There are plenty mountains to climb, and many were climbed, she dealt with obstacles no one would have believed; by the help of God, she got through this.Being a black woman is a target of many things. You would have to be a black woman to understand the pain, suffering, rejection and anger that she’s dealt with in the past; the relationships and being a parent; the way she handles situations. The way she makes love, teach, listens and share love, plus discipline her children.Most of the time she is deeply religious; she’s great in covering her feelings, her pains from the issues.A successful black woman feels great about herself and her education; she would sacrifice and sacrifice every thing in her will to make things in life happen.Keeping a personal relationship with God helps her to jump over the hurdles that is laid out before her; she is always on bended knees, crying out for mercy for her love ones.The battles and abuse has given her a strong back bone for centuries. Through the silence and torment; humiliation from her rapist, helps her to take her purpose in life very serious.Exercising her gifts is very promising to her. The beauty of a black woman’s eyes is the mirror to her soul.The lips and hips of a black woman is the sexiest part of her body, she is built with a special character, which makes people wonder about her thunder!!!The voice of a black woman carries like a wave into the ocean; it can be heard from a distance. The PMS of a black woman is a very emotional time of the month; so be aware of her raging hormones; do give her space.Being a black woman carries her weight well for success, she haves a strong identity; she believes the factor, drop it when it’s Hot!!!The black woman is one of a kind with a powerful mind. Some people get intimidated in her presence but, her focus is to keep striving for her next journey.Some nights there were nothing but tears from a wounded heart. Cherish and love so hard; but yet looked over.Knocked down and kicked in the face, had to wear a mask from that make up case. Keep smiling, have not a clue; being a black woman, is it to keep that head up.Fix her self up; put on her favorite dress that fit her to a tee; don’t let it be a nice summer night with a breeze and feeling free.Oh yes, being a black woman has been taken for granted; still trying to in slaved her in many ways.Cleaning, washing, scrubbing on bended knees and yes, she is tired. Never giving up; there is a Destiny.Being a black woman with BIG, BIG, DREAMS……&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Article written by Paula Cook-Thompson&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;9/22/04&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Copyright 2004 Blessed Hands Enterprises 2003&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14438047-116388764553101566?l=essensepaula.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/116388764553101566'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/116388764553101566'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://essensepaula.blogspot.com/2006/11/being-black-womenpaula-thompsons.html' title='BEING A BLACK WOMEN&gt;Paula Thompson&apos;s Theory'/><author><name>essensepaula</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16087484885161170207</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/Paula%20explore.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14438047.post-116319674314170089</id><published>2006-11-10T17:09:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-11-10T17:12:23.143-05:00</updated><title type='text'>ARE YOU HAVING ANY PROBLEMS?</title><content type='html'>A GATHERING AT THE MOCHA MATCH COFFEE BAR&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FREE &amp; OPEN TO THE PUBLIC&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DEEP MEDITATIONS WITH ESSENSEPAULA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AUTHOR-PUBLISHER/RADIO HOST/FILM MAKER&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She will show how to SPEAK INTO YOUR SPIRIT***&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHEN: NOVEMBER 14, 2006; EVERY 2ND TUESDAY EVENING&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TIME: 6-7pm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LOCATION: 627 E.

