Painting a Picture Life UmBiBlical Cord!!! (Not umbilical)

Hi EveryOne!!!

How are you? I am Great,! Blessed,! and Highly Favored! I will continue to believe you are too! Thank you for joining with me again and today I am going to write for you a Poem from one of my Collective Works.  I hope you will like it. Oh, by the way  I am learning more about Blogging. I will tell you more as I go on. I am still trying to pin-point what the (500) that I spoke about to you earlier, meant or mean. Now, I will Center my attention on this writing. I Meditated on what to write and I know it is this Poem.

LIFE UMBIBLICAL CORD

Did someone say

When we are born,That we began to 

breathe on our own!

When the umbiblical cord has been cut from our mother's breath,

or is the 

Visible thing we see a continuation of Life's Umbiblical Cord,

where God breath did start from the moment of 

inception, and then, would,

 we not see A Clear Picture of Life?

If we just believed,

Our Mother's womb was just God's Invisible Highway

to enter this Universe:

Would we become as a grain of sand? or Powerful as the Eagle?

which bares the symbology of GREATNESS?

Would we perish so easily at Life's Upsets?

Would we see Every man/woman/child

as an extension of Self?

Do then, connect yourself back in Consciousness,

to God's Umbiblical Cord, See  how

Easy it is to Believe that all

Humans, Animals, Insects, Plants, Every Living Thing Is Life!

Has Life Been all good

All Truth? Yes, I Believe So.

Is this what is meant by,

WE ARE ALL ONE BIG CHAIN

                                                                            OF LIFE?

    Thank you for joining with me, Please join again, and maybe eventually Spirit will give me what I can share with you exactly to your liking.:))) Don't forget to Laugh at yourself and with your little ones. 

With Much Love,(TYG)

(Part 3) Painting a Picture With E M O T I O N S plus!!!

Hi EveryOne!!!

Good morning, How are you? Thank you for joining with me again today. This is such a Blessing to awake, give Thanks and be eternally Grateful for this opportunity to share with those of you who take the time to glance at my Blog. You know something, I think I am suppose to say to you, that even though I write, I informed from the very beginning that I am not a Scholar, but, instead I am writing my Picture with My Words. Sometime you will see grammatical errors and  errors in my punctuations but you already know I am a Senior, this is not to make excuses but gently to say these are my thoughts I want to say. I place capital letters where I want to place emphasis to express words. I told you, that my daughter told me not to use so many underlines, because now it could mean directing a person to a LINK, and just think that is where I was having so much Fun.(Go, Figure) Be it far from me to be accused of being Politically or Grammatically correct. I do believe that everything I need to know is Revealed to Me and I can Do all things through Christ who Strengtheneth me.(Philippians:4:13). Sometimes even spellcheck has a problem defining the spelling of words. I smiled to myself and I thought l, oh well, even with all the new technology Foolish things can still confound the Wise.:))) My verses are almost always Biblically correct. (Go, Figure)

I am going to now get back to EMOTIONS I wanted you to find a little humor before I started with my thoughts on the family of EMOTIONS. Do you know that everything is determined I believe on some kind of feelings. It is regarded as a Negative or a Positive state of mind, and regardless to the Mind, or to whom it belong, one day when you arise your EMOTIONS will not rise with you. it will say Arm emotions I do not want to rise today. Arm will check in with Leg emotions and say "I do not want to rise today either" after they confer with each other they decide to ask Feet emotions "do you intend to rise today"? Feet emotions will reply "I do not think so",but I am going to ask Eye emotions, "Äre they going to open today" Eye emotions.state "yes, I am"but quickly add I think I heard that Back emotions said "that it doesn't think that it is going to rise today" Back emotions say" I know for a fact that Heart emotion is going to rise but will shut down later on today!" Every part of the body go through this Every day I am now waiting to see has any other part contacted (Mind emotion), here it comes, after all of the body parts have made their agreements whether or not they will knock the human off from it routine they all finally ask the Mind Emotions "What are its intentions for Tonnie today?" Mine will say "Well, I think she has become a little to Positive in her thinking and she will tell each body part that IT HAS NO POWER TO HURT HER, AND THAT SHE WILL REJECT US IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST! but don't worry, (she is not as confident in the area of Finances we will get her later, because you all know we will find a way to reach every one that does not know that  Emotions have not gender nor age preference) "Just wait." I think all of us will have a need to go a physician, dentist, or some other professional, but for the things that are guided by mind, often bring on strokes or something else devastating.we must began to believe in what not to use a crutch in our lives or our children lives. Have you ever asked you little one "How are you feeling today" and he/she will reply' I have a stomach ache or head ache or any other ache" and all the while you are so concerned, you are rushing out the door to get to work on time. You will say sometimes, "We,ll just stay in bed I will check on you later." Come to find out later that the tiny tot  is being bullied at school and just do not want to tell mom or dad.

