Moving from "pre-engagement", to engagement, to marriage can be a long, albeit fun, process. The waiting is often the hardest part. Hours can fly by while the hopeful imagine how their mates will pop the big question. Then there are those who will never go beyond the "pre-engaged" stage because of mistakes they unknowingly to make. Let’s take a look at the seven of those mistakes...
When I first heard that Beyonce song, it became my anthem! My girl B put it down! She said "Pull me into your arms, Say I'm the one you want, If you don't, you'll be alone and like a ghost I'll be gone!" How powerful! Here is the problem that I pose this evening ladies... what happens when he doesn't say your the one he wants? Do you leave? Do you stay? Do you set ultimatums and force the issue? Do you let him give you one ring and wait another 5 years for a second one?
So, my sister’s finally done it, she’s got hitched with the guy she’s been with for seven years and I couldn’t be more happy for her. I’m even happier that after trying on dress, after dress, after dress and attending more wedding shows that I can count on both hands, she finally was able to find the dress of her dreams.

The blog writing process has been a lot of fun, but it’s time for me to move on and add new items to my portfolio. There is little that is as fulfilling to me as freestyle writing; but everything comes to an end or it evolves into a greater experience and that is what writing always does for me. I’ve decided to give my last blog of this year a twist. Although my own thoughts are obviously what I convey, I’ve decided to go back to the topic of passion. I recently interviewed two young men that are very passionate about what they do and why they do it. They both are perfect examples of why none of us should stay in careers that aren’t fulfilling. If you’re not enjoying your life’s passion through your everyday gig, then truly you are only working to survive…and simply put, “you are not living”!
“ Alicia… Don’t believe the hype, men can change diapers too!”
Upon hearing it I laughed, but I would soon discover that this advice, would become my “words to live by.”
For the first time in my life I now had someone, who solely depended on me for everything.
I would soon come to find out that my husbands idea of help, didn't seem to be much help at all.
All this month, I’m going to be writing about “Passion”. I don’t want you to think of it as an emotion or even a feeling; let’s discuss it in the form of “accomplishing a goal”. To be very honest, years ago, when I thought or heard the word “passion”, I instantly thought of, love, sex, or a certain degree of lust. Now that I am a passionate woman with a purpose, my viewpoint has changed immensely.
"I believe in this industry and the people in it.
Kardashian Overload!
The cover of US weekly reads “Kim Defends Her Love” and there’s a cheesy picture of a scantily clad Kim K. and her husband Kris Humphries sitting on a beach chair, next to a pool.
First, my question is… Who’s causing her to defend this “Love,” and second, would they please stop?...
American’s use “Stuck” as an art form. If we’re not stuck in a relationship, we’re stuck at a
certain weight or stuck in a horrible job and some are even stuck in religion. In this blog I want to open up that never ending cycle of how we aren’t able to get out of circumstances that are detrimental to us.
I couldn’t muster up the confidence to go back to my sixth period PE cla

What was once a social gathering for the popular kids, was now a never-ending catfight that always ended with me being emotionally ripped to shreds. I felt so stupid at times because I was afraid to speak up for myself, in fear that I would have to make a habit of it.
Seemed as if I was teased for everything, my shoes, my clothes, my hair, and my weight.
I had now come to realize that in their eyes, I would never be good enough...
Today, homosexuality is on the rise in the African American community. It’s now ok to be “Gay” more now than it was 10 years ago. When I was growing up you may have suspected someone of being gay but it was almost taboo to speak about it especially in the black church. The issue for me isn’t gay men, and the only reason for this blog is the “DL Brothas” (Down Low) who are leading heterosexual lives in front their family, friends and coworkers but having homosexual romances in other words “living a double life” with other men.
The first time we heard talented neo-soul artist Neyo sing his top charted single "Ms Independent" We loved it. Then it was the sexy and soulful Jamie Foxx and Neyo with the song "She Got Her Own" and we ate right into their hands. Singing and bobbing our head to these songs. But I ask the question..."What Are the Reasons Men Want an Independent Woman?"