His birthday is in August; I guest he would be about in his eighty's. I've asked my mother time after time; what was he like? Well, she didn't have much to say; that he was a jazz drummer, a cab driver, and a Debuty Sheriff when he died. I wanted to know want was his personality was like, did you and him argue a lot. I wondered did he have a quick temper. Where is his family? who are they? So far, he had two sons, whom are much older than me. My mother was his second wife. His name was Walter Lewis Cook. My mother told me that he liked baked chicken, and when he came in from work at night, that he wanted to wake me up and play. I don't understand why he had to leave in a tragic death; he had a heart attack at the wheel on I-20 east; he was on his way to work. I do remember when the police told my mother, she was so calmed; I'm sure she cried, she always try to stay strong around me. Im still doing some SOUL SEARCHING....because there is a piece of me that need to know something. The spirit of Walter still comes arounds me. I can feel him; he's trying to tell me something. WHERE IS HE? WHERE IS MY FATHER? Just tell me what you want me to do. Since I've been grown now, the lord always direct me back to Decatur...I-20 east. There is a mission to complete and I don't know what it is? I know he was a jazz musician and I'm beginning to get more into jazz, it's like his spirit reliving in me. But, there is a peace, kind and warm feeling. I'm holding on to that. There is no harm, I'm not afraid....lord just keep me covered in your blood &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14438047-112484947561662173?l=essensepaula.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112484947561662173'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112484947561662173'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://essensepaula.blogspot.com/2005/08/where-is-my-father.html' title='Where Is My Father?'/><author><name>essensepaula</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16087484885161170207</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/Paula%20explore.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14438047.post-112448884077615278</id><published>2005-08-19T17:59:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-09-07T00:06:51.816-04:00</updated><title type='text'>"My Dreams, Gifts, My Visions, Outer body experiences"</title><content type='html'>God has given me a powerful gift that I can not take for granted......I can see and feel things....I can tell when the enemy is on its way....I can tell when someone is lying to me...I feel when someone is hurting.....I can see angels, visions, people's spirits, I can see evil and demonic things;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I keep having a strange dream of this big house but the basement is very dark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I dreamed two times of this big house with girls in it.

I was separated from Sam for a whole year....trying to keep busy. I was so angry couldn't stay focus....cursed everybody out still trying to hold on to Sam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was lost!!!!! This was my first marriage......didn't understand about sharing....the boys got on my last nerve...they couldn't except me as their step mother. This was crazy; I didn't know what I wanted; just letting the wind take me where ever. I didn't want to live any more...I kept asking the lord to take me.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I didn't want to breathe no longer......we couldn't keep a roof over our heads; food was always low but, we managed....could not buy clothes for children when they really needed it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just didn't care no more nor understand....didn't want to understand....finally I had to come to my senses especially one night I got up to check on the children....at...lease I thought I did till late that night a dealth angel came for me. My body was elevating out of the bed....I could see my own self!!!!! Than I turned to look to see who it was....it had a cape and a hood on....I turned back around and said JESUS!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;When I said that....It vanished....I ran to tell Sam he was in the living room sleep. I woke him up and told him what happened!!! He just didn't know what to think....so I know the lord had been talking to me but, I didn't want to hear it....well, that night the lord showed me and he wasn't playing....I told the lord right then I'll do what ever you want me to do...because I SURRENDER!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14438047-112192544174989791?l=essensepaula.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112192544174989791'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112192544174989791'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://essensepaula.blogspot.com/2005/07/i-had-to-change-my-wicked-ways.html' title=''/><author><name>essensepaula</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16087484885161170207</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/Paula%20explore.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14438047.post-112192325222687845</id><published>2005-07-21T01:03:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-07-21T01:21:29.850-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/lovett%20family.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/400/lovett%20family.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Such a time of an essence...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was my first marriage....&lt;br /&gt;My self;&lt;br /&gt;Sam to the right;&lt;br /&gt;Dont'e (11) with his hand on Sam's shoulder;&lt;br /&gt;My daughter Dorothea 2 yrs old;&lt;br /&gt;Leondrice (13) next to Dorothea;&lt;br /&gt;LaBryant (12) next to Leondrice;&lt;br /&gt;next up to Labryant; that's&lt;br /&gt;Lamont.

