In order to succeed
you must do your very best
You got to have a want to
to turn your life around
Start looking at the stars
and stop looking at the ground
Look to the stars
which shine so long and bright
It will give hope for the future
in the mist of the night
Disappointments will come
but you… Continue

Yep, the power of "facts" on the internet. Ain't it grand? People take forwards as gospel. Do you all also believe that Barack Obama shouldn't be president because he's not an American citizen? It' says he's not on the internet!
I kinda wanted this…

You know what is sad in all this, the sentiment on this board is not about wanting to see justice, because frankly those on this board have shown they could care less about facts (not a single person here has seen the court documents of the case oth…
Because Sophia has made false claims! She said she won the case and that turned out to be a flat out lie! Why on earth would be you surprised she is now being scrutinized after misleading many?
you believe it because they say so? LOL! Name me ONE TIME where Sophia ever produced a court document about her case.
Well, that's what THEY are telling us, so we must BELIEVE it! We know this is the whole story, because THEY told us so, why would THEY lie? All of the information received on this case are from 100% accurate, objective and reliable sources, our very…
And you wonder why people view you guys as a fringe nutcase bunch? Sophia was going around purposely MISLEADING people into thinking she "won" the case. There are followers of this woman all over the net, fighting tooth and nail she ACTUALLY won the…
I guess none of you people have ever lost a court case! Do you realize that winning a court case has nothing to do with being wrong or right?

I look forward to reading the Women and Hope Magazine. My Mother's Day was very nice. My family treated me with Royalty and for that I was very greatful. Take care.
I had a wonderful Mother's Day. Although I am not a mother, I did talk to my mother who is more than 3000 miles away. I hope your Mother's Day was enjoyable as well.
I sincerely appreciate all of your kind words and the comments you have offered on "Your Weekly Dose of Inspiration." It is your kind words and comments that make you an inspiration.
By the way, I am just reading your comment referencing my earlier post; so, I will add your comments to my blog. Also, once I launch the Women & HOPE magazine, the artist section of the magazine will help artists gain greater exposure.
Make every day a great day!
