Standing outside of the line that separates me from the “world” and the things in it. I can look inside and speak to it. Staying true and honest to myself, has allowed people to look at me and know I come from God. I speak…. they listen.

Learn to GIVE your best…..
Published January 14, 2012 by lacrease
At work we have this food donation box and as I went to go look in it to see what people were giving, I realized that it was all NO NAME BRAND items, and stuff people wouldn’t eat. The boxes were bent in and chewed up on the corners.
This has always bothered me.
Why do people call themselves giving especially when it comes to food, but give THE FOOD THEY WOULDNT EAT? What is the purpose of that? That’s not giving, that’s cleaning out your food pantry and giving away food you can’t see yourself throwing in the garbage. That’s selfish as HELL!!! If you’re going to give, GIVE YOUR BEST. If you’re going to a baby shower, take your best gift. If you’re going to a wedding give your best!!! People get out of the “dollar sto” mentality!!! If you want good gifts you have to learn to GIVE good gifts. I don’t have anything against the dollar store at all ( let me make that clear), but I don’t shop there for myself, and its out of order to shop there for anyone else… IF YOU DON’T SHOP THERE!!!! Yes, I know you can buy cards and other small items there, THATS FINE, but don’t make it a habit to buy a gift for someone from the dollar store.
If you want to donate, go to your OWN food cabinet and give it away. Learn to get in habit of giving away your “good stuff”. Its just “Stuff”. And what bothers me is that the people who are donating say” well, at least I’m giving them something”. What? Food that was headed to the garbage because you didn’t want it? If you want BIG Blessings, you have to give BIG BLESSINGS. We have to put away the “dollar sto” mentality. If you want a lady that wears the same shoe size as you to have some nice shoes, don’t give her shoes that are old and running over, what’s wrong with going to your closet and giving her your best?
I remember when my online Ministry Leader would send for us to come to Chicago to stay at her home, then take us to a resort to be pampered. She would tell us all the time, always give your best, God wants your best, never half step with giving. This was new to me, I felt if you are giving, then nothing should be said about it. But I kept it in my heart, and with the work that I do TODAY, I see how important it is to give your best. She would have gifts and more gifts and more gifts waiting for us. When it was time to fly back to Detroit, I had so much stuff to take with me. She gave us the works, and you can tell she spent good money on it. I was like wow. Here is someone who gives us something and its not cheesy, and not only that, but she had to buy several. And I looked at that and I adopted for myself.
If you want the best from God……learn to GIVE YOUR BEST!

Happy New Year!!!!! Now that the Christmas Season is over, I can calm down ( mentality speaking). LOL Working retail is NO JOKE.
Now, I know the saying goes “the customer is always right”. But NOT this time. And whether or not she wanted to admit it, I put a whopping on her conscience!!!!! This white lady came through my line a few days ago. She was with her 2 kids around the ages of 9 and 11. She had to have been in her early 30′s. When she walked up to the counter, she was very very friendly, and so was her children. Now, when a customer brief you on a certain item, 9 times out of 10, she will dispute you about it later, because she knows there is some controversy about it. As she set her things on the belt, she says to me….. ” I bought one of the different sets to this doll at Christmas and now its on sale”. That told me then that it was some BS in the game. As I got to the doll, I rung it up, and gave her the total. She said oh wow, I don’t have enough money, so she starts taking things off the bill. No problem, I’ll just click the void button. Then she said what is my total? I gave it to her, then she says….”hey how much did that doll ring up for”? I said um $29.99. She said “No, that doll is on sale for $16.99″. I looked at it, and said are