As The World Turns

 

Meet Marine Combat Instructor Trainer of Water Survival (MCITWS) Sgt. Alyssa Triplett.

Black women were thought to not have a fighting chance at this opportunity because of the misconception that black women can't swim that well. Successfully, Alyssa Triplett has proven that to be fiction. She has become the first woman to graduate from the rigorous Scout Swimmer Training course at EWTGPAC near San Diego, CA, and the first black woman in history to train navy seals and marine recon soldiers.

So, dreams do come true every day. If you really want to soar and make the world turn can't nothing or nobody stand in between you and your dream. It takes preparation, commitment, dedication, perseverance, and action.

Abandon all the excuses and trust yourself. Faith without work is dead. Blaming others or claiming people won't help is an excuse that gets you nowhere. Don't allow passivity to rob you of your dream. When you bet on yourself you're making an investment into your own future. One must become supremely dedicated to self and to one's vision.

The next time you become discouraged lean into yourself and find your authenticity. Nothing can become more clear than when you take a look in the mirror and ask yourself "what have you done for me lately"?

  You may not be for everybody, but everybody isn't for you either.  Everybody ain't your partner, but you can be the baddest, greatest, most outstanding individual you can be.  Learn from the beauty of the butterfly and think about all the cycles it had to go through to achieve its beauty.  Life lessons are the best dress rehearsals. Keep your head up, your prayer life strong and remember the best life under the sun is the one you live doing what makes you glow.   It's called I am looooovvvvvve.   დ A touch of love from, Aurora L.

Be Cautious About Who You Help: Some Cook Up Lies

Image
Helping others comes from a place of goodwill and compassion, but it's crucial to be discerning about who you choose to help. While many people seek help for genuine reasons, some will exploit your kindness for their own gain. These individuals may twist the truth, misrepresent the facts, and attempt to steal credit for things they didn’t do all to aggrandize themselves.  Sometimes trying to help others comes with a high price tag. What makes this betrayal so damaging isn’t just the immediate harm caused by their actions, but the ripple effect they create. When some cook up lies, taking credit for your endeavors and distorting the truth, they pull others into their web of lies. People may quickly take sides, rushing to judgment based on half-truths and misconceptions, convinced by a false narrative that paints you as the villain. These manipulative behaviors can fracture relationships in ways that are nearly impossible to repair. Once others are entangled in the lie, trust is broke
