A Woman's Soul: Restored

We live in a society where our focus is on material things instead of the essentials of a person. We will say they are a good person because they have this or that but we may not even know the actual person. We may even lower our value of ourselves if we do not own certain things or live a certain way; even to the point of accepting negative treatment because of finances. Join Latonia this week as...

There may be situations that happen in our lives where we may feel like we just can't make another move in any direction, but most of the time, forward progress stops. We can get caught up in the situation more than focusing on what we need to be doing. It is easy to say what we would do if certain occurrences were to happen in our lives, but what if those situations happen; what would we do in th...

We never go into an argument with the intent on anything happening to the person we are having a heated disagreement with. We want to passionately get our point across, and in the midst of doing that, things can become heated. How many times have you been in an argument and lost it?

How do we look at a man that open a vehicle door for a woman, or better yet, how do we look at that woman that is getting the door opened for her?

With so much going on in the world, it may be hard to think about what can we each do as individuals to make the world a safer and better place. It is even harder to think that how can we have help to offer if we cannot even help ourselves.

Life, and all it's characteristics, can put us a tail-spin emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and yes physically.

Why does it get to that point and how does pressure redefine who we are as wonen? Join Latonia this week as she discusses what pressure does to women in long-term relat...

Children...they are a joy, our grounding place, our teachable moments, they can cause us to feel like pulling our hair out then turn around and have us crying because of something they have achieved. One thing they are is naive and very trusting. That is why they need us to keep their best interest at heart and to protect them. We need to use our adult minds to think for their child minds. We cann...

Life is full of trials that lead to lessons. It may seem hard but even starting over has a lesson in it.

Money is not evil but the love of it is. Whatever we are, good or bad, money gives us the means to either do the greater good or fulfill the grosiest of fantisies. It can be hard to believe that the people we watch on TV, listen to their songs, or laugh at their comedy can be people that molest and traffic children, beat and rape women, and participate in unspeakable crimes but is it hard to belie...
