It's "Weleful Wednesday"... YES YES YES... Our unique moment to unwind, rewind, and incline... unwind from all the sticky gooey challenges, obstacles, and barriers that may have come our way over the past week, rewind on all the moments that brought us joy, that brought us clarity (even if it hurt), and that brought us personal growth, and remain inclined to spread genuine love, to share a kind word, and stay in high pursuit of our next level of #GREATERNESS. All this ... right here in Faith's Garden of INspiration. You know one of my all-time favorite classic comedy movies is “Brewster’s Millions” starring Richard Pryor. In this movie the character, Monte, is presented with an opportunity to acquire $300 million only if he can spend $30 million in 30 days. There were two special clauses in this opportunity: 1) He could not own anything he purchased nor could anything have any value and 2) He could not tell anyone what and why he was doing it. Of course, there was an additional deal – Monte could choose to take $1 million right there and then and walk away. He stood there for a brief moment and contemplated on the deal… He not only shocked himself but he shocked those in the room with him when he said, “I’ll Go For It.” He realized that just the opportunity to even try and spend that amount of money would be more than taking the $1 million dollars and walking away. Below is short video I did on Monday for my FB series “31 Seconds for 31 Days” with TSWFAITH. I just wanna encourage someone today that no matter how strange, no matter how odd, no matter who doesn’t understand, no matter how crazy it may seem, no matter how challenging it can be–IF God has given you a vision – make it plain and run with it. There are so many times on this journey called life that we come to these crossroads where we have to step out on faith to achieve our destiny, our mission, and our purpose. And not everyone will understand what we’re trying to do. Many will think you have gone plum crazy and flew over the cuckoo’s nest. JUST GO FOR IT!!! As long as you’ve prayed, as long as you believe, you know, and you trust the process that’s all that matters. YES. We are to seek wise counsel – yet that counsel should always line up with what God has already placed in our hearts and in our spirits. Enjoy this brief clip… And by all means let us know in the comment section below what you’re “Gonna Just Go For”. Until next time...Stay Forever Blessed and Highly Favored And if you haven’t already done so be sure to join me on: FB and IG @tswfaith Twitter @tswfaith5 From your very own #1 INspirational Quotes Author TSWFAITH

My My My… Here we are in our favorite meeting place – Faith’s Garden of INspiration for our “Weleful Wednesday” boost. Our refill of nutrients and supplements that fortify our destiny, our mission, and our purpose. I Thank You for your presence and your support.
Earlier this week I did a Facebook video titled “Give It the Extra Pump” for my mini-series “31 Seconds for 31 Days” with TSWFAITH. For whatever reason this message will not stop tugging at me so our blog today will be a written extension of the topic. We are all familiar with placing orders of our favorite frapps and capps and requesting the “extra pumps” of this or that. Well, what I’d like to propose to us all is… “What Extra Pumps” are we giving to this journey called life? If we can sip, swallow, guzzle down our drinks with these “extra pumps” I know we are capable of sharing a few “extra pumps” in the atmosphere. Let’s take 31 seconds to close our eyes and ponder on that… Seriously… close your eyes and meditate on the “extra pumps” of life you’ll be distributing out in the open from this moment on. Ok… need a little kick start… I’m sure many of you will be exhibiting “extra pumps” of smiles, kindness, love, compassion, empathy, sympathy, creativity, respect, hugs, “hellos”, “how are you’s”, sharing, caring, encouraging, inspiring, motivating, helping, listening,…… and others of you will be displaying “extra pumps” of fairness, friendship, helpfulness, laughter, joy, peace, humility, sound advice, guidance, faith, prayers, wisdom, understanding… and the rest of you will be performing “extra pumps” of patience, submissiveness to God, courage, determination, perseverance, excellence, integrity… Right, now you get it – the “extra pumps” of life. I know you have a few of your own “extra pumps” – Just be sure to share in the comment section below. Until next time...Stay Forever Blessed and Highly Favored From your very own #1 INspirational Quotes Author TSWFAITH YES… Go tell a friend to join us here in Faith's Garden of INspiration and on: FB and IG @tswfaith Twitter @tswfaith5 Ok… Listen it was just August 1, two weeks ago.

