    10 Easy Steps to...
    Growing Older Disgracefully!

    The JOYS of Ageing and blasting the stereotypes!!


    QUOTE (from the INTRODUCTION)

    "To be older, without all those pressing responsibilities, is one of the most exciting periods in our life. A period which is seldom appreciated because of our perception of it, being brainwashed from a long time back that we should dread it and being haunted by the idea that we have only illness and frailty to look forward to with ageing. Yet, I cannot think of anything more sexy and formidable than to have great intelligence, wisdom and experience, and a wonderful, healthy, shapely body to go with it! Eat your heart out all those younger airhead ‘celebrities’ with nothing more than their looks! At the rate I’m going, I’ll probably be the only woman in Britain who will have to whip out my birth certtificate in two years’ time (when I’m 60) to prove that I am entitled to my free bus pass, and I am relishing the moments. In fact, I can’t wait to be 60! Am I mad, or wot?

    For me, ‘disgraceful’ behaviour in older people is one which takes us out of our comfort zones, one that defies predictions and unchanging expectations; one that extends our knowledge, our boundaries and our reach to view life and approach it in a different way. It is an attitude that takes us to new vistas and venues, to new heights of pleasure and personal appreciation of the unique and formidable beings we become as we age; one that brings us firmly and unmistakebly in the modern era. In short, behaviour which helps us to defy ageing and regard it simply as a number marking the stages of life, instead of one that brings fear and dread and controls our living."

    IS THIS SHAPE POSSIBLE?


    I love LIVING, smiling, READING, walking, DANCING, music, CREATING, reflecting, ANALYSING, spiritualism, WRITING, surfing the net, ART events of all kind, Olympics, WORLD CUP football, Eurovision song contest, PASSION, kissing, HUGGING, shagging, THEATRE, dining, CRICKET, tennis, CINEMA and, above all, stimulating CONVERSATION on any subject and matching words with action to MAKE A DIFFERENCE. I'm also interested in anything unique, DIVERSE, educational and MOTIVATING or just chilling out with like-minded individuals to enjoy the moment.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Your Birthdate: April 18
    You are a cohesive force - able to bring many people together for a common cause.
    You tend to excel in work situations, but you also facilitate a lot of social gatherings too.
    Beyond being a good leader, you are good at inspiring others.
    You also keep your powerful emotions in check - you know when to emote and when to repress.

    Your strength: Emotional maturity beyond your years

    Your weakness: Wearing yourself down with too many responsibilities

    Your power color: Crimson red

    Your power symbol: Snowflake

    Your power month: September


    Your IQ Is 120
    Your Logical Intelligence is Below Average

    Your Verbal Intelligence is Genius

    Your Mathematical Intelligence is Genius

    Your General Knowledge is Above Average


    You Are 68% Open Minded
    You are a very open minded person, but you're also well grounded.
    Tolerant and flexible, you appreciate most lifestyles and viewpoints.
    But you also know where you stand firm, and you can draw that line.
    You're open to considering every possibility - but in the end, you stand true to yourself.


    Your EQ is 160
    50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick!
    51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese.
    71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely.
    91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that.
    111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt.
    131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin.
    150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.


    What Is Your True Aura Colour?


    Take this quiz!



    You Are An ENFP
    The Inspirer

    You love being around people, and you are deeply committed to your friends.
    You are also unconventional, irreverant, and unimpressed by authority and rules.
    Incredibly perceptive, you can usually sense if someone has hidden motives.
    You use lots of colorful language and expressions. You're qutie the storyteller!

    You would make an excellent entrepreneur, politician, or journalist.


    What color Rose are you?

    YOU ARE A PINK ROSE!

    You are a happy, generous person. You love to give to others just for the sheer pleasure of making them happy. You are a gentle, sweet soul who is loved by many and admired by all. Your happy and joyful nautre is infectious, and you always have a circle of friends around you ready to support you in all you do. You are outgoing and friendly to all, often very extroverted. However, you don't take things to extremes - you always find the right balance in all you do. Joyful and exhuberant, you are the the one that everyone wants to be friends with. You are a genuinely happy person - congratulations!

    And now for something completely different....
    Take this quiz!


    You Have a Melancholic Temperament
    Introspective and reflective, you think about everything and anything.
    You are a soft-hearted daydreamer. You long for your ideal life.
    You love silence and solitude. Everyday life is usually too chaotic for you.

    Given enough time alone, it's easy for you to find inner peace.
    You tend to be spiritual, having found your own meaning of life.
    Wise and patient, you can help people through difficult times.

    At your worst, you brood and sulk. You are reserved and withdrawn.
    This makes it hard to connect to others.
    You tend to over think small things, making decisions difficult.

    Steps To Happiness

    Everybody Knows:
    You can't be all things to all people.
    You can't do all things at once.
    You can't do all things equally well.
    You can't do all things better than everyone else.
    Your humanity is showing just like everyone else's.

    So:
    You have to find out who you are, and be that.
    You have to decide what comes first, and do that.
    You have to discover your strengths, and use them.
    You have to learn not to compete with others,
    Because no one else is in the contest of *being you*.

