person on the receiving end of your conversation know that response time will be slow or to give you a minute. If you can say it all in 1 message, please do – Although we don’t want y