Our place to refresh, refuel, release, rebirth, and recreate. You gotta love these simple yet powerful nutrients of wisdom, insight, and motivation.
This week I am sharing with you yet another piece of writing I did over 15 years ago. Of course I did a few edits, so enjoy!!! This piece is all about fathers. Whoever your father is-your father, your uncle, your guardian, etc., and of course we won’t forget about our Spiritual Father – Jesus. ***************************************************************************** This message is only for a Special Father… A father that provides more than the basics of life A father that loves A father that believes in your future because he heavily invests in your present A father that gives his heart and yet teaches you how to guard your heart A father that is devoted and committed A father that works at his best because he gives his best and won’t settle for less A father that protects by any means necessary A father that is the positive fuel in setting guidance and correction A father that is a father-friend… way better than any homie that comforts that listens to understand and provide vital feedback A father that holds the ship steady even in the rockiest of storms swarm across the seas of life A father that holds a hand and never slacks that wipes away tears and shares joy and laughter that problem-solves and communicates that gives attention to any situation that drives the forces of pure determination A Special Father is just this type of Father and so much more ***************************************************************************** Tell us a little bit about a Special Father you know in the comment section below :0) Until next time...Stay Forever Blessed and Highly Favored From your very own #1 INspirational Quotes Author TSWFAITH YES… Go tell a friend to join us here in Faith's Garden of INspiration and on: FB and IG @tswfaith Twitter @tswfaith5 Here we are… In Faith’s Garden of INspiration for our "Weleful Wednesday" boost.

Today I am sharing another piece I wrote several years ago and yes, I did do a few add-ons. ENJOY… ********************************************************************************* I often wonder about those individuals who act on every opportunity that’s for the benefit of others I often wonder about those individuals who sail across the seas of life as if no stormy waves have ever come their way I often wonder about those individuals who work so effortlessly on long-term assignments and lifetime projects without a break or the much deserved respect and gentle recognition they've truly earned I often wonder about the mind, body, soul, and spirit of those individuals who gracefully spread their wings and carry the wounded when they’ve fallen on the wayside or deep in the trenches I often wonder about those individuals who smile with great joy and pure beauty even when their hearts have been broken… torn apart by the sharp blades of hatred, ignorance, anger, injustice, oppression, rage, and even self-destruction I often wonder about those individuals who simply MAKE the BEST even out of the most devastating situations I often wonder about those individuals who climb the highest of mountains on their bare feet… no water… no shade… continuously climbing to push and pull others along to the next level of #GREATERNESS I often wonder about those individuals who forget to step back and observe, appreciate, and pray for all the individuals I’ve described above I often pray that one day those individuals who I frequently wonder about will be taken care of – showered with appreciation, honored in very subtle ways, spoiled rotten with love and kisses, overwhelmed by tons of genuine “thank yous”, and forever preserved with the gracious love of God and our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ You see I believe that those individuals I often wonder about – people just like you – will forever shine through the deepest darkest grayest of clouds on the stormy days that are bound to come their way That’s what I wonder and what I believe… Now, here’s what I know… I know that individuals like you are beyond unique and you are all one-of-a-kind bright stars that will forever twinkle in the darkest of winter skies I know that individuals like you have a distinct fragrance of genuine dedication, a polished worth and supernatural value for this journey called life, and a true passion for the joy of others I often wonder… How about you? ********************************************************************************* Now, I ask you – What do you wonder about?

It’s our bestest day of the week – Weleful Wednesday!!! And, that’s right, it’s August 1, 2018. This is so absolutely splendiferous and frabjous. Listen… If for whatever reason you have not yet spoken your victory, spoken your destiny, spoken your mission, spoken your vision, spoken your peace, spoken your joy into existence – NOW is the time to do it!!!
Today I’d like share a piece that I wrote back in 1997 titled “Colors”. It’s short yet sweet and of course I’ve added a few more lines to this 2018 version. What is red? Sweet delicious soft chewy candies, long stem fresh cut roses, and how about big red balls lying in the grass after the children have played in the yard? And let’s not forget the blood that runs through our veins once it hits the air and YES, the blood that Jesus shed on the cross!!! What is blue? The beautiful waters along the coast, bubble gum ice cream topped with whip cream, our patched up 501 Levi jeans from high school, the sky in which we write our dreams and keep our hope alive, and a classic 1954 Chevy pick-up truck. What is yellow? Springtime daises growing by the hundreds in the field, little sour lemons picked right from the tree in the midst of the early morning dew, and school buses in different shapes and sizes along the highway at 6am full of brilliant creative children eager to learn. What is purple? The juicy cold scrumptious grapes in the crystal glass bowl, the sunset across the pacific on a warm summer night, and the color that symbolizes our ambition, wisdom, and wealth. What is green? The plants all through the house from the living room to the den to the hallway, the Popsicles given out at lunch as a nice cool treat, the nutritious spinach we mix up in almost any meal, and the color of our traffic light as we pursue our next level of #GREATERNESS. What is brown? The soil in which we grow our fruits and veggies, the guitar that brings such a cool country melody, our soft yet tough silky multi-colored shades of skin, our children graduating top of their class from Ivy League and HBC Universities across the country, and the prestigious medals we have won for our countless contributions to this ever changing productive world. What is black? The ink in the pen in which we sign our billion dollar contracts, the courage and the strength of our ancestors who paved the way, the beautiful sparkling sky at night, Egyptian cotton sheets, and the keys on the keyboard in which we create our stories for the world to read. What is pink? What is orange? What is gold? Colors All Around Us… Memorable Vibrant and Powerful – M.V.P So, I ask you – what colors are you thinking of and what do they represent?