She gasped for air as the fall wind rushed through the window, through her silky bronze hair. She was a plain girl; who loved lilies in her sewing room. Some days she just sews all kinds of designs on her coats and dresses. Melody is about in her 40’s and very thin and petite; she grew up in an old country town called VILLA. Her parents ran a business, fixing old wooden tables. Melody had 3 sisters and 4 brothers. One of her cousins died in a bad car accident while he was delivering wood. They were very close. In fact too close, he was in his 50’s and his name was Jino. He was tall and very muscular, some would call him a “pretty boy and had a way with the ladies”, but Jino only had eyes for one lady. You see, Jino always had loved Melody, like she was his wife. They had what some would call a STRANGE RELATIONSHIP. The family did not understand how this had gotten started. It went against the natural fiber of their beliefs. So, one day the family asked Melody, “How did this happen”? Melody looked at them very mean and said, “I don’t know!!!!” Melody’s family was the type of people who believed in spirits from beyond...they always thought when someone would die, their spirits came back stronger. Well, when Jino died on that day of the 4th of July parade, Melody had seen him that night sitting at her desk. She always sat there when she was singing or was upset with him. Well, he didn’t say anything, but, he wrote her a note, a love note at that….then, he brought it to her, then all of a sudden VANISHED…..she just stood there amazed with her sleepy eyes. Am I dreaming, she asked herself? I got to lay off of those late night snacks. Hesitantly, she read the letter which said, ``Come go with me to PARADISE. We will have eternal love…. I love you and I need you!!!’’ She dropped the letter in tears and ran to the bathroom; she started looking in the mirror and started to comb her very long beautiful bronze hair. Melody thought for a second and said, ``Jino….I want you!!!! I love you!!!’’ “JINO, JINO, JINO, where are you please come back sweetheart!!!!” As she ran out the bathroom, she slipped on her sexy silky gold and white robe, and then she ran outside for air. Melody’s sister, Jane saw her out side while she was standing in the window looking out….then in the blink of an eye; Jane vanished as soon as she saw Melody crying. There were the sounds of crickets every where and even birds were chirping. One of Melody’s brothers, Tom had a horse. The horse started to kick, then the horse kicked up again; by that time, Jane was on the horse. When Melody looked up and saw Jane&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp; Jino on the horse together, she screamed, “Jane! Jane!” Jino turned around and smiled at Melody…..then, he looked at Jane, who just sat there as if she was in a trance. Melody, with tears in her eyes, looked at her sister. She was always angry at Jane, because she was sooooo beautiful. Jane had short curly hair, somewhat auburn&lt;br /&gt;in color. She was also small and petite like Melody. It’s strange that Melody was jealous of her sister, since they both looked similar in their appearance. Jane was quieter than Melody. I wonder what’s going on in that head of hers, Melody would always ask of her quiet sister. Jane always would watch Jino, especially when he was building tables with wood. Jane is in her early 30’s. She was always making Melody feel like dirt. They kind of had that sibling rivalry thing going on there, if you know what I mean. Finally, Melody’s brother, Tom came outside. “What is going on?!!!!” he inquired. Melody said nothing and looked at her baby brother…..Tom was in his late 20’s; Tom resembled Cary Grant in his appearance, like he had just stepped out of GQ magazine. Melody reached over and grabbed him and said, “You just don’t understand”. Then Tom asked, “Understand what?” Melody kissed him on his forehead as she pulled him to walk with her. He replied, “Melody, you might not believe this, but I know where Jane went.” Melody asked, “….b-b-but how you know?” Tom put his hand on his head and replied, “I heard her talking on the phone this evening, and she called his name.” Melody replied, “His NAME….Whose Name?” “Jino’s.” Melody replied, “WHATTTTT, that old hussy. They’re playing games with me!!!” Tom sighed, “Melody, I’m sorry. I hate to add more gasoline to the fire, but, Jane is pregnant with Jino’s baby!!!” At this moment, Melody felt a deep sickness in her heart. Melody responded, “Tom, why would you say a thing like that???” “I’m really sorry and Melody, I’m not really your baby brother” This seemed like something out of a horror movie and Melody was acting out the part of a confused young lady. SOMEONE had some explaining to do. Melody replied, “What...wh-where is all this coming from? Tom? Tom??” Tom turned away smiling and whispered, “Baby, I’ve always loved you.” Oh, my God, Melody thought, could this night get any more strange and confusing?? Apparently, the worst was yet to come. Melody responded, “Look, just who are you and why are you saying all of this to me??” Then Jane showed up out of nowhere. Melody turned around and just looked at Jane. Jane approached Melody, who at this point didn’t know what to expect, and told her that she had killed Jino. “Jino is gone forever” said Jane with an evil grin on her beautiful face. Melody replied, Jino died 4th of July! