The more I push forward. The more obstacles come my way but you know what. You have to KEEP ON PUSHING and MOVE ON UP.On May 9 my 31 year old younger brother just died. with no warning or anything. This was the first blow of the summer until my grandmother died on July 9. So I have been in NY most of the month still pushing and moving.since I have 2 children I have no choice but to keep on pushing and moving. It is hard but ya got ta do what ya got ta do.After all of the drama I still rise. God is so good. I am still here. My business is still rolling. I got many things that are brewing and I am still moving.I also have to take time out for myself.Yesterday I had a birthday party to take my daughter to. A million errands to run prior to 1:30pm, I decided I had to get my bushy eyebrows attended to. I sat down and decided to take the time out for a pedi also. Even thought I felt guilty at the time, everything worked out and I was able to just sit down for a moment and do something for myself.I wonder did my grandmother ever have the chance to do anything for herself. At 91 I recall she worked until 80 something. Can you imagine that???? I know socially life had to be hard back then. I wonder if she was able to do the things that she wanted to do in life. I know of a couple of things she wanted to do but could not. She did keep pushing and to me life is the greatest gift. God granted her a long one and I hope he will do the same for me.So I will keep on pushing and moving on up.Thanks for listening. I pray that August will bring me more joy and peace.Valerie
