It's been awhile since I've blogged. Over 3 months to be exact. The last time I blogged, I was hurting...missing my daugther. I guess I needed 3 months to fully heal . I required the healing and gentle touch of THE TRINITY: the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. Thank you GOD your love and comfort. Tonight, I am no longer in a hurting place...I am healing and I am praising!
Three (there's that Trinity again) amazing things have taken place since August 3 that I would like to share:
1) I met my idol...the woman I dedicate Tuesdays on this blog to....yep, NIKKI GIOVANNI. She is more than wonderful....more than inspiring... more than a woman should be. I had the opportunity to hear her speak and then snuck backstage to shake her hand...the hand that is connected to fingers that write masterpieces. I felt like a kid at Christmas who got the very present she had been praying for.
2) I self published my first collection of poetry entitled, "Sometimes, I wonder..." It is my heart and soul in black and white on 95 pages. And I placed it in the hands of Nikki G. Yep, I sure did!
3) To date, I have sold 25 copies of my book... and only 3 of those copies were sold to family members! One costumer purchased a copy on Saturday and came back Sunday to buy 2 more as Christmas gifts for her 2 sisters. That's 3 copies! Her words to me were, "I could not put your book down. Your poetry is real and it needs to be shared. " Indeed GOD is blessing me and making room for my gifts.
Tonight as I shut down my computer and take my spot beside my bed to kneel and pray, I am beyond thankful. HE is taking me higher and higher... closer to my dreams.