you sure, because normally it will ring for the sale price, and the sticker is on it. She said yeah. And I said No, its not on sale, I said well let me call my manager over, then she said….Well Ill go back and get the sale price that was attached to it. So, Im like okay….. She comes back with this sign with tape attached to it saying “Green Jacket” WAS $32.99 now $16.99. I said Maam… what is a Green Jacket? What you want is a baby doll!!!! She said I know but I didnt want the green jacket doll, I wanted this one. I said well okay this sign DOES NOT SAY $16.99 FOR THE DOLL YOU WANT. She said but the sign was hanging on this doll. I said, you went back and got that sign, and its NOT the same one. I said maam LOOK……this doll RINGS up for $29.99 and the sticker price SAYS $29.99. She ( kept this permanent business smile on ALL WHILE we went back and forth about it). The she says….but this is the sign that was on it. JUST LYING!!!! I said maam I REFUSE to let you leave here NOT UNDERSTANDING what IM SAYING TO YOU. I said listen, If this sign said DIET COKE $16,99 and YOU BRING ME A REGULAR COKE…… WOULD YOU EXPECT ME TO GIVE YOU THAT COKE FOR THAT PRICE JUST BECAUSE THE “STICKER” WAS ON IT? She said ( in that dam business smile) AND I HAD MINES ON TOO ( ONE OF THE MANY …NENE LEAKES FACIAL EXPRESSION) 
I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU’RE SAYING, BUT THIS STICKER WAS HANGING ON THERE!!! I said to myself if this heffa say that ONE MO TIME!!!!!!! I said maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam, IF YOU GO AND GET THE GREEN JACKET DOLL , JUST LIKE THE TICKET SAYS, THEN I WILL HONOR THE PRICE ( it would AUTOMATICALLY RING UP FOR THE SALE PRICE)………. Then she said BUT I DONT WANT THAT ONE…. I know my voice went up to 6 when she said that, cause I followed up and said, ………..MAAM PLEASEEEEEE PLEASEEEEEEEEE PLEASEEEEEEEEE TELL ME that you ARE GETTING WHAT IM SAYING…….. ( in my mind I’m saying I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE THIS DAYUM STUPID LADY WTH ARE YOU SERIOUS?) !!!!!!!! …….THEN SHE LAWYER UPED UP ON ME. LOL LOL LOL
She said well, can I see your manager? I knew then that she was going to win, THANKS TO THE PERSON who came over. He came over, looked at the doll, and gave it to her. Oh, I was pissed. If my insides could burn up, I would have been on fire right there at the register. She kept that business smile on that irrated me to NO END. Her kids were watching it all. We weren’t screaming or anything, but her kids saw first hand HOW TO SCHEME!!! SMH. After my shift was over, I marched MY #VIRGO self to the toys department, and guess what I saw? The DOLL THAT SHE HAD WAS IN THE SPOT OF $29.99. and RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT NEXT TO IT WAS THE GREEN JACKET DOLL SPOT. SHE SNATCHED THAT STICKER SIGN OFF THE GREEN JACKET SPOT AND BOUGHT IT TO THE REGISTER. LYING FAKE PHONY HEFFA!!! My thang is this, I could have given her that doll for $15.o0…… but she stood there and LIED, and I knew better. She wouldn’t be honest for nothing in the world. She wanted her daughter to have the doll so badly, and her daughter saw first hand how to get your way, if you LIE AND STEAL. It s not even about giving it to her, its about me going to get lengths to get her to understand that YOU ARE WRONG. QUIT SCHEMING FOR DAYUM $16.00. I had a headache after dealing with her and her lies. Had one of my other managers came to my register SHE WOULDN’T HAVE GOTTEN JACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And you know whats funny? When I call a manager over, I NEVER LET A CUSTOMER DO THE BRIEFING… I DO IT!!! This is how I presented my case. I said…this doll rings up for $29.99, and THE STICKER THATS ON THE DOLL SAYS $29.00. When it didn’t ring up for the price “she said”, she went back and bought back a sticker that says “Green Jacket” and that is no where on the BOX of this DOLL that she wants to purchase. ( THEN SHE SPEAKS BLAH BLAH LIE) Then he looked at it, then looked back at my line ( which was longer than the letters in Mississippi) and then said “GIVE IT TO HER”. SMHHHHH HUH.LOL ANYWAYYY
NOW LOOK AT THE PHOTO ABOVE….. TELL ME WHY SHE DIDNT WANT THE GREEN JACKET DOLL?