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Replied Jane, “Let me explain”, You better, thought Melody, you’re all starting to tick me off here and all of this is crazy…”Jino had someone to fake his death, because I’m pregnant with his baby and plus he was having an affair with my boss at work.” “Why…” responded Melody, “…why did Tom tell me that he was not really my brother” “Well, he’s right”, replied Jane “…..you see Tom was Jino’s oldest son. Jino was in a lot of trouble so he came here to this small town to get away from his step mother (they were the same age) she was black mailing him about their property”. As Jane was talking, Tom was standing there in a daze, and then all of a sudden, he started laughing. Tom responded, “We have a Palace and my dad Jino is filthy rich!!” Melody screamed, “So, you’re&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;saying when Jane saw that Jino was falling in love with me, Jane black mailed your father!!! You are telling a lie!!!! Stated Tom, “Jane found out that my father was rich so she seduced him and she got pregnant, too.” All of a sudden, Jane ran toward the house and slammed the door. (BOOM) “Melody”, Tom replied, “ I’ve always adored&lt;br /&gt;you. Do you remember when you were brushing your hair in the bathroom?” “Yes”, cried Melody. Now, how did he know that, she was asking herself, do I have a peeping Tom, as well. Since his name was TOM, she didn’t see the humor in that joke. “ Well, Melody, that was me sitting at the desk. I’m the one wrote the note come go with me to paradise not Jino”. Melody replied,” I don’t get it, I saw Jino VANISH… How could you?” “Well, I figured if I looked like Jino, my dad, you would come but, I was side tracked by Jane”. “But how, did you vanish??” “Honey, I know a little sumptin’ sumpin’ about magic tricks and mirrors, but all that’s irrelevant now”. “Tom”, Melody asked,” where is Jino? Is he…??? “Nooooo sweetheart”, replied Tom, “we tricked Jane; she thought it was Jino, that was a dummy; we set her up.” Melody was upset, confused and really wanted all of this to come to an end and to see her beloved Jino again. Someone was playing a lot of mind games here and it was becoming tiresome. Melody replied, “Oooh my god! What now?” Suddenly, there was something stirring from behind them, the sound of foot steps coming through the grass, Tom and Melody turned quickly around and it was Jino. “JINO!!!!!” they both said. Jino’s pants were all cut up around his waist and he just looked at Tom and Melody with an expressionless look on his face. Apparently, this was going to be an even longer night………&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CHAPTER 2&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MELODY FINDS REALITY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several years have gone by now, as Melody was driving down the road, she began realizing that her life was at stake, in transition now, so she had to make some difficult decisions; her parents still lived in Villa but the rest of her sisters and brothers moved to another part of town. Jane had a baby girl; Tom became President of a bank and Jino ended up marring a woman from the islands. Melody had lost interest for her sewing and she started a very productive business selling marble furniture; she always dreamed of having a masterpiece. One day a beautiful brown lady walked into Melody’s store. Melody replied, “May I help you?” The lady answered, “Yes, you may”. Melody had never seen this lady before and she was well dressed and elegant. She replied, “Melody do you know who I am?” Melody answered, “No ma’am, who are you and how do you know me??” The lady answered, “I’m Lexis, Jino’s stepmother” “Ohhhhhhh hi!” Apparently, she must have forgotten all about Lexis and nonchalantly, Melody replied, “And how have you been?” “I’m great, thanks for asking and you?” inquired Lexis. As Melody was standing, she began to get dizzy, the room started spinning, and then she fainted. Lexis screamed, “Melody! MELODY!!! Oh god!!! Somebody HELP ME!!!” Lexis ran to call 911 and as she was calling for the ambulance, people started running into the store to see what all the commotion was about. A man and a lady started performing