Action gives power. Entire harmony pervades the universe of God. All the heavenly beings are in constant activity; and the Lord Jesus, in His life work, has given an example for every one.
Writing this book feels like a completely different activity from writing my comic strip because it's about real life. I feel like I'm using a part of my brain that's been dormant until now.

I have been privileged to have the opportunity to work with many of African American fraternal and social organizations that are active in my congressional district. They all do important work that makes a tangible difference to the quality of life i...
Like many women, I stay active juggling many aspects of a very full life! I'm a busy mom. I also love to travel, garden, cook and volunteer at my kids school.
It's the off-the-court spotlight in terms of having people look at you in terms of analyzing every little thing you do in your life, or having less privacy in your day-to-day activities, that's an area I need to get more accustomed to.
There is this idea that appealing to youth is the only way forward. But that is no longer the case. Youth is not everything. Now we have all the baby-boomers in their 60s, like me, who are actively engaged in life - we're not retiring, we're not just...
I would say that I have become more radical as I have gotten older. I started out very radical when I was young, like most people, but I became less actively politically engaged in the middle of my life.

No one is responsible for your own happiness. Neither could anyone or thing succeed in making you happy. This is because happiness can only be activated or deactivated through your repeated thoughts and beliefs.
Some things could come into in your life through luck, but happiness is undoubtedly not one of them. The activation of happiness in one's life is impossible without the presence consistent positive thoughts and beliefs in one's mind.

Happiness is solely a product of the mind, not of worldly things. Therefore, it's time to activate your positive attitude and start searching from within to discover your peace of mind.
