Pumped and Ready To Go!!!

Hello Friends and Family

I am so pumped and excited about what is finally getting ready to go down.  CureQuest is about to start its first campaign.  Its Launch will be in the upcoming posts for all you guys to attend.  What campaign you ask?  Well, we have been trying to get all the data and video needed to get this thing going.  We have set out to educate and inform our local and regional communities about the blood cancer disease called Leukemia.  It is so often that cancer campaigns and adds are letting you know of the many types but hardly about the specific disease Leukemia. We have a national foundation called LLS (Leukemia and Lymphoma Society) and a statewide foundation called Leukemia Texas but no regional foundation.  That is where we come in.  This campaign will generate funds to get the foundation CureQuest up and running or off the ground as some would say.  So please give to the cause and help get the word out about this disease.  We want to do some major stuff that will help with awareness and assist those who are already diagnosed and living with the disease. 

 If you have any questions, concerns or comments, please hit me up on facebook at the address:

BIG NEWS!!!

Hello Friends and Family,

I am starting something that will change the fight in the blood cancer war.  First, it all starts with awareness.  You know I am a survivor of Leukemia and I noticed that not a lot of people even know about the disease.  I talked to people all the time and they dont know about it or even if they are at risk of it.  So I made up in my mind that I would educate the world even more about the disease and the affects of what it could cause but better yet how you can overcome it.  You overcome by first knowing the symptoms.  So I want to start a video and social media campaign to help people all over the world that might not know or think that it couldnt happen to them.  Believe or Not Leukemia looks just like you.  Help me in these efforts by supporting the video and social media campaign by giving to the fund.  Here is the link and I look forward to spreading the news to help fight and beat this disease.

The Month of May Means.....HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!

I decided to do something different this time.  I have been reading a few books these past couple of years and they have really inspired me.  So I decided to share two books that are on my MUST HAVE list.  MonaLisa Must Have List: The first book will encourage and challenge you all at the same time. It is an Awesome read and I hope you get one for yourself and any female you may know.  How about getting one for mom? That's even better. The book is called A Woman After God's Own Heart by Elizabeth George. You can get it at www.amazon.com or any book store.  I know they would have it at a Christian book store as well. The second book is called Becoming The Woman God Wants Me To Be by Donna Partow . That also would be online at www.amazon.com.  Please get them and let me know what you think.  Thanks and have a blessed night.

One Step At A Time

Hello and Good Morning My Fellow Bloggers,

I am on the grind today.  Getting extra money for the master plan that will take place in about two months.  I told you that I was starting a business, well low and behold, I have two businesses in my belly.  I have a nonprofit and a for profit company.  I am so excited.  The nonprofit of course is my baby CureQuest. The for profit business is called MonaLisa Image Consulting Group.  That is Unique Image on steroids.  I am too excited.  But my focus right now is to make some quick money to pay the bills up for a month and then close some deals that will bring me the big contracts.  Man, when God is for you, he is more than the world against you.  I just need to stay on track.  Stay focused and don't let anything or anyone distract me.  So everyone start praying now if you haven't already.  Peace.

A New Level Beating The New Devils

Well, I really don't know how to start.  I know its been a minute since I have posted anything.  So let me just back up and start over.  Well the last time I posted my Step Father Robert Earl Williams better known as Ole Folks passed away.  So since then my life has turned upside down. In February I had the makeover movement for what I didn't know until now was the last one.  In February we talked about Love.  What is Love and what does it mean to you?  The makeover movement was and always will be a blessing to me.  Even though it is no longer under that title.  We are doing some revamping and reconstruction right now.  So in March, I ended up getting me some new knowledge and understanding spiritually that I later found out saved my life.  March 31 was my son's birthday Menes Osiris Daniels.  He was the one that was killed by a teenage driver back in 2005.  That has been sometime now, but this time it really made me look at some things.  And unannounced to me, his father took it harder than me.  He set in motion an action plan to "rescue" our son that is now 8 years of age from me.  I tell you people I have been through a lot these few months.  But on a higher note.  I decided to start my own business.  It is long over due,

so I am working on getting that started now.  I will keep you posted.

NEW YEAR to break into NEW TERRITORY

OK..so not only are we in the new year, we are in February of the new year.  No one is saying to each other Happy New Year anymore.  We are moving on now.  Getting on with our lives.  We are going about our business.  Well, let me take a moment to say Happy New Year and I hope everyone is working to be a better person on earth this year and for the rest of your lives.  I want to thank God for another year because some people didnt make it. 