LIFE GOES ON!!

A time to HAVE YOUR OWN…La’Crease’s Blog
Published December 21, 2011 by lacrease
When I was coming up my momma always taught me/us to have our own. My mom would borrow sugar, floor from our neighbors back in the day, but our neighbor borrowed way more, and my momma would say, always have your own stuff so that you won’t have to borrow from anyone. It was good information to know, but when I got on my own for the first time, shooo, seems like I always needed something. I would borrow money from my friends, and no telling what else. But now that I have grown up…. I enjoy being the Lender.
A friend came to me last week and told me about someone I know, and for me to talk to this person because they are always asking others for things that are suppose to have. I haven’t talked with this person yet, but I will this week. I guess what I’m writing to say is… work towards having your own. There is nothing like having your own car, money, house, job, personal needs, and anything else that you need to have and get by.
People are willing to help you more if you are known for helping yourself. After a while people will start to look at you as a person who always want something, and it will start to look as if you feel someone owes you ….and they don’t! When you have your own things it puts you in position to be a blessing to to others, instead of always looking for someone to bless you. When people realize that you are a MISUSER, you will look up and see that no one is there for you, and you will be force to learn the hard way.
One day (1995) my friend Gloria asked me if she could see my purse calender to check a date, she was horrified to see all of her check dates and other dates that she received money on, was checked off on my calender. We laughed for years about it, but she cut me off from borrowing money because she realized that since I knew her check days, I was asking her for money on those days. And even though I always paid her back, my days of borrowing from her was cut short. I MISUSED her. I’m finding that a lot of people do this to each other, they don’t want to do whats necessary to keep themselves supplied so that they can have their own. They find it easier to just borrow. But I’m here to tell you, your “Credit” with folks will wear out, and you will be on your own. Only borrow from others when its truly necessary, and God will soften their hearts for you, so that you won’t go without.
There will be times, places, things that you will have to sit out on, and that’s okay. Don’t feel that its a must that you do everything you want, but because you want it, you have to borrow. Learn to sit some things out. When you borrow, pay it when you say you can, and if you can’t CALL THAT PERSON, don’t text, or send a message by someone else. Keep your good credit up with folks so that when you really need something, they will see it in your eyes, and in your speech, and in your heart, and God will lay it on them to help you. When you have your OWN, you are NOW in position to HELP OTHERS. That’s the biggest picture that God wants us to get.
Photo above is of my personal bag I carry to work with me daily, I have everything I need to start my day. If I need to borrow anything from a coworker….. I’m good for it, because I’m known for having my own, and paying up on the day that I say I will.
Below is a Video of me riding home ( I love to drive) from picking up a donation for the Homeless last month. Listening to Karen Clark-Sheard and Kierra Sheard. I love THIS SONG!! Be Blessed.

