The idea of turning thirty never bothered me before, but this morning as I lay in bed, it was all that I could think of. Was I trying to hold on two my twenties with a firm grip as it slips away? I know that thirty is not old, but there is something about thirty that says maturity, growth, AND YOUR NOT IN YOUR TWIENTIES. Time sure does fly by. Sometimes in life we just have to live for the day and even the moment, our lives are so special. With that being said I had to change my thought process really quick. (Sometimes we have to check our self’s) The devil likes to play mind games with you if you let him. So I had to say to myself you are blessed and highly favored, you are married to a beautiful man who loves you, you have healthy beautiful children, and a roof over your head, God has blessed you to be a blessing to others. Know!! Yes you have had some obstacles stand in the way, but that’s okay because you’re still living and it’s never too late to achieve any of your dreams. I had to remind myself in life you have to please yourself and not do things because you want to look pleasing or successful in the eyes of someone else. Sometimes we think we have our lives planed out the way we think it should go. Truth is God is the only author in our lives, so sometimes our plan isn’t Gods plan and it doesn’t mean you’re less than. Everything you go through in life is for a reason. Things will happen for you -in do season..

That’s what I have to remind myself.

So!!!!  Thirty I hear you knocking and I’m ready to let you in………

 I keep hearing thirty is the new twenty J j/k

We hope you support our efforts and vision….Be blessed

She was cursing in front of him as if he is not a man of GOD. I find that very disrespectful beyond measure. “Monique funny is one thing, and disrespectful is another. Shame on you for your lack of respect”. Then it got worse she wanted him to repeat what she said, by then I had-had enough and turned the channel I didn’t even get to see him preform because I was in shock, due to her abrupt behavior. The Media never surprises me anymore, it just shows me that it’s getting much worse as time goes on. Wake up people! ( be careful what you do, mocking God’s anointed)

What do you all think of Mr. Sapp not saying anything??? 

Do you think Monique was out of line???

 Come on Christians make some noise..

 However, this should be a wake up call for many people out there. Stop letting looks defined everything about a person. What happened to getting to know an individual before your taking her panties off. Everyone has been young and naive once upon a time. Hey!! I’m guilty!  But, why are some of you grown men/women still making these irrational and immature decisions. I saw a friend of mine inquire about a woman on face-book that he knows nothing about, granted there is nothing wrong with that. However, he wanted to hook up with her and not knowing she is a prostitute. Would she tell him this? NO!!! would her friends???? No!!! You cant just jump on someone because you think their cute!!! We have to look past the physical ” you better get to know their mental”

This inquiry was not through me, I thought I would make that clear.

We all have to change our mindsets become free of the materialistic and looks mentality. We are all just souls that live within. What kind of spirit/soul are you trying to be with? What is even more thought-provoking and disappointing is that some of the men that were leaving comments to this video said “man I would have hit it raw” What!!!!!! Did they not hear this correctly? Are they that naive and fixated over sex that they don’t care?? People wake up !! This is a cold world we are living in. Wise up and take responsibility for you actions. Stand for something and stop falling for anything. Sex sells and is promoted every where. Yes, Sex feels good and every one wants to have it. Sex is not and should not be everything, and it is definitely not worth dieing for. I urge you to think about who you are sleeping with take time and get to know a person. The best thing you can do is be abstinent wait until your married -seriously it will all be worth it.

Woman!!!! You see how easily some women just throw them selves at men?? Choose to be a woman of quality ” make him wait” if he loves you he will.

Men!!!!  Stop thinking your so tough, and can have every girl you want. You may, but what kind of girl do you have????

Think!!!!!

Have you thought about your New Years Resolution?

I love how they kept it so real and relatable for many African Americans. The movie shows how we usually do struggle and try so hard to take care of ourselves and others we forget about finding happiness for our self. I love how this movie had implemented a positive msg; without portraying someone who did not represent how most African Americans live. It was an excellent movie; it made me so proud to watch. I actually shed a tear or two. The movie had an array of different emotions it was upbeat and humorous and it gave you something to think about, it also gave hope to every little black girl who goes to see it. It was very insightful and inspirational. The kids loved it, and I think I loved it even more. If you have not seen this movie you should defiantly go check it out………

Why I wrote the book “Pretty for a black girl”

People keep asking me this question so here it is…….