In the meantime, Tonnie is trying to share her secret with the few people that will listen. It is written

that To the weak became I  as weak

that I might gain the weak: I am 

made all things to all men that I might in  all wise gain some:(Cor.9:22) 

  What does this have to do with EMOTIONS? Just this that the EMOTIONal family control our every thought and action and I honestly believe from Inception to our Home going. It is busy performing its duty in us and through us.Be it through the form of depression. hate, dislike for ourselves or our fellow man. judgmental of ourselves or our fellow man, envy, jealousy strife, lack and other illness that come in many forms out in the physical parts of our body that part that is unseen by the naked eye or microscopically, These children of the EMOTIONal family causes many things to happen for

the lack of knowing to say. I just reject you in the name of Jesus Christ, and if  our doctors can tell what is mentally affecting us then the medical ailments would be easier to diagnose.

It is so much to say about EMOTIONS. I am going to write more tomorrow. Please bear with me and Thank you for all the LOVE that you show by reading my our BLOGS. (smile)

With Much Love(TYG)

Shepherd we shall not want...See my Wordle...

Painting a Picture With E M O T I O N S and its S I B L I N G S !

Hi EveryOne!!!

How Are  you? Thank you for joining with me again! I did say I would write about EMOTIONS.
Well, this morning I am going to ask you to read with me as I write.  Now, you may want to get your tea, coffee, milk, water, or not, I want you to feel at ease. While you read with me REMEMBER I am a Senior who Paint her Pictures With Words, that is of course, My Wisdom. I know someone is reading with me and I appreciate you. Initially, I just thought I would write to myself as if in a crowded room with other people (but in my home instead) that are doing the same thing, (Or  JUST GETTING OUT OF SOMEONE's WAY):))) "(as I fore stated) now, I am beginning to think maybe Spirit is reaching me with my Mental Cleansing and my friends as well. 

REMEMBER, NOW I BELIEVE WE TRY TO TEACH THE LESSONS THAT WE NEED MOST TO LEARN OURSELVES, then, we are given LIFE(s) Test to see how well we have learned it. (we all know these are my opinions) but if it will help anyone person then my work is being done.

Do you see how long it is taking me to get started on my topic, well, I am procrastinating because I must need a little more time to convince myself this is what I am suppose to learn. Here goes: I always think of Emotions and how they
C O N T R O L  every fiber of our being, yet it is not described as a part of our Anatomy I wonder why not?. I have thought for a long time that if we did not have the EMOTION family, would there be any CHAOS in the world?
The thoughts, our children have, the things that they are confronted with, the harsh words that are spoken to them sometimes by us sometimes by others as well. (The other day I was walking down the street and just then a school bus stopped and a young student got off the bus, as he was going to his home a student on the bus yelled out to him and said "With your"BOW-LEGGED" self). Sure enough the student did not even respond but he looked at me and we both smiled. I smiled because I did not want him to feel as I used to feel when someone would mention my "BIG-NOSE". You see what I mean ? Yes, this is my Lesson I am trying to share. I understand that EMOTIONS can AND are powerful. Justified or not the impact of an EMOTION is Life-Long.I am a Senior and just look I still remember vividly. I thought to myself that is something that has happened to me through-out my life. At first I use to cry and then once my mom told me "Well now, you just go get you another one if you don't like it." She said "How do you think God would feel if he knew you did not like your nose?" although he already knew. I used to think "What was he thinking when he gave it to me" since she always said "God's purpose was not for me to understand". Well, gradually, I began to think how would I breathe if I did  not have my nose? Did that cure my Nose Pain? NO, It did NOT. But I Had to grow into liking my nose.and other parts of my body. as well. You see, that was the beginning of my Emotional Pain Disguised as an Inferiority Complex.  