Hey,
Whats up people with the attitudes during the Christmas Holiday? You know and I know how long the longs are, and we are all trying to buy what we want and get out of dodge. Man…..it was several fights and countless arguments at my store this season. LOL A few of them was funny. I was ringing up customers and laughing at the same time today. I couldn’t stop, I kept having laughing out burst. LOL Everybody is so sensitive. The part that trips me out is, these people KNOW what its like during this season. They know there are no good parking spaces, they know the aisle are going to be crowded, they know toys will be hard to find, they know people don’t move or say excuse me. LOL Still they act is if its their first Christmas and they don’t know what to expect. I laugh and I have nothing to say…LOL
What is going on with our kids today? Why are these parents letting them get away with smart mouths? I use to tell my Sister all the time, when you let your kids walk around the store while you shop, or let them “express” themselves, when they are older you can’t get them to shut their mouths. I hate to see my sister going head up with my nephew, I don’t care how grown he is, I will say something. Call me the whopping momma, but theygurltheycallcree don’t play with kids. As a parent, you must say what you need to say, let them know you are not mad, you’re not holding anger, and let them go on by their business. Don’t sit there and preach, then turn around and ask them how they feel, or what do they think about the situation. Hell its over. I’m done. Then as they get older, they will start to feel that they must tell you how they feel, and guess what? When they were kids it was “cute”, but when they are 17 and 18 it comes out totally different . MY thing is this, everybody gets a turn to “be grown”… its MY TURN. And when your turn comes, you be grown to YOUR kids. Right now, I’m the “plant manager” aint nobody gon out talk me in MY house, on MY subject. *hard stare…lips almost to the side*.
Just today at work this Chinese couple was at the register paying for their things, when their daughter who was no older than 5 starting screaming and crying acting a dayum fool cause she wanted something and couldn’t have it. This little gurl screamed so loud, long and continuously that it didn’t make no sense. Her daddy wanted to lay her to rest, BUT the momma was like No….. then the little gurl did something that almost took me outta here mentality……she was hitting her momma, screaming, kicking. Everybody was looking, and staring, and saying everything. It was a shame how that gurl cut up in Walmart today. Had that been Neisha back in the day, I would have shut Walmart down for at least an hour. Think you’re going to embarrass me in the store, OH BABY…..WE’SSSS ABOUT TO TURN WALMARKS ( with an K) OUT!!!!! LOL But she’s a good gurl, she learned EARLY. HAHA
Which leads me to this video and topic. How do you let your kids talk back to an adult? I’m 44 years and I call ALL my coworkers Ms. How do you disrespect an adult and you’re a kid? The mother is just as bad!!! Anyway take a look at this video, it has a LOT OF CURSING IN IT, (beware) BUT IT HAPPENED AND ITS REAL LIFE. I am LOVING THE END RESULTS! The kids didn’t die, but they did learn a lesson (hopefully). Take a look
Doing….Ms. Walker~ Cree’s Blog
Published December 17, 2011 by lacrease
Thank God its Friday!!! Been doing a lot of thinking lately about myself. And I have come to the conclusion that I think about helping everyone else but myself. I don’t even know how I came to this place, but for the last week I’ve been very quiet and just watching the things I say and how I go about my life.
Last Thursday when we got our bonus, I bought myself a laptop. I put it in our layaway and when it was time to get it out, I had a hard time accepting the fact that this was for me. I spent $500.00 on me and I was having a hard time with it. I haven’t told anyone about it, as a matter of fact when my sister was over, I actually hid it before I opened the door for her. But she came right in and told me that she and her husband was buying a NEW car within the week. She was happy and I was happy for her, but why can’t I be happy for myself? Its not like I don’t feel like I deserve it, but I feel that I can be doing for others. I feel like I have things, and God has Blessed me. I dunno 
Here it is a week and a day later, and still I haven’t shared with anyone the new laptop I bought for myself. Truth is, I believe that I should be buying family and friends $500.00 worth of gifts. But how did I come to this conclusion that I should be doing that for them, when I need want and desire this laptop. Why can’t I just be happy and enjoy it? One thing I know for sure, this cannot go on into 2012.
So many things God told me in the past that was going to happen has came to pass. And then there are things that haven’t came and to me it seems as if I’m hindering those things. As if, I’m scared for them to happen for me. That is so crazy. Where does this kinds of crazy thoughts come from?
Anyway enough of that…… I have sat for 3 days quietly, its been 8 days since I bought the gift for myself and from this day forward I will not feel undeserving of the Blessings from God, I will accept them and be glad about it. I promise to do things for myself as I continue to Bless others, I will let God do his work, and I will be THANKFUL!!