I wrote this book because it is a topic that I am absolutely passionate about. I believe that we all pass judgments and assumptions off on one another based on color and (or) race. I may be consider a dark skin women to some of you and for some of you, you see me as light skin women. Everyone has their own standards to what these are. In my family my grandfather on my mother’s side is Indian and white, and my grandfather on my dad side is black and white. So, most of the women on both sides are fairly light skin; or look like white women. However, they are black. Being that I have said that I have been surrounded by all different types of people, and have heard stereotypes from both and several sides of the fence. I did not mention these details in my book.

What bothers me the most is when people act as if they truly care about this matter (subject)? They play their looks down as if they don’t care about how they look. Saying and putting on as if they actually mean what they say. When my husband first seen a picture of me he thought I was attractive. Only to have another black women say to him “Oh her, you know that she has never had long-long hair.” WHAT!!!-What does that have to do with anything? Why do you have to put someone else down in order to try to glorify yourself. Why does hair and the hue of skin have to validate people or at least they think it does. Now what makes me more upset is the fact that I said this young woman was African American. Not only was she African American but she was mixed somewhere down the line and she had beautiful hair. She clearly thought that her hair made her special or more attractive I suppose. See you may just look at this as if she was a straight hater. I look at it from another stand point, an enslaved mentality and unawareness. She suffers from what I call in my book the Acceptance of being accepted. This means that she thrives off of people telling her that she is better than others based off of these so called attributes. What struck this dialog is I wanted to connect briefly with my readers and supporters. I wanted you to know that I write about things that I believe in. I would never write about something that I have not lived or about what I truly believe in my heart. Too many people are hypocrites. I believe in writing what GOD has put on my heart to write. So, if you have not got your copy of “Pretty for a black girl” check it out and let’s change our mind sets.

 My quote “Let’s diminish ugly mindsets and replenish them with a new mind”

“I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. … Although I am a well-known person and have made my career as a professional athlete, I have been dismayed to realize the full extent of what tabloid scrutiny really means. For the last week my family and I have been hounded to expose intimate details of our personal lives. … Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn’t have to mean public confessions.”

Remember: All things done in the dark will come to the light

With Christmas approaching let’s not forget about the meaning of Christmas and try not to get caught up in the gifts. Sometime we stress ourselves out trying to find the perfect gift for someone. It’s not gift that matters its thought that counts, and if someone can’t appreciate that -then they don’t deserve it. The holiday season can be very depressing for some people who may not have anyone to share those days with or for some who may not have money to spend. Take that in to consideration when you’re acting ungrateful or materialistic. At the end of the day it was the day that Christ was born and let’s rejoices to that.

This year I am going too celebrated Christmas in Turkey with my husband. The kids and I will be flying back over so, pray for our safety please. I am not a fan of flying that far. However, I have to do what I have to do.

Remember this: Sometimes kids get excited about the smallest things so think outside the box. You don’t have to spend your last to please a child…..

Last week I had the pleasure of going to Sacramento with my first Lady of my church. We went to a women’s conference that was excellent. I love to see other women empowering other women to do GODS will. I know that is one of my goals in life, I am trying to reach women through my books. We were there for three days on the last day which was Friday we drove up to Fairfield to see our praise team sing back up for Marvin Sapp. Actually they did more than just sing back up they sang a few songs. They are becoming more and more popular watch out world I see a music contract in their near future. Not only did Marvin Sapp sing he preached his behind off, that man was deep. I enjoyed it!

Now over the last few weeks I had been working on a major Social Network that I have now decided to hold off for-for awhile, along with my husbands and I organization NuAgeChristians LLC. We are debating on how to make it all work at this point. We know what we want we just don’t know how supportive this community will be. Fresno is a strange place; people say that they are bored and that they wish it was something to do. So, then when you try to provide a service that allows them some activity they complain about the cost WHAT!!!

Truth is there are so many things that I want to accomplish. However, how much can I really do until we are not moving back and forth across the world? Well on the other hand I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me.

Today I have decided to just stop thinking for a minute slow down and give my mind a rest. Right about know I am missing my husband too. This is the first time we have been separated in 6yrs so every now and then I feel real down. He is doing what he has to do-to provided for his family. Some people hear the word basketball and think he is so lucky “and he is blessed” but at what expense and at what sacrifice. You don’t see the frustration the loneliness and the danger behind playing basketball overseas. That is the reason for my soon to be blog and book “wife of a baller”

So know that I have rambled on I will be writing more frequently.

Stay blessed all you people out there, and don’t forget to tell your friends about www.aishacurry.com