Let us look at something together for a moment. have you ever noticed that EMOTIONS consists of an entire family.  It actually has Siblings.(One of two persons having the same family) I understand it said family, but a Family( can be a group of things) From the American Heritage Dictionary. See the following meaning:  

1. Emotions: Any strong feeling such as joy,sorry, reverance, hate or Love. rising subjectively rather than through a conscious mental efort.
2. Emotional: Of or pretaining to Emotions
3. Emotionalism: An inclination to encourage or yeild to Emotions.
4. Emotionalist: One whose conduct thought or rhetoric is goverend by Emotions rather than reason.   

    Now do you do you see why I believe that they are Siblings. Don't judge that as silly (well, you can) if you want because then I will say you have an even deeper meaning than the Bible which has no definition for Emotions, but instead uses over 200 times one of the children of the Emotional family called Anger. But the children have many other names such scorn, hate, depressions, temper, unforgiveness, rebellions, etc. then lastly LOVE.  I wonder what would happen if we just
E L I M I N A T ED  all the other facets but kept LOVE. If we teach LOVE whether we were taught LOVE or not, but can we Teach it, If we have not learned it?. Have we learned it but do not know we know it? You See, when some one hurt your feelings can that be an Emotion in Action or is it the way you Perceive it? Then, why do we perceive things the way we do?

I just a had a coughing session, I honestly believe it is not what we Digest but rather what we Inject
that bothers us the most. I think I am going to Continue tomorrow.with EMOTIONS.                                                                                      
 2 Timothy 6:7 states that For we brought nothing into this world and it is certain we can carry nothing out:

I really believe, except, EMOTIONS. Join me tomorrow. Lets take the EMOTIONS  Journey together. If you do not have any Lessons to think about please share mine with me!!!    
BE BLESSED, BE WHOLE, and by YOUR DIVINE RIGHT YOU CAN AND SHOULD REJECT ANYTHING THAT IS NOT FOR YOUR HIGHEST GOOD.
With Much LOVE, (TYG)

Painting A Picture Of A Child's Anecdotes!!!

Hi EveryOne!!!

How are you? Thank you again for joining me. Guess what? I did not want you to get to bored. I took a break but tonight I hope I will give you some laughter. I laugh a lot and I don't want you to miss that while you are reading what I am writing. Oh, did I tell you I could not find my previous BLOGS the other night and for a minute I became a little frantic. I then realized I am enjoying this.

Needless, to say I looked in my Concordance to see just what was written about laughter and what I found were three verses:But I am sure there are more, However, I am only going to use these below.

1. Ecclesiastes( 3:4) A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance: 

Luke (6:21) Blessed are you that weep now for you shall laugh.  

 Now, I stated these verses first  because I believe it takes more muscles to frown than to laugh and I believe if we find more things to laugh about then we will enjoy our lives much more.  We will not care if some one laugh at us take jabs at us or for any other reason. I am sure you have heard the expression " GRIN AND BEAR IT!" I remind myself of that just after I forget to remind myself:)))  Really, just read below and tell me if something I have written did not make you laugh and forget for an instance the harsh words someone might have spoken to you earlier that day,or that you forgot to roll up your windows and it is pouring down rain.(smile) just anything and for any reason.

When my daughter was small, she would say things to me that I would sit and stare at her.  I am sure for all parents/grandparents this has happened to.you too. I Treasured these moments and when you think about it I am sure you did or still do as well. I wrote some of them down and now I am going to share them with you. I kept these just as I have her reports cards,her drawings, her writings and one outfit.  I also kept items from my nieces as well.

Once When my daughter was in the bathroom I thought I was helping her so,

I quickly flushed the commode when I thought she had finished she looked up to 

and said mommie ," give me that back" ,I asked her why? she said" because I am not finished with it yet".         ( I just smiled and said to myself, my baby)

This is what I wrote, Disco is the thing now, and one day while it was thundering and

lightening, my daughter asked me was " God disco-ing?"I uttered "huh"  I really did not know what to say since she had learned about God while attending Church with my mother and had she had seen my mother shouting in Church to Spiritual Music.

(I just smiled and said to myself, my baby) 

I wrote, my baby at 3 years old started to school today I asked her upon returning home

"How was her day?" she said it was " okay and that a tear wanted to cry, but she did not let it". I just hugged her and then I cried.(Go,Figure)

Today My daughter simply refused to get up. I called her 4 times and then I just picked her up and carried her to the bathroom, She sat on the commode and went back to sleep. I woke her up and washed her face and carried her in and sat her at the table, and she went to sleep again. I told her to wake up and eat her cereal. She looked at me and said mommie" you know why I keep on going to sleep" " I told her no", she said" well the sleep just won' t leave my eyes along and I' m trying to get rid of it for my eyes."  