At 44, its funny that all of my gurlfriends have fake names. Mines is Lisa. I only use it when I meet a guy who I’m not feeling. Still to this day, I use it. One day this guy came through my line and asked me my name…..why did I say Lisa… forgetting that my name badge was on. LOL SMH
I have a word for everyone who shops.
When a cashier is ringing up your items, take the time to look up and see for yourself what you owe. Yes, she will tell you the amount…. no problem it is her job….but at some point when you have to ask 4 times, you have to want to look up. I’m not being mean, but sometimes we get so use to others telling us the time ( wear a watch), picking up money when it falls ( do it for others too), opening the door to the store ( let someone else walk in first and YOU hold the door). People think just because you’re punched in and on the clock, you’re suppose to THINK for them all day until you punch out. And I say this….. do for yourself while you can, because Lord forbid if you get into a car accident you can’t do anything for yourself. Those people who are helping you will remember that when you were in position to help yourself…. you didn’t, because you relied on others to do everything. And at some point you’re going to feel bad ( if you care).
When I go to bed at night, I try to get as much sleep as I can, so that when I go to work, I can have enough “brain juice” to function with. Now I will share 30% with others who choose not to use theirs. But dang boo, when I’m entering that 7th hour at work, and you’re asking me simple questions like “are these all my bags”,or “where are my bags” when the spinner is right there and you can clearly see for yourself, you GOTTA HELP ME……HELP YOU. Or when they ask “where is the bathroom” when its right in your face. At some point in the day… my “brain juice” will get low…. I won’t allow NOBODY to use up mines while they still have theirs.Im a teacher first, I will show you how to do things for ya self. LOL LOL Are you serious? Then at the end of the day when its time for me to go home, I’m tired, talking crazy, and missing my exit off the freeway cause people asking stupid questions and expecting me to answer them…..leaving me with 1% of “brain juice” to get home on. LOL Nah. Now I don’t mind sharing( helping you cause you don’t want to think on your own), but if mines is used up, and you still have some left that’s not right. * blank stare*. So people please use your heads on simple stuff. Don’t come right in the door and ask…..where is your soap? What kinda stuff is that? I’m in this huge store pointing in directions we both cant see. Then that’s another % of my “brain juice” gone. LOL Sigh….
So…. Thursday we got a bonus!!! I paid some bills, put some aside for Christmas gifts, and then I bought me a very nice laptop. I have a desk top for my home office, but I like to write in different places. Being in my office all the time does something to my thinking process, so now I can go to the river, or downtown to write. But the issue is… I feel bad that I bought myself something when its this close to Christmas. I feel as if I should have spent it on Christmas gifts.I need to get out of that space where I feel bad for buying myself stuff. So….. today when my sister came over….. I hid it.After she left, I kept asking myself why did you do that? Why did you do that Cree? So the next time my sister(s) come over, I’m not hiding my stuff. But check this out, my sister tells me TODAY while she was over, that this week she’s buying a NEW car. So why the hell am I hiding stuff? SMH @ myself. LOL I LOVE MY SISTERS AND BROTHER SO MUCH!!!!! 
Oh well, time for bed….. Jan-July Feeding the Homeless projects going down!!!!

Before I get into “Inside the mind of Ms. Walker ( La’Crease), I want to tell a little about myself.
I am a person who loves people, I have a 4-5 piece circle of close friends, and if anyone who knows me would describe me AS… FUNNY/SILLY, HONEST, TRUTHFUL, LOYAL, AND SPEAKS HER MIND. I’m a cashier at walmart, im very independent, loves the lord and fear him. im the oldest of 4 children, they call me bossy, but they love me and treasure my advice. im a friend to the homeless, cant stand bullies, and will diss you in a new york minute, when i realize that you are dishonest with my friendship. when i walk into a room i…own it…..not nene leakes (LOL) with my smile, personality and the friendly tone of my voice.