CPR; finally, the ambulance came and rushed her to Villa Rucker Hospital. Melody started loosing blood; the nurses was inserting tubes and IV‘s in her arms and body. Melody remained unconscious. Lexis asked them could she go in the room with her. One doctor replied, “Do you mind if I ask you some questions??” “Sure,” Lexis replied, “Well, I was just talking to her and then, all of a sudden, she fainted.” “How do you know her, who is she to you?” the young doctor inquired. Lexis replied, “I’m an old friend of the family”. “OK, but I’m going to have to notify her family. She’s lost a lot of blood and she will need a blood transfusion”. Lexis replied, “Well, I’ll do the best that I can to find them”. The young doctor was concerned, “Well, we need someone now like yesterday because, if you don’t get them here in 24 hours, Melody will die”. Lexis just stood there in a daze while the nurses and doctors were everywhere running back and forth trying to get Melody situated. “Miss, Miss, did you hear what I said???” “Yes, sorry, I must go now”. Alexis ran out the hospital. “Now, where am I going to start looking?” So she got in her car and then a thought came in her head that she was about 5 miles from Melody’s parents’ house. Finally, she arrived at the house looked and it looked worn down Lexis was amazed at how this beautiful 1920’s style house could look so&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;desolate and empty, yet still have some evidence of life in it, so she kept on driving till she saw someone in the yard. Lexis stopped the car suddenly, SCREEEEEEECHHHHHH and jumped out running…. “Oh, excuse me, but could you please, please help me!!!” It was a fair skinned lady standing by the flower garden. Lexis yelled, “Excuse me, please; I'm looking for Melody’s parents. Do you know….?” and before she could say another word the lady spoke and said with a heavy island accent, “My name is Coa-Coa and I've been expecting you…” Lexis dumbfounded answered, “Wh-what, you don't know anything about me and who are you? Where are Melody’s parents? How did you know I was coming?” Coa-Coa responded, “There, there, my dear, that's a long story but come on in and we’ll have some tea and……….” Lexis quickly interjected, “No, no……….we have no time to waste, Melody is dying!!!!” Coa-Coa replied, “Come with me then, and I’ll talk to them”. Lexis and Coa-Coa got in Lexis’ Mercedes and finally reached where Melody’s parents were. They jumped out the car and entered this huge building. As they were walking through the glass doors, Lexis asked, “Where am I???” “Come”, Coa-Coa insisted as they were walking through this building. There were people standing around or walking around looking bewildered and amazed….&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, a man with long black braids walked up to them and said, “Look, what do you want and why did you come here?” Coa-Coa replied, “You know what I want and why I am here”. Lexis was frantic and shouted, “Who is this man and we still don’t have much time……Melody………..” Coa-Coa replied, “Well, don’t be shy, tell the woman….” “I am Zoy, the son of Josh. I own this town and they obey my orders”. Lexis just looked at him and said, “Look, I don’t care who you are, you could be the King of England for all I care, all I am looking for is Melody’s parents.” Zoy looked at her and said “So you haven’t heard?” Lexis with a puzzled expression on her tired and weary face said “Have I heard what?” Ok Zoy replied, “Melody’s parents are dead and have been dead for quite some time now.” Coa-Coa and Lexis asked at the same time, “How did they die?” Zoy grabbed them both by their arms and was leading them away all the while saying, “We can’t talk here, let’s go!!!” Zoy took them put the ladies in his jeep, then drove off. They were in a very small town called Fexton. Zoy drove about 2 miles to their destination. Finally they hopped out the jeep, he told them if they turned around that he would hurt them. Lexis had wondered what have I gotten myself into and how does all this tie in with what’s going on with Melody. God, I hope she’s still alright, I know time’s ticking and I hope my time isn’t up soon, I’ve so much to do and little time to do it. They all entered into this big house; it was like a mansion and the butler meet them at the door. Zoy told the butler to get them some wine. As they entered, Lexis could see a long spiral staircase and a statue in the center of the floor, probably Greek, she thought. This man has money, or at least someone does. Zoy broke her train of thought when he asked, “What do I get out of this?” Lexis gazed at him and wanted&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to punch his lights out, “What do you mean?” Zoy replied, “Well, I’m looking for love tonight because I’ve been very