In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled?
I have always been taught work smarter, not harder so and everything that I have done I have always found ways to optimize my productivity with out, overdoing it on my body since I love working with children, the goal is to not over, lift them or strain myself in the process of caring for them. This way I am teaching them effort. Oh, responsibility for their bodies and their brains without hurting themselves, and using their smarts more than their ability to use their muscles your brain is the most powerful muscle in your body and using that is the greatest thing I believe you can use to accomplish things in life, along with common sense.
I sometimes wonder what happened to society I was reading a post about a person who went into a fast food restaurant to get something to eat not inside through the drive-through and they ordered some nuggets because they had a deal going on you order the 10 or 20 piece and you’ll get it a free fry with it small or large so she got a large and matter fact she got two free large fries with it. She told them the kind of sauces that she wanted for the nuggets and when I’m through the line she paid for it before she got there cause she ordered it online, the app since everything is done by app these days, but as she got through the line paid for her stuff left got home she realized that not only has she not gotten the kind of nuggets that she ordered. She didn’t even get any sauce for the nuggets as she thought about that, she just kept thinking how society is always complaining about wages and pay and how people don’t get a living wage and she just kept thinking how the government keeps lifting wages to make life easier but when she needs something and she goes to get simple things like the food that she wants to eat from a simple fast food restaurant Who is now going to be making $15-$20 an hour she can’t even get her order correct even though she’s putting so much time to learn what she’s learned at the job that she does that she hast to get correct or someone’s life could be in danger or someone’s Family could be hurt if she gets it wrong and she thinks about how all of these people don’t take their career and live seriously but they always take their pay seriously but they don’t put in the effort. It is when it comes time to go towards that future, they just want society to feel sorry for them and give them a leg up And then she wanders why are we as a society OK with that? Why are we always so willing to give give give instead of challenging people to do better with their self and their goals in life when will we start letting them know that if you want better, you need to do better you can’t expect a hand out all the time and still think that you deserve everything that other people have worked really hard for you can’t become an overnight sensation when you’ve only practice one Time, you want become a superstar singer if you only sang in the bathroom, so that record deal will not be coming your way you won’t be the lead cook at a restaurant if your favorite dish is cereal us as a society have got to begin to stand up for the things that we have worked hard for and stop letting people jump in and demand what they have not earned because it’s not fair to each and everyone of us and it’s definitely not OK when we keep getting the wrong stuff for what we paid for that was just an observation. Have a great evening.
What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?
The aspects of my cultural heritage that I am most proud of is how we come together when something needs to be done, and we put our strength in our numbers and accomplish the goal that we are seeking out to accomplish. How we manage to put our differences aside and really focus on, the goal at hand to make whatever is the issue at hand to go away even if we all go our separate ways after that, we will stand together on that issue to make it a top priority to get it accomplished no matter how long it takes no matter how much it may Keep us from doing something else at that moment it is the most important thing that needs to be accomplished, and we will do any and everything to accomplish it until it is done for example, in Alabama when the man was being attacked everyone stopped what they were doing at that moment to go and Protect him. It didn’t matter what was happening around him or them. They stopped another example when they made Rosa parks get off the bus and was disrespectful to her. We stopped riding the bus and it took over a year, but we persisted to make it happen, so that they would give us equal rights to ride the bus freely and fairly another example is when we want it to be able to vote we stopped, allowing them to treat us any other kind of way, and we’ve been together to accomplish, making it a nationwide goal to not work with anything they have going on to make it happen every time when it’s something that we all want we will stand together to make it happen that is something that I love about my culture. We still are that way just in a different way now, and I appreciate that inner strength that we have to do that in order to accomplish the goal of having us matter things like that or what keeps us moving forward And all of us working together we still have a long way to go, but I do appreciate that about my culture, even though it takes an immense strength and something major to happen for us to do that the fact that we will do it I love it about us And I appreciate my culture for it
What are you most worried about for the future?
I have always wanted to be remembered as someone who helped and made a difference in my families life that I have memories to cherish with my kids, grandkids and great grands along with my brothers and sisters that I was a generous person and I built a legacy that would help not only children grow into productive human beings, but also would build well for generations to come so that my family would have a family business that was surrounded by mental health, togetherness the village concept of raising children, and the connectedness of having one generation after another know each other, and be together. This is not what I see in my family society, and the world at large, my fear is that we will become a technological society and forget what it feels like to have that connection with each other to where we understand how each other thinks how each other is dependent on one another and able to function in this world so that you understand subliminal messages you understand the simple things I decide I you understand when you’re talking too much you understand when you go out to eat, you don’t act a monkey These things are important attributes of human life and it is so important for me to be able to be there to show my grandchildren and great grands how to be great human beings. These are my fears of the future because so much time has been lost, and it seems this new thought of being a working person has taken the place of being a family unit People don’t understand how important family is and what family brings you that kind of stability. Love care, unconditional love, especially when it’s your own child so this is my goal is for the future because no matter what happens in my life I know in my heart, that I will always have the love of my brothers and sisters, my nieces and nephews, because at the end of the day, we literally grew up together and I wouldn’t ever abandon them for any reason or my children no matter what they do, even if they’re hardhead as hell I still with it because I was taught better. Thank God for a mother, who prayed and still does.

Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.
When I was younger, I prayed about everything, and I always knew what to do which way to go what was right and if the choice I was getting ready to make was going to add to my life or subtract from it and I would always follow my first mind And that choice always turned out to be the right one no matter if it was something as simple as driving down the street and turning right instead of left doing that always got me to the right point at the right time in the right journey. When I started hearing, my first mind tell me you know this isn’t what you should do and instead of shutting it down immediately starting to question that and justify the choice that I was making instead of shutting it down everything after that point started going the wrong way and every choice after that did not go right until I apologized for not listening to that first choice and cut everything down that did not coincide with what happened that I did not listen to after that choice. It was so distinct that I knew down to a T when things were turned around and the point when they were turned around, so now I know that that statement is so true you do better (you will do better when you knew better) and I haven’t went back to the former since that point and things have slowed in the right direction since then this is why I have always believed prayer changes things.

What are your favorite types of foods?
I like soul food, because I like the way we put an immense amount of flavor and the way we cook our food as Black people from around the world. I enjoy Hispanic tradition of food. Whether is Americanized or farming, Mexican countries because it has different flavors and it is Different in the way they put their ingredients with it their history and their family secrets in it. I love Thai food because of the way they put fruit to enhance the flavor in their food to make it taste flavorful and have a spice element with a sweetness to it also And I love Italian food because of the authenticity in it with the way they do their noodles, their spaghetti‘s, and most of their pastas whether it’s from scratch or processed it always has a genuine flavor that you can’t only say it came from an Italian restaurant or an Italian country There are several foods that I like, but these are by far my favorites.

What are you doing this evening?
I have been on a virtual roller coaster because the meta-verse is so new to me and it’s so awesome that I find myself immersed in so many different aspects of it and so excited by all the things that I’m finding and seeing and being involved in that it is so much fun That the New World and sceneries in places that I am going to I can’t seem to get enough of it. It is mine blowing so when I am done with my chores for the day and my writing, and my immense decision, making about life and all that is going on I go into a whole New World to see and meet new people and explore what it is that is out there that I didn’t know about and I am really enjoying it so far. I can travel I can vacation I can earn, and I can meet and greet all wow in the comfort of my own home. I absolutely enjoy every aspect of it. It is a world in itself. Not to mention, I can cook and learn new cultures and languages and ways to work. It is amazing. Plus the like-minded people. I am having a blast. Still looking for my friends though.
