Queen Mothers

-

Happy Mother's Day, Moms. It's all about YOU right through here (smile.) You are the Queen who carries and brings forth Life. Today and everyday, you are a Jewel, a nurturer. A nourisher. A soothing balm in time of Crisis. Your hand rocks the cradle that rocks the World. You provide sustenance; comfort and you are the Source of affection where there is pain. You breathe for that child while you carry them inside and you are solely responsible for what they receive. They eat and drink what you eat and drink. When you are happy, they feel it. When you are sad, they feel it.

The Gift of Motherhood, whether planned or unplanned, is simply amazing. The knowledge that there is a whole person growing inside of you is mind-blowing. The lessons, the regrets, the evolution, and constant revolution. Yes, we have had some low valleys and times of despair, but in many of those times, we have found our children to be the wind which moves us forward. From the moment of conception, until the World is no more, the bond with our children sustains us. Through sickness and barren places, the love of and for my children whisper strength to my soul. 

To my Sisters who have not birthed children from your womb, but you have birthed children of your heart, I salute you as well. Your "Mothering Heart" has held many crying children. Building them up in ways that no one else has. You have wiped tears and been a listening ear for many who were afraid to speak. Thank YOU!

We are the Voice of our children, when they cannot speak. We advocate for them. We shed tears for them and we laugh with them. We provide strength and power for generations to come.


Children show Honor to the Creator when they Honor their Mother.

*MOTHERS, THAT'S WHO WE ARE!*

Carrying the Promise

"And the Angel came to her and said, "Rejoice favored woman! The Lord is with you.....Then the Angel told her: Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Now listen, you will conceive and give birth to a Son, and you will call His name Jesus."  St. Luke 1:28-31 (HCSB) On this Christmas day, that Christians refer to as the day that Christ was born, I reflect on a previous conversation that I had with my oldest Son, Byron. We were conversing about various aspects of my Organization, "A Mother's Cry" and some of the challenges of bringing for my goals and visions to support Mothers. In addition, I shared some of the challenges of Motherhood and the weight of responsibility of shaping, molding and nurturing your child. I explained to him that being a Mother, includes experiencing strengths and weaknesses that you did not even realize you possessed. Also, there are fears and uncertainties that arise as you accept this responsibility. In response ...

Honoring Our Elders

-
For many of our older Black and Brown people, one of the most challenging things to deal with, regarding today's exposure of Racism, Bigotry, Police Brutality and Government Corruption is that today looks just like yesteryear. The Systemic Racism is still the Foundation of the establishment that they call America. Regardless, we must continue to stand against these things and expose them whenever and wherever they are. We will not give up our fight for Justice and Equality. Period. We honor or Elders by continuing to fight. We honor them by letting them know that we value the prices that they have paid for us. We honor them by recognizing and acknowledging that THEY are the shoulders upon which we stand. We honor THEM.

August ~ Novel Emergence with Divine Purpose

  Ever since I can remember, when the Month of August arrives, discussions begin about the #8 and inevitably shouts of "New Horizons" are heard. These conversations are filled with hope, plans for unity and peace and personal balance. The atmosphere becomes sprinkled with Creative Risings and innovative initiatives. Preparing for this Month, I thought of a familiar adage that contains the statement, "As a Phoenix, rising from the ashes" which is often used when talking about next level life experiences. Meditating on this concept, my mind saw a picture of a Crescent moon. Upon further study, I learned that Crescent moons represent Motherhood and Fertility (you know that caught my attention) and that it is also said to be symbolic of development, creative power and manifestation.  The end of the moon's cycle (the waning phase) is leading into a NEW moon. It is the feminine symbol that universally represents the rhythm of time as it embodies the cycle. As we give ...
