MY FAMILY MEANS EVERYTHING TO ME. It is the divine connection given directly by the Universe. I AM THE MOTHER TO EXTRODINARY BRILLIANT AND GIFTED YOUTH and wife to an amazingly great man! Although I have lost my two oldest sons (RISE IN PARADISE ANTHONY KARON AND KHATARI ESSIEN) to the transition of life, I still find the beauty, joy and sacredness of life in their memories and in the bright light of my present children, grandchildren, my nieces their children and my nephews children (all grand children as well), and I am god mother/community mama to some of the best people you will ever know.
All through out my life I find beautiful and amazing blessings as the Divine and Sacred Energies are present for me and make me aware of the presence of the CREATOR and their presence in all life's relationships and experiences. I am living with an awareness that the CREATOR is all there is and through that absolute and all encompassing interconnectedness, the ANCESTARS and the Universal Relations are present for us at all times making their ASE available to us in a knowing thought and/or a sincere prayer. I know that Love, Liberation, Joy, Wholeness, Peace of Mind, Clarity, Prosperity, Abundance, Optimum Health and Well Being, Harmony, Balance, True Alafia are ours to become in a milisecond of just acknowledging, asking, believing, receiving and accepting. AND SO IT IS!
My intention is to align myself with the transformation of the planet through true Evolutionary and Revolutionary actions and practices, to love as fully, passionately, unconditionally and as completetly as possible. To be connected to The Creator and the Universe as and in Self first; family and community and my people as part of self and to understand that connection as LOVE SUPREME AND UNCONDITIONAL. To manifest the Divine Will and the earthly expression of our Ancestars through me, MY THOUGHTS, my prayers, daily actions, interactions, relationships and lifestyle choices.
I AM BLESSED TO BE WORKING IN AN ORGANIZED BODY WITH SOME POWERFUL, DEDICATED, VIBRANT, CREATIVE NEW AFRIKAN PEOPLE.