(Now, you know I was in a slight trance. but I just smiled and said, my baby)  

Today we were making her numbers. she pretended that she had made the number 6 and it wasn' t on the paper. I asked her " what happened to the 6?" , she said "Oh, it is still up in my pencil." 

I laughed and I said to myself I guess that was a way of looking at it, if it had come down (or if she  wrote it) it would have been on the paper. 

I had fish today for lunch and I was carrying some back home with me.when I picked her up from school the odor was in the car.  She asked me " why did fish stink?". I really did not know so I told her" maybe it was because it always lived in water". she told me"when I stink, you tell me to get in water. Why?"

You know, it came to me she was right but I said to myself who knew but God that she would have ever thought like that? Oh well, that' s my baby. It made sense what she said and because I was an older parent I did not want to tell her things that were not correct.and If I did not know the answer to things  she would ask I would look it up.  I was so afraid of not being a good parent that My niece kept her for me and literally had to tell me come get her because I was her parent.  

I would not have missed this opportunity for any thing the WORLD has to offer, it is truly a BLESSING to Me.  

Thank you for joining me and we will talk about Emotions tomorrow. Now that you are reading with me bring your tea, milk, water or coffee. OOPS!!! Did I speak toooooo sooooon? Laugh Out Loud!

BE BLESSED! BE WHOLE! AND DO NOT FORGET TO LAUGH, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING TO LAUGH about EVEN IF SOMETIMES IT IS WHAT WE HAVE SAID OR DONE. OURSELVES. Try it! I HOPE YOU LAUGHED A LITTLE.

With Much LOVE (TYG)

PAINTING A PICTURE OF PAIN CAUSE & EFFECT!!!

Hi EveryOne!!!

How are you? Thank you for joining with me. Yesterday 's BLOG has a Circle and a  Dot.
It is my Wisdom's way of saying to you. That the Universe is Vast. But, I Matter! You Matter!

HOW AWESOME IS THAT? EVEN WHEN WE THINK THAT WE

DO NOT! WE ARE STILL AN IMPORTANT DOT.

Now here is one of my Collective Works on Pain:

PAIN is defined as the Sensation one feels when hurt mentally or physically A sensation of hurting or strong discomfort in some part of the body, caused by an injury. disease or functional disorder and transmitted through the nervous system: 

Pain is not an answer to a quick Hello or a long Goodbye. When we are born there are Labor Pains:

Pains that cannot be later explained or relived, except only in our Memory. 

Can the Pain of losing a love one compare?

to the Pain of being abused by a love one,

who dare?

To test you. your love, your care.

When a Pain hurt so bad you can't  think

talk or speak?

You just want to lie in a Somber state of

stillness and sleep,

Where no one can reach you to Praise, Complain

or judge you,

Does the Pain of Labor extend to every one on every Horizon?

Does a Labor Pain remind you/ I of every Pain that we don't want to ever feel 

again in Life, NO TIME NO PLACE?

When we endure our Labor Pains we expect to, bring a Life into the world, to love, to nurture,

to protect and teach.

When our hearts becomes broken from yet another hurt by our lovers,our children, our family, our friends, is it just a little more pain that was started at our BIRTHS and erodes our nervous systems? 

Will we say, STOP THE WORLD, I WANT TO GET OFF?

WILL WE SIT? PONDER? REFLECT? CRY? PRAY? or  will we offer out this COMMAND?

I WILL NOT, (ALTHOUGH I HAVE) GIVE YOU THE POWER TO HURT ME! ANYMORE!  

Although, I've wept, I've slept, I've ignored, I've accepted I even Lied about your Presence and your Sensation. But the only Pain not caused by a wound is the Pain that does not need be inflicted, suffered. or accepted. How easy it is for a man to inflict a Mental or Physical Pain who knows not what a Labor Pain is. If a man could Bare a Child, would they impose such careless Pain on woman, who know what a labor Pain is? Who bring Joy into the world through Pain? To love nurture, and protect or is the Pain of hurt just a Functional Disorder? 