lonely…”, OH MY GOD, thought, Lexis, what have I gotten myself into now. It’s a nightmare!!!!!!! “Well”, Coa-Coa answered, “you can have me, just tell us what we want to know”. Lexis wanted to ran but, she don’t know how or why, she managed to stay calm. Zoy replied, “Look , Melody’s parents were in a store and some one bombed it and there was a lot of smoke, everybody else were saved but them, no one could find their bodies. It was like they had vanished or something, so we believed that either they escaped and don’t know where they are or the rumor is a spirit came and got them”. All of this seemed a little far-fetched to Lexis and Coa-Coa just stood there gazing into Zoy’s brown eyes. “Look, Melody is dying and she needs help; she needs blood”. “Well, I can’t help her and I’m not sure if anyone can”, Zoy replied. This is NOT good, she thought, “well, what are we going to do?” Suddenly, Lexis’ phone rang. Coa-Coa said, “I thought you left your phone in your car, how did you get it?” Lexis was also puzzled and said, “I didn’t or I don’t remember, look, I don’t KNOW!!!!” Lexis answered the phone; apparently, it was the young doctor who was asking her, “Is this......” At the sound of his voice, Lexis screamed and dropped the phone. Coa-Coa picked up the phone, she asked the voice on the other end, “Who are you and what is going on? After a couple of “Umm Hmm’s and Oh, I see”, she got off the phone. Lexis said, “Coa-Coa you need to start talking, now, what’s going on?” Coa-Coa replied, “Well, it seems that this family was under a curse that was performed 20 yrs ago”. “20 yrs ago,” Lexis replied, “Zoy, do you know anything about this?” “Well, not really”. Lexis replied, “the both of you are lying”. Coa-Coa replied, “it’s late, we need to go”. Lexis replied, “now what, go where?” Zoy replied, “why don’t you all stay here tonight and leave in the morning??” Zoy called for the butler and asked, would he show them to their rooms. The butler smiled and told them to come alone, when both of the ladies started walking off, Zoy whispered to Coa-Coa, “see you later on tonight”, she looked at him with a smirk. The ladies were in their rooms. Lexis said, good night to Coa-Coa…..Coa-Coa started getting undressed, she slipped into silk pajamas that were laid out for the guests, Coa-Coa started turning her covers back; then suddenly, a slip of paper was slid under her door, she went to the door picked up the paper and started reading, it read, “I want you tonight, meet me in the galaxy room”. So, she grabbed her slippers that she saw under the bed, put them on and ran out the door. When she left the room, she asked the butler to show her to the galaxy room, he did, then the butler looked at her and he asked, “Are you going to be with him tonight?” She smirked, “that’s none of your business”. The butler replied that galaxy room is very dangerous, he always has women in there every other night. They go in and don’t come back out. “Okay”, responded, Coa-Coa. So, she thought to herself a fine young man like that I can see why. When Coa-Coa walked in, there was standing Josh, Zoy’s father, in a blue robe. “Well”, he said, “I see that you made it”, Josh replied. Coa-Coa walked up to him and hugged him, “yes, it’s been a long time,” “yes”, Josh replied, “yes, it has”. I heard that you were in town so I sent for you”. “How and why Josh?” Josh replied, “Umm, we have unfinished business”. Coa-Coa replied, “Okkkkkkk, what&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;unfinished business?” Josh replied, “10 yrs ago you took plenty of money from me”. Coa-Coa responded, “I don’t remember”. Josh responded, “Well, if I touch you, would you remember that night?” Coa-Coa fell on the sofa; then he grabbed her and started kissing her in a mad passionate way, while this was going on, Zoy had entered into Lexis’ room, he stood there looking at her while she laying there with her clothes off, wrapped in a sheet. He walked over to her bed, then she turned around and looked at Zoy, then she asked sleepily, “What took you so long?” Zoy replied to Lexis, “Baby, I’m glad to see you, but, nobody can’t see us like this”. Bewildered, Lexis asked, “like what, hon?” Zoy replied “in bed with you”, as he whispered to her, he took the sheet off and started rubbing her arms and legs, she pull him closer to her and started rubbing her fingers through his long black braids. Time had slipped away morning came, Coa-Coa woke up and found her self in another room “Hmmmm” she said to herself looking around. She thought that she had too much to drink but, she kept quiet, got up and walked around. Coa-Coa went to the window to look out, there she saw Josh and a young lady standing beside him. The lady looked funny, very pale, and then she heard some one walked in the room. She quickly turned and