Black Friday or Broke Friday Just as an aside, I’ve never understood the frenzied shopping practiced on Black Friday. I guess I never will. I like Deborah’s slogan, ‘don’t hate, donate.’

Common man, There’s something about this poem that had me thinking of Shakespeare and Charles Dickens. I truly enjoyed it.

Ten things to be happy about An interesting list. I’ve always believed that happiness is an inside job and finding things to be happy about is my business 🙂

Who’s for slavery, show of hands A thought provoking post and here’s my opinion below.

Humanity has been dogged by slavery in many forms over the ages, some have been totally brutal while some are covert like the modern day slavery where a picture is painted that the victims are working for their money. I truly doubt if slavery will ever end as long as man inhabits the earth. It would only reduce due to awareness, but the greed for money will never allow it to fizzle away.
With what my eyes have seen, heard and read, if not for stringent measures that make it difficult to acquire slaves in today’s time, there are still so many who would jump on the wagon of enslaving others in the Western World.

52 weeks of thankfulness We can never thank those who support us enough. Brigid shares her thoughts.

Lydia Step into Lydia’s and say hey. You’ll find posts on life-lessons, bipolar, chronic pain, creativity and much more.

We’ve howdied but we ain’t shook. What an excellent saying that I didn’t know before, which brings me to ask you, what’s your price tag on your ethics?

Phenomenal Maya Angelou The passage below from Bluertide grabbed and held my attention. Maya Angelou is one of my flame’s of inspiration.

My path didn’t cross with many strong females growing up. I lacked a parent that would reveal to me the uniqueness, strength and beauty I held. I had few female idols, and those I noticed seemed to follow the same faux type of vain girl power my mother held. This resulted in a string of bad choices on my part. I didn’t realize until later in life that I controlled my fate, my body, and my beliefs. I deserved respect. Maya Angelou spoke to me like the mother I needed. Her words hit me with brutal honesty mixed with love. In my head I heard her saying  “child, you need to respect yourself first. You can sway those hips but only you control who’s grabbin’ a hold of ’em.”

Share your world – Listen to your heart, don’t hate. Help!

Lotus – A Tanka poem A beautiful poem. We should all be Lotus’s.

Your warrior within Reading this story made me wonder how many women are brutalized each day in their so-called homes, yet the hide it behind layers of foundation, mascara, and a worn-out smile?

Relish in the orange This is what I call a sweet write, with a recipe too 🙂

Beyond the sky Will you come with me?

Table for one I love how Van paints this. Many a time, I choose to be all by myself, to savour the solitude of being alone without feeling lonely.

The day democracy died This article sums it up. America, which way forward?

That will cost you A thought-provoking good read to start the day with. In the author’s words below:

We artificially inseminate our lives with isolation, disconnection, and cocoon in disappointment. The knock at the door is the same; what will this cost if I choose to never try again? Maybe it is worth it to re-engage in the things I place a high value on. If I stay stunted it could cost me and I might forfeit the very reason I’m alive! Just maybe, in fact, it is worth it. We might need to risk again.

Staying on top of work I know that many of us wonder where the day ran off to especially when you look at your to-do list with tons of stuff still left to do. This post is a simple tip that would help.

How I see myself Encouraging, inspiring, eye-opening post to say the least.

Nanowrimo memes Ha,ha! This made me chuckle a bit. I know how tough writing NaNo is.

October Fall Take a walk in the park, listen to music, enjoy it while the weather still permits such decadence 🙂

Full of memories Some posts turn me into a watering pot. Beautiful, sad, poignant and yes, beautiful. Listen to the music too 🙂

Could I have just a little more time? I read this heartfelt post and could empathize as well as relate. There are those moments in time when we wish that we could switch time just a wee bit, but each day, life teaches me a lesson that the love we receive from our loved ones is given freely despite our warts and all.

Life Cameos I totally enjoy Life Cameo’s poetry’s and prose. She has a way of bringing everyday people and life into words that leave me satisfied as though I read a full novel in few stanzas.

Dear Self Lovely post and idea. I think I’ll write myself a letter for Christmas.

Teeny tiny itty bitty One word is cute. How do people fit into this itty, bitty cars?

How do you define a good woman? Who is a good woman? Are you the exceptional Proverbs woman? Well, I, Jacqueline ain’t one! A thought-provoking read for you.

Wordless Wednesday creative, fun and eerie to look at 🙂

Oddball This made me smile. Sweet and babyish but I like it 🙂

Going in This would be my best read for today. Raw, candid, painful, sweet, and teary too. Addiction and handling it is not easy on the sufferer as well as their loved ones. Please read.

Curry bard Now this is a lovely poem. I enjoyed the images created, the sound of the trundling train, the waft of curry dishes. A good read for today.

Self a mirage we swing through these emotions, edging on the highs of elation, depression, and oppression. Life is certainly a rollercoaster.