i love the elderly, treasure our teens, and find it hard to understand the mentality of our women and men. opinions are nothing to me…..unless you are out and about doing something to change the situation. homeless people are my mission, if i catch someone talking down on them, laughing…..or even saying”they could get a job” its on! my favorite person in the bible ( of course other than jesus) is paul… if paul was here on earth…. WE WOULD BE BFF For LIFE..when i say i love this man… i love this man!!!
being friendly is a plus to my personality, because all my childhood friends remember me as being mean, praise god that is no longer my life. what makes me memorable? the fact that im not afraid to show my feelings. im very affectionate, and uses the words boo, baby, sweety, mommas gurl, suga, honey, and pretty face to pretty much everyone i come in contact with. i cant stand gossip, if you have a story to tell, tell me, but it must includes you. if its about someone else, tell it to your best friend….she’ll understand your motive… i wont.
i love to drive, when i marry, i want my husband to buy me a fast car, and every now and then when i have a need for speed, i promise to be safe. i want and desire a husband to be himself at all times, trying to please cree off falseness will get us in trouble. i believe that the best friends in your life are the ones you already have. one thing i hate the most in life is….looking into the eyes of a woman and seeing fakeness.women should always have a spirit about them that is trust Worthy and honest.
i believe that if you’ve had a bad childhood, you will either grow up and do good, or do bad….i say to the good…..good for you…. to the bad….allow me to help you.
with all that said….lets begin a random series of Inside the mind of ms. walker (la’Crease)

Never use SUGAR on the TRUTH….Cree’s Blog Entry
Published November 20, 2011 by lacrease
Whew, where do I start. Lord, I must Thank you for keeping me sane, and for standing near me when I was about to lose it.
I’m a busy woman. I have a lot going on in my life, and it involves communicating with a LOT OF PEOPLE. Over the years I had to cut my circle down to only those friends who are on my level mentality and spiritually. I’m a person who doesn’t use SUGAR on the TRUTH. And finally in my life, FINALLY….FINALLY…I have learned that I can be me, even if I have to be brutality honest with someone, and not lose sleep over it. I’m a person who keeps an open mind to everything. I’m always willing to listen and learn. That’s my first attraction I have to others. I’m a listener.
Today, this lady ( about my age or a little younger) came through my line with her daughter who had to have been about 24. She looked at me and with this sarcastic and FUNKY TONE and said “Hello, how are you”. The way she said it made me look up. I looked her dead in the eye and said ” Hello, I’m fine. So, I guess she realized that I knew that she was being funny. Just so happened that I was training this new guy, and as I stood there waiting on her to give me the money for her items. I noticed that she was taking a very long time. That’s when her daughter let out this loud and obnoxious laugh. I knew then, that this daughter knew her mother was acting a fool. I looked at the lady to see what was taking her so long, and I said to myself, she’s doing this on purpose. The guy that I was training noticed it, and so to “kill time” he started asking me some training questions. Afterwards, I turned to the lady to see if she was ready to hand me the money ( people in my line was staring at her like she was crazy). She was taking her own sweet time, purposely trying to set me off. So, after about 2 minutes of her digging slowly in her wallet, I knew for a fact what she was doing, and decided that since I had to wait on her, I TURN MY BODY COMPLETELY TO my trainee and communicated to him somethings about the job, OH SHE DIDNT LIKE THAT……she wanted me to LOOK AT HER, AND WAIT FOR HER. She clearly had me messed up….. I WISH I WOULD!!! Me and the trainee started talking about the different things, and when she realized that SHE WAS ON HER TIME, and that I WAS GETTING PAID and that I HAD ALL DAY……. BUT SHE DIDNT. She decided that she wanted to give me the money. Instead of her saying “maam here you go”. She screams and says ” HEREEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I turned around and looked at her…… then when I went to get the money out of her hand, she had it so close to her breast that I had to reach out to get it, she didn’t want to stretch her arms out across the belt to give it to me, she wanted me to reach for it. I DID…… as I did it, I told my trainee this RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM BOTH…… Remember …. YOU SET THE ATMOSPHERE IN YOUR LINE. YOU ARE THE LEADER…….ALWAYS SMILE AND BE NICE TO PEOPLE NO MATTER WHAT. She didn’t like that at all, I hand her the change and told her to have a nice day.