My beloved Step Father Robert Earl Williams passed away last month and I have to say it took everyone by surprise.  I guess when anyone dies, it catches you off guard.  But he had gotten ill in December but I guess he never really recovered.  But needless to say, I know he had a good heart.  May God continue to bless our family thru this.  As it says in the Bible, "this too shall pass."

Miss You Ole Folks aka Robert Earl Williams....

ITS ALMOST 2013!!!

I want to be the first one to tell you HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! The New Year starts tomorrow.  Can you believe it?? I am disappointed in just a few things.  I want to start out by kicking myself in the behind about not being able to keep up with the blog they way I should.  I will do better in the next year. I am supper excited about what God has in store for me and the ministry.  God have your way with me.  I know people say, "watch what you pray for" but whatever happens, he is the only one that can help you and save you.  So with that being said, "Lord Use Me" I will be getting back with you guys soon.

January 12th 2013  The MakeOver Movement!!!

Hello Friends!! I just wanted to speak a little more on the MakeOver Movement and how it went.  But before I get to that let me tell you how my Christmas went. Well, I was so excited about Christmas.  I was going to go home to see my mom and family members in Cameron Texas then I was going to stop by Georgetown TX to see my brother and his family and then lastly go to Austin to see my Sister and my niece.  Well, low and behold none of that happened.  My brother's son ended up sick so him and his family didnt have visitors over to protect them from getting sick.  My sister ended up letting her daughter spend Christmas with her father.  I ended up stuck in Dallas Tx because of the snow.  So my mom and family back in Cameron didnt get to see my on Christmas either.  Man, my Christmas surprised the heck out of me but its all good.  I love my family and they know it so prayfully we will have the opportunity to see each other after the New Year.  And speaking of the New Year...yep you guessed it...The MakeOver Movement!!! The movement is January 12th at 9:00am and I am excited and will be praying for the women to come and get delivered.  So I want you guys to continue to keep us in prayer at The Harvest and continue to read and follow.  Love Ya!!

What's Been Going On???

Hello My Fellow Bloggers!!!

I know its been awhile but let me catch you up.  The last time we talked, I was talking about The President of the USA who is of course President Barack Obama!!! I am extremly happy about that.  Now, that is a story within itself.  Thanksgiving rolled around and I spent some time with my brother and his family which was a blessing.  I didnt have any kiddos with me so hangin out by myself has been the norm lately.  Its all good though because a few years ago, I wouldnt havent been able to do it.  I absolutely needed people around me because I didnt know who I was and the little I did know, I didnt like. So the more people around the less I could focus on me.  What a long way God has brought me.  I actually enjoy chillin by myself and going to resturants alone. I love taking myself out on REALLY nice dates.  Places that I can dress up and spend a little money. Smile.  So in December, I have been working on The MakeOver Movement.  This is a movement for Women to make themselves over from the inside out.  I see why God had me alone so I could minister to women for real.  It was December 8th when the Movement gave birth.  There where women from all different backgrounds that were seeking and hungry for change and the movement gave it to them.  We had a panel of 4 women with dynamic testimonies that broke barriers that were generational.  It was a true movement from God.  So I will keep you posted

PRESIDENT OBAMA!!! FOUR MORE YEARS!!!

Wow!! We made it!! I have to admit though, that was a close one, at least for a little while.  The beginning of the race looked a little scary.  I was sitting at my wonderful church Friendship West.  We were having a revival the same night called Bishop 5 + 1.  This revival was just the ice cream on the cake, if you ask me.  Well, getting back to it. During the Bishop's sermon, I was really not trying to hear the updates...it was hard.  But low and behold the race seemed a little tight at first but we pulled it through.  So I know its not a good idea to talk about politics and religion, so to end this conversation I will say,  "And That IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!"

ELECTION TIME!!

Hello my fellow bloggers!! It is election time again and I dont really want to know who you are voting for just as long as you vote. There has been people in our history that has died for the right to vote so please exercise that right and freedom of speech.  I know everyone in the world wants to know but really, I dont!  JUST VOTE!! It is your business and your poragative not to share your vote with anyone.  This world is not going to go crazy if you do or dont.  The leaders who are chosen are still under the main authority who is GOD.  So my prayers is that whoever is elected prays often.  This world is not getting better, its actually getting worse.  So, God please bless not just America but the whole world.  Amen!

ACCEPTANCE.....