    Then:
    You will have learned to accept your own uniqueness.
    You will have learned to set priorities and make decisions.
    You will have learned to live with your limitations.
    You will have learned to give yourself the respect that is due.
    And you'll be a most vital mortal.

    Dare To Believe:
    That you are a wonderful, unique person.
    That you are a once-in-all-history event.
    That it's more than a right, it's your duty, to be who you are.
    That life is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish.
    And you'll be able to stay one up on what used to get you down.

    A LIGHT FOR MADELEINE!
    Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket..

    On Thursday 3 May 2007, little Madeleine McCann from the UK was taken from her bedroom, from her parents and her family while on holiday in the Algarve. As a mother myself, I am not sure what I would have done if my child suddenly vanished. It must be the most awful feeling of desolation and impotence, with not knowing being the hardest part. My heart goes out to Kate and Gerry McCann on this Mother's Day. I hope they find the courage to keep hoping for her return. This candle is my personal tribute and prayer for Madeleine to be found safely. Love and Faith conquer all.


    This candle will burn in hope until Madeliene is returned to her family. May she be protected from all harm by the ocean of love and prayers that surrounds her.

    QUOTE OF THE CENTURY!
    From my friend PHILIP in Ireland...

    "For me all that it takes for it to be a good day is that I awaken in the morning.

    If I wake up, it is a good day.

    If I wake up feeling wonderful, then it’s a good day in which I feel wonderful.

    If I wake up not feeling great, it is a good day in which I’m not feeling great.

    All it takes for me to win, is that I wake up.

    Well I awoke today, and it feels good to be a winner."


    YES INDEED!! Are you a WINNER too?
    Especially if you are TRULY HAPPY!



    I'm a Chevrolet Corvette!

    You're a classic - powerful, athletic, and competitive. You're all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do.

    CELEBRATING 60 YEARS!!!!


    As a writer, innovator, public speaker and executive director of DIVERSITY LEADERS UK, I have spent the past 14 years trying to make a difference to others through public recognition in my annual awards. Now I wish to make a difference to myself! Difficult to know how long one has left so it is time to stop and smell the roses while one still has breath! I must be the only woman in the world getting younger with each year. Being fearless in life, I refuse to let little trivialities like ageing or death worry me. Life is for living, says the old cliché, and I'm busy turning that into a fact!

    The world is moving along so rapidly, thanks to technology, we have to dive in and enjoy it before we are left way behind. My main purpose now is to empower others through my life coaching and motivational expertise. For example, if you are tempted to see the worst before the best, why not change your outlook today and find something great first? It costs you nothing, you would make someone exceedingly happy and your world could become very powerful and magical!

    GROWING OLDER DISGRACEFULLY


    I am a warm, tactile, passionate, confident, independent person who enjoys every aspect of life and believes in NOW. The past cannot be revisited and the future might never arrive, so the only time I really have is TODAY and I intend to make the most of it. I have a cheeky sense of humour and prefer spontaneity, flexibility, honesty and open-mindedness.

    As I am keen to enjoy every day of my life, my latest book, 10 Easy Steps to Growing Older Disgracefully, reflects this. I do not wish to be any other age because my life at 25 was nowhere as exciting and enjoyable as my life at 50. Nope, there will be no genteel ageing for me - I'll be going there disgracefully while enjoying every minute, which would make me highly unsuitable for those clinging to their past, their little comfort zones and their ageist/racist fears. But perfect for that special, exciting, wonderful soulmate!



    12 LESSONS IN LIFE

    To LAUGH is to risk appearing a fool;
    To WEEP is to risk appearing sentimental;
    To REACH OUT for another is to risk involvement;
    To EXPOSE feelings is to risk rejection;
    To place your DREAMS before the crowd is to risk ridicule.
    To LOVE is to risk not being loved in return.

    1. BUT...The person who risks NOTHING, has NOTHING,
    does NOTHING - and is NOTHING.
    Only a person who risks is truly ALIVE and FREE.

    2. Never make someone your PRIORITY when to them you're only an option...

    3. Never allow yourself to be someone's something when you can be someone else's EVERYTHING!! (ANON)

    4. When you make your mark, you will always attract some envy. Those who envy you will see your glory without knowing your story. But if the grass looks greener on your side of the fence, you can rest assured that the water bill is much higher too!!

    5. KNOW YOUR PURPOSE. Purpose does not mean having a job. You can have a job and still be unfulfilled. A purpose is having a clear sense of who you are, not what you do. Above all, your purpose is not defined by what others think of you, but what you think of yourself.

    6. A PESSIMIST sees the difficulty in every opportunity;
    an OPTIMIST sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

    7. The best things in life can never be kept. They must be given away:
    A SMILE, a HUG, a KISS and LOVE."

    8. LOVE DOES NOT THRIVE IN NEGATIVITY. It has understanding, compassion and empathy at its core. If you live in a culture where the men address the women as 'hoes', 'bitches' and other derogatory terms, just remember a key important thing: RESPECT does not come out of negativity either. It comes out of self-love. People who use those terms to describe their womenfolk are demonstrating their own level of low self-esteem, lack of respect for themself and disregard for their female relatives. With little self-respect, they are unable to love anyone else and will put others down to make themselves feel valued.

