I am happy, it is cold outside right now and with a 30% chance of heavy snow and I am still happy. Why? Because I rolled off my last project and got on a new project up North. I get to travel every week, get paid per Diem's every day, sleep in a four star hotel and drive a rented SUV to and fro wherever I want with my work paying the bills. I am an hour away from NYC and likewise from Boston- Isn't life great. The only thing is that I have a sinking feeling that I did not pack very well for this cold and snowy weather.
I just pray that this project will be a god one and I would work to the best of my abilities to be a high performer.
Gotham Diaries:
Very good read. I finished it in about 3 days and it was hard to put down. The authors tell the behind the screen stories of the NY high and mighty. It never ceases to amaze me how the inner workings of the human mind can be so evil while presenting a pleasant outward appearance. Its a book about life(as they call it), Money, wealth, power, society and the different ways you can destroy people's lives.
Good book. I recommend it if you are looking for a light read.
New book: Neecey's Lullaby
I moved unto another book and I am currently reading Neecey's Lullaby by Chris Burks. I am 3/4 done. What can I say about this book? IT IS WONDERFUL, TEARY AND TOUCHES YOUR HEART AND BRINGS OUT FEELINGS YOU NEVER THOUGHT YOU HAD. I cried in the midst of fleeting happiness and smiled in the midst of courage and sibling strength in the midst of PURE EVIL. This book teaches how hard and easy it is to break the human spirit. Out of the midst of sexual, physical and mental abuse, the main character's spirit blooms strong and created a phenomenal BLACK woman. It is interesting because many blogs are focusing on all sorts of abuse but no one is talking about the strength to STAND, to reclaim your life and your image from the depths of hell on earth. So many men and women and walking injured because of the things in their past. This story tells the story of one that not only survived but turned her suffering into the freedom of others. Without her experiences, she would never have been able to protect the ones she loved from the predators of this world. READ THIS BOOK- I guarantee you will enjoy it. You can also drop a note to let me know what you think about the book.
So, just to leave you with something, here are things that I recite to myself when I'm not feeling like myself:
I am wonderfully and gloriously created
I am the daughter of the Most High
My voice beckons the ear of My Father
I shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord
He knew me before I was formed in my mothers womb.
He has not given me a spirit of fear but of Power, Love and a Sound Mind
He will not let my foot to be moved
He covers me with His blood and rebukes the devourer from even mentioning my name
He knows how many strands of hair covers my head
He knows the times and why I cry
He knows the times and why I smile
He calls me by my name
He breathes life into me and calls me blessed
He carries me when I can't walk
He loves me beyond comprehension
He died in my place and said "NaijaJinx LIVE"
I am a phenomenal woman because I have the greatest Advocate, Friend, Master, Lord, Lover, Prince, King, Knight, Judge, Warrior in my Corner.
Have a wonderful week