Be not distress after you are Borned, Growing-up or Grown- up, you are in no way compelled to be in Distress.We cannot return to the womb, which we came from, Even with Pain. But, we can seek a HIGHER PEACE from all other Pain and always do unto others as we would have them do unto us. This will Negate all other careless Pain that can, is or will be inflicted by others TO US and ON US. Tell yourself each day there is nor will there be any more brooding over Pain. But instead. insist on Joy,Peace, and Happiness which you can and should have until death causes us to take a Deep Sleep, A Peaceful Sleep of Eternal Rest Ýou Can, WE Can do it. One Breath at a time as when we were born.

A WOMAN SHE IS IN TRAVAIL HATH SORROW BECAUSE HER HOUR IS COME BUT AS SOON AS SHE DELIVERED THE CHILD, SHE REMEMBERETH NO MORE THE ANGUISH, FOR JOY THAT A MAN/WOMAN  IS BORN INTO THE WORLD. (John 16:21)    

 With Much LOVE (TYG)

Painting A Con't for Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow!!!

 Hi EveryOne!!!


How Are You? I am going to continue with the climax to this Article. I am Praying that you will get to see it. I am going to start where I left off. Except, have you checked out the LINK(s) yet? If so Thank you, If not please do so and give a Thumb's up for "LIKE". That is only if you "LIKE It".

Now to continue with my writing: 

In the Founder's efforts to personify her Program, She continued to teach IBA, Web Design, Animated Graphics (5 yrs) later Keyboarding (3 yrs) in retribution.  Maybe with or Without full acceptance by her School district, because of her "DESIRE TO SPREAD LOVE" SHE VERY, rarely would look at Situations as most People would.  She Ignored Incident upon Incident that were rendered to her. I do not want you to think I am trying to make a (mortar) "SPIRIT's WORD" out of her, but AT LAST she began to Realize That she could not take any more Strife, because the ATTITUDES had changed to a Threatening Status. She filed grievance after grievance to no avail on a particular issue. This started in February 2013.  Instead of a resolution she was admonished in a letter of not being able to communicate with her Peers but with her Students instead. Out of concern for she and her family, she thought it best to take a Year's Leave of Absence. Starting August 2013 One of the reasons permitted by the School Board' guidelines to acquire a "leave of absence" was to further One's education.  Since she had already been accepted in a doctoral program in April 2013, she chose to ask for this leave WITHOUT PAY of course. The leave was granted. It had been requested by the School Board in their permission letter for the (leave ) that on February 3rd 2014, she would submit her Letter of Intent for years (2014-2015).  She resigned instead On February 3, 2014 She did not feel that her case had been resolved. Instead it had been skimmed and Glossed over by the Administration who had written that she was held in Good Standing. Yet for 6 months she tried to get Unemployment Benefits for she her family. She finally Won her Case ''When A Decision was Rendered by the Unemployment Board" in her Favor for a" Hostile Working Environment and Discrimination " but, can you believe that the School Board Repealed that Decision and Won yet another Victory? I WAS LIVID!!! but she said, "SPREAD LOVE" and "it isn't over til it is over".  I barely Uttered aloud (wh..what?) 

I have stated we are to (PRAY WITHOUT CEASING, and IN ALL THY WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM AND HE WILL DIRECT THY PATHS)  Well, I will continue to do this, without knowing this I do not know how She has Remained Sane... Yet I do know!

Do not think for one moment she did not try to get assistance? Because, she did to no avail.  In case you are Thinking about this remember during Job's time even his Friends said He must have done something wrong. Until they were chastened by God Himself. I am not Trying to Equate The Founder with "Job", but I am thinking to myself, Maybe--just Maybe this is being done for another reason other than what my Visible Eyes can See. I am reminded about the Movie "FlightPlan" with Jodie Foster. Have you seen IT? It is an old movie and today this situation reminds me of it. (No one believed she had brought her little daughter on the Plane, except one little girl because the kidnappers had convinced everyone else that Jodie Foster was delusional.)  I am also reminded that not too far from here (4 miles to be exact) when mockery was made of African Americans Students by other non African American Students) on Dr. King's Birthday it was written about and just as quickly dismissed from the News...  I am beginning to wonder or should I just continue to "SPREAD LOVE?" It seems as if regardless to how things "seem to change they really remain the same!!!

Thank You for reading what has been written by the Reporter, Published by the Newspaper, and the voicing of this Senior's Facts. I did not get permission to write this but they are facts with supported documentation and therefore I think I can speak on it.

BE BLESSED, BE WHOLE, and BE YOUR OWN THINKER:
Much LOVE!