Hello Family

Thank you so much for your well wishes on my birthday.  I had such a great time.  It was a beautiful day and I was so peaceful.  I didnt party all night like I would have it I was leaving in "back in the day" mode.  I was just peaceful and grateful for God's grace and mercy.  This post is about a discipline that I pulled for the month of October.  You see every month I try and focus and meditate on a discipline.  I pull from a container with 12 disciplines.  Whatever I pull for the month that is what I focus on.  I read and pray on it.  So the month of October was ACCEPTANCE.  In the begining of the month you never know how its going to unfold.  You just look for it.  In the conversations you have with people.  The attitudes of people around you.  The job, the kids, even me, I have to check me for the signs of the discipline.  This word hit me like a ton of bricks the first couple of days in the month.  I had to learn how to accept people, their attitudes, their way of thinking, etc.  I am still unfolding this one and we are in the middle of the month.  I also have to accept my purpose, my mission, my vision, etc.  So I will keep you posted on anything that really blows me away.  So stay tuned...

ITS MY BIRTHDAY AND I CAN BE GLAD IF I WANT TO!!!

HELLO FAMILY!!!  It's my 41st Birthday Today and I am so blessed and grateful to still be here inspite of what life has thrown at me.  If God let it pass to get to me then he gave me the strength to endure and conquer it.  The people who have followed me all this way, understand the trials and tribulations that I have been through.  Inspite of what comes up in the end I WIN!!!  I wouldnt take back anything that has happened to me.  It caused me to grow in the woman I am today.  So I thank you all for the journey thus far and I pray that you continue to Keep God First!! Selah/Amen

TEST RUN....

Hello Family!! I am thinking about finishing up on a project I started earlier in the year.  I briefly talked about it in a few of the ealier blogs this week.  It was my documentary.  Here is a video from one of the sessions.  I sat down and was asked one question and off I went.  Tell me what you think...

Ok Ladies...Let's Talk About It!!!

Okay ladies...I am going to stretch out on a limb right now and say that we are confused and deranged right now.  We are actually thinking that we are going to get and keep a man just by what we give which is our body. We are thinking that they love us because they continue to have sex with us.  REALLY?? We are going to have to take this thing back a little bit...maybe a lot.  Ladies what happened to waiting?  What really is wrong with telling a man NO.  If he likes you or even if he loves you, he will stick around to get to know you.  If not, let him go.  I plan on having a girls night out but this night is not including club, liquor, or anything like.  This night is going to include educating and getting the word.  This is not church but it will be filled with the inspired word of GOD.  We are going to have to find out where we went wrong and get back on track.  I will be writing on this topic for the up coming weeks. So let me know whatcha think.

Standing Firm and Flat Footed...

I am now in this new time and space in my life where the TRUTH means everything.  Not to say it didnt before but I could except it if you are not trying to hurt my feelings.  Well, now Im like....just tell me the truth whether it cuts like a knife or a dull pare of scissors.  I'd rather hear the truth.  The truth hurts but you can move on faster and heal better.  The better half of my life is approaching and I am going to make the best of it.  I look and feel fabulous.  Not being conceited but confident.  There is a difference you know.  I am moving in God's purpose and plan for my life.  I want to share this joy that I have.  The world didnt give it to me and the world cant take it away. People are now trying to find fulfillment in there jobs, their spouse or significant other, their money and even their children. When the only person that can give you fulfillment is GOD.  This is an easy but hard concept to wrap your brain around.  It sounds to simple but its true.  God is and always will be the great I AM.  He is your food when you are hungry, your joy in times of sorrow, your money when you are broke.  This might be a series that I will start on my blog.  What and who is GOD TO YOU?

Getting Back What I Thought I Lost...

I have been in a state of silence for awhile now.  I have been really concerned about that.  I was thinking to myself, "Have I gave up my dream?" "Have I allowed my dream to be deferred?  Then silently or should I say softly a voice tells me, "NO".  I have not given up. I just needed to regroup.  I needed to get to know me a little better in order to serve someone else.  How can you listen and understand someone else if you are not listening and understanding yourself.  Man, I'm so glad I took the time to answer this question for myself.  Sometimes we just have to take a moment to re-evaluate what we are doing and even who we are.  I love the fact that I can go to the Word of God to confirm and validate myself.  When I am insecure or in doubt..go to the book.  The Word of God is so reassuring and positive.  God will tell you exactly who you are. My job is to just BELIEVE IT!!

Just Catching Up!!

Hello my people!!! Long time no hear from.  On my part for sure.  I havent said anything in almost two months.  My how time flies.  Well, I have quite a bit to catch you up on.  So lets start out by saying, in July around my last post, my middle son came to see me with his girlfriend.  We had a great time.  We went out to eat.  We went to the movies.  We went to the mall.  Man, needless to say, when the weekend was over me and my little one was exhausted.  So after July came August. So nothing really major happend in August but I was so glad that my church was able to have a summer camp for kids that started in June and ended in August.  Awesome isnt even the word for it.  Praise God!!