#GURLBYE
My point….. I’m trying to understand what is the purpose of coming into MY LIFE, and trying to add me to the ” I’m mad at her list”. Okay and…….. she and her daughter will have something to talk about in the car, then maybe tell a few others just to have a conversation. What is the point? Is this your job for today? Did you really punch Satan’s time clock today? You could have called off you know?
I have a million things to do, I have so many phone calls to return, I have to meet folks to do things for me concerning the homeless. I have money from paypal waiting to go into my account, and still I haven’t done that yet. I have money to take to my bank, people at work coming up to me with merchandise for the Homeless, I had ( I went) my great nieces BD party to go to this evening. I have to get off work and find gifts for the baby. I have so many things to do, and here comes this lady doing whatever she can to transfer her GARBAGE to me. I’m not even upset, my question is………where does this come from? I’m finding this to happen all the time. A lot I can ignore, but lately its been bad.
There is so much in this world that can be discussed to get done. So many people hungry and homeless. Don’t come barking at me…..cause this VIRGO will pull out her CANINES. Meaningless conversations kills me. I’m not about to debate or argue with anyone, either you like it or you don’t, you either will or you won’t. Conversations these days should be quick and to the point when you know what you’re going to do. I’m not about to spend 40 minutes on a topic when a person mind is already made up, Chose one and move on. Its either A or B. * blank stare*
I’m a teacher at heart. When I speak its to teach and to learn . I’m not a person who puts sugar on the truth. I carry salt in my purse NOT sugar. This lady came through my line, and she didn’t want to lift a finger. I had a lot to ring up and ask her in my nicest voice ( showing all my teeth).. “Maam, can you do me a favor and start loading your bags in your cart, so that I can have space and continue to ring?” She said ” I didn’t know I came here to work”! In my mind I laughed a little, cause I’m saying to myself…… These are YOUR items…… HELP ME HELP YOU!!!! What is wrong with that, most people will say OMG , IM SORRY….. LET ME GRAB THESE BAGS!!! Then these are the same people who will get older and want/need a person to help them, BUT when they were in position to HELP THEMSELVES they wouldn’t. These are the kind of people who feel others owe them something. SMH. I feel really bad for a lot of people. People who think others OWE THEM ARE THE WORST PEOPLE!!!
In other NEWS……. Its almost time to go and pass out dinners to the Homeless for Thanksgiving. We do this Wednesday Nov 23, 2011. We are feeding 90-100 people and I’m very excited. This year we had so many people to donate, that I didn’t get a chance to let my FB friends be apart of it. So many people sent me messages asking why didn’t I post it. I feel bad in a way, but usually my out of town friends help, and my Walmart family. They filled the need, my issue is always space in the trucks and cars. It takes a lot of space to hold 90 dinners with 3 deserts and 3 drinks. I need a truck. I hope that I can come up with some money to get me one next year before I move to Atlanta. I really need this. All I do is pray about it, so hopefully something with give soon.
Im closing for now. Remember people NO ONE OWES YOU ANYTHING!!! Do for yourself while your CAN…… cause one day you/me/we are going to get OLD, and that’s when you really cant do for yourself. Then you will feel good about receiving the help. But come on now, stop thinking someone owe you something while you are young. do what you can. Also, stop the meaningless conversations……..MAN, ITS TIRESOME AND IGNORANT. Either you like it or not, either its Yes or No, Holding a conversation about a subject you have already made your mind up on is MEANINGLESS!!!
GOD LOVES YOU!
