Becoming a published author is less complicated than it used to be. However, before you can be a published author, you have to write something, and the most important thing is what you chose to write about. To be successful in writing, it is always best to write on a subject that you know. We all have at least one subject that we can relate to. Some people know how to make things; some people know how to fix things……
How important is ethnicity in adopting a child. I believe love is an emotion that begins in the heart, and it is manifested in the action of the person. Love has no color. I would like to say love doesn’t discriminate, but it does. However, it’s a beautiful thing when the heart is open to accept a person from another race into your life. It begins with love. Once love exists, caring and sharing comes easy. An adoptive parent will…..
Hi, I’m J. Elaine Cottrell, author of Breana’s Full Circle. I am a retired nurse, so I fill my days with writing. I am not a conventional writer; I’m a story teller. The rules in writing that I don’t know I break, and the rules that I know I bend. My objective is to get the stories out of my head unto the pages, so I could share them with my readers. Rules, regulations and political correctness will sometimes get…..
There have been times when we languish for the good old days, but we should be careful what we wish for. Some times the good old days were not so good in certain aspect of life. Not so long ago I heard on the news that a man was feeding on the face of a homeless man. Then I heard the current news of a young man walking out of a restaurant in anger, and he was found later bending…..
I wake up this morning with thankful acknowledgement that this new day came into existence by the hand of an almighty God. This is His day that He has made. He has plans for this day and all the people and all the things that are in it. This reminds me that everything is under His control, so I will not worry. All I ask for me today is a deeper understanding of His ways that I may walk without…..
So much is happening around us and around the world. We are bothered about the injustices that are happening abroad and we’re worried about what’s happening in our own back yard. Everybody is fighting for one thing or the other. There’s war among the classes. The Rich vs the Poor. The top 1% owning 40% of the wealth while the bottom maybe 30% is not even on the charts. The lower middle can barely make it, and the middle is…..
Good Friday morning everybody! Having some issues this morning, but I have chosen to believe that I wouldn’t know how to enjoy pleasure if I’ve never had pain. After the sunshine there’s got to be a little rain sometimes. The beauty of living by faith is not to be in denial when a problem presents itself; instead, you recognize the problem and deal with it. Trouble doesn’t last always; the sun will shine again after the rain is gone. Living…..
Hate is a learned behavior. As babes we came into the world innocent. Like clean canvas or a blank slate or fresh clay waiting to be molded. The outcome depends on the artist what the finished product will be. Innocence is lost according to the environment that a child is nurtured in. The problem is not between Black and white; it’s between love and hate. In many instances Blacks and Whites are in perfect harmony; they were taught how to love……
When a citizen from another country burns the United States’ flag it’s considered a disrespect to our country, and it gives cause to react in one way or the other. When a citizen of the United States burns the flag of the United States, what is it called, and how should we react? How can we be respected by others if we do not respect ourselves? Yes we can be angry; there’s a lot to be angry about. But at…..