    9. Don't be limited by other people's limitations.

    10. Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens.

    11. Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
    Choose your words, for they become actions.
    Understand your actions, for they become habits.
    Study your habits, for they will become your character.
    Develop your character, for it becomes your destiny."

    Anonymous


    AND FINALLY (from me)....
    12. We do not overcome evil by becoming evil ourselves! In that awful moment of madness we lose our self-respect and our integrity, falling from the moral high ground of justice to land with a thud on the same low level of injustice perpetrated by our oppressors...

    PROUD ACHIEVEMENTS

    I am proud of EVERYTHING in my life so far, even the apparent 'failures' or setbacks, because they all combined to make me the resilient, knowledgeable and understanding person I am today. I learnt both how to, and not to, do things and that is very important to develop one's full potential. Trial and error have certainly given me some incredible skills and expertise. People who fear mistakes may not make any, but they won't move out of their groove of stagnation either, always remaining on the same fearful level, because it is through mistakes that we learn.

    First of all, I am very proud of my two very talented children, despite current difficulties. They were magical in their teenage years. We'll all be surrounding each other again with love in due course. I have also been a pioneer with a number of firsts to my name: like the first Black graduate of the awesome Open University; the first Black woman to create and edit her own national magazine in the UK; the first person to address members of the House of Commons on diversity issues; the first to introduce two national awards to encourage harmony and inclusiveness in the workplace and to recognise outstanding achievement among individuals of diverse communities. My simple belief is that we need each other, Black or White, to survive, and only mutual RESPECT and being inclusive can save us all. So I am neither above nor beneath anyone else, because it is through other people that I appreciate my own strengths, purpose and value.

    Who I'd like to meet:

    Anyone who is caring, compassionate, interesting and themself; those influenced by LOVE instead of fear. But I tend to warm towards inspiring, fearless people who have the courage of their convictions because words are free and easy. It is actions which are more difficult! Some really special people I would love to meet are:

  • Barack Hussain Obama (The most inspiring man of the 21st century! I have dedicated a website to him here: My Journey with Barack Obama.
  • Aung San Suu Kyi (Amazing lady campaigning or a Free Burma)
  • Nelson Mandela (what a rare human being!)
  • Mahatma Ghandi (My hero...yes, I know it's impossible to meet him!!)
  • Malcolm X (His true worth was not recognised during his lifetime)
  • Condoleeza Rice (If only to check if she really is as cold and wooden as she looks!)
  • J.K.Rowling (The greatest role model for self-belief, persistence and sheer determination. JK is clear and irrefutable proof in the power of thought to shape destiny.)
  • Ellen MacArthur (An amazing, determined lady)
  • Richard Gere (Mmmmmmm...lots of depth there)
  • Denzel Washington (Scrumptious! and a wonderful role model)
  • Amitabh Bacchan (Wow...what a sexpot!)
  • Hugh Grant (Sooooooo dishy!)
  • Julie Burchill (Sunday Times - my heroine!)
  • Mohammad Ali (No other boxing equal for me.)
  • Oprah Winfrey (The consumate Black achiever and role model!)
  • Amy Irving (To take to the skies when women weren't even allowed to leave their homes is simply awesome)
  • Franz Beckenbauer (The Greatest German Footballer?)

    TO ALSO reconcile with my two lovely children, André and Nicole, who have their own issues just now. NOTHING in life is worth such pain, such lost time, lost opportunities and lost love. Every moment is precious!!

    BEST OF ALL....to be serenaded by Ben E King, Vel Omarr, Freddie McGregor and Neil Diamond - one after the other!!! What heaven!

    MY FABULOUS ROLE MODELS!!
    Which of them would inspire you?

      How are you? Could use you comment on the YouTube page for this song since I am not allowed to do it. Plus a rating and letting your contacts know to do the same I would highly appreciate. It would help me a lot to get the downloads of just this song to return to the studio to record "Alles Wird Gut" that I wrote while in Europe and also one called "Red Roses On The Floor".

      Elaine, how are ya, jus sharing sum thoughts with ya, keep shining LoVe

      Caught up in LoVe, Not the rapid spin of the Earth
      Busy times continue but Love for all has a priceless worth
      Things out of our control, nature, people’s thoughts and more
      Love is all that is needed among earth for not one to be poor.
      OneLove always……. Peace & Light

      My prayer today (just like everyday) is that you see yourself the way I see you...





      Myspace Comments @ 123glitter.com







      Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn&#39;t serve the world. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It&#39;s not just in some of us; it&#39;s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.&quot; --Marianne Williamson

      Sup Elaine Enjoy your tyme……...Keep Shining

      The Woman

      Your smile is earth’s sunshine
      Your laughter is my favorite song
      Your voice is the greatest instrument
      Your words have calmed raging storms
      Your heartbeat plays a perfect rhythm
      Your love will remain immeasurable
      Your eyes speak an Angel’s truth
      Your mind strengthens a weary soul
      Your body is the most beautiful statue
      Your walk carries a mesmerizing stride
      Your presence is my light by day & moon by night
      You are the spirit that gives life its will to survive