she screamed; it was the butler. Coa-Coa replied, “Did anyone ever tell you you should knock before you enter??” The butler answered, “I did, you didn’t hear me. The butler was a tall and slender distinguished man with a bald head. “Well”, Coa-Coa asked, “what is it that you want anyway?” The butler answered, “here are some clothes, miss, put them on and call me “S.T.”, “Okay, S.T. it is”. She wondered what S.T. stood for, but didn’t want to impose for she could really care less. Coa-Coa just smiled, then, S.T. said to her, “I’m actually surprised that you’re still here”, Coa-Coa said to S.T. “Well, never mind that, say, who is that with Josh?” S.T. replied, “Oh, her name’s Melody”, “WHATTTTTTTTT!!! Coa-Coa screamed. S.T. just smirked and said, “See I told you its dangerous here. Now, you should really put on your clothes”. By this time Zoy and Lexis had left the bed room and were in the garden, they had found a destiny of laughter. Zoy gazed at his father and saw him walking through the garden but, he was alone. Zoy replied, “Father, come and meet Lexis”. So, he walked over and they were introduced. “Well, well, well, so, Lexis did you enjoy your stay? inquired Josh with a quirky smile on his tired face. “Well, as a matter of fact, yes, I did” answered Lexis. Lexis asked, “Have you seen Coa-Coa?” Josh responded matter-of-factly, “No, I haven’t but, I must go now, I am leaving for Miami tonight. Zoy, can I see you in the art room, please”. Zoy replied, “but…..”, “Now, Josh, that’s an order”. Josh stated, “You know that’s not the plan. Melody showed up. Why? How?” Zoy replied, “because she knows what happened to her parents”. “Who told her?” asked Lexis. “I told her”. All heads turned as Coa-Coa entered into the room.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CHAPTER 3&lt;br /&gt;Accomplished Journey&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One year later, after Lexis took over Josh’s house and town, Josh and his son, Zoy, were arrested for possession of illegal documents and drug smuggling. As for Coa-Coa, she started running an escort service and wanted Lexis to help her out. Lexis told her no and that she had better things to do. No one still knows what happened to Melody and her parents. They had gone looking for her sisters but, somehow ended up as a mystery too. Lexis had decided one day that she would take a vacation, so she packed at the last minute and left. She went to the airport to get the next plane going to Vegas. She needed to leave all that had happened and all she experience behind her. Wow, what a life!!! So, she boarded the plane, got seated, and relaxed until she got to her destination. She decided to take a nap, next thing she knew, the plane had landed in Vegas. Everybody started getting off and the stewardess said “Miss, miss, you’re in Vegas”. When she opened her eyes to tell the lady thank you, she had gotten frighten and let out a loud gasp…. Lexis looked at the lady again and replied, “Melody”? The lady looked startled and said, “excuse me”?? Lexis sat up and said again, “Melody, it’s me, Lexis, what are you doing here”? The stewardess looked at her very upset and responded, “I’m sorry, miss, but my name is not Melody, and you must have me confused with someone else”. “then, what is your name”? asked Lexis in a harsh tone. “It’s Brandy”. Lexis asked her, “Have you lost your mind”? Then, Brandy ran off the plane. Lexis screamed, “I’m sorry. Wait!!!!” Lexis ran after her, yet there was no sign of Brandy no where. Lexis got very upset and was still confused. Man, these past several days have taken a toll on me and my mind. She went on to get her hotel room. Lexis caught a cab, it was a beautiful night. Finally, Lexis arrived at her hotel. The cab driver asked, “So, you’re new in town”??? Lexis responded “yes, I am”. The cab driver asked her, “Well, may I show you around Vegas”? “Ok, whatever. Sure, here’s my card” replied a tired and weary Lexis. “Okay,” the cab driver replied, “…..just call me Jino”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Summery: Melody was a young lady that were caught up in a strange relationship with a spirit of power.

How? How could she let this tear down the wisdom that God created to protect her? How did she let this in....these walls are Spiritual Walls without a curse. She knows it's Poison, it doesn't have a clue what she already knew....there are few who realizes what this really is. Why? As the time flies by, she will have to Fall in the Arms of the Almighty God!!! JESUS CHRIST brought LIFE with a PRICE. There is HOPE to get a grip on things. Pierced by FORCE, waving and gliding through the air. The time bomb is ticking, thinking that it had her LAST BREATH. Poison drew her closer to the anointing....fulfilling her cup with LOVE. We can do this; Distroy this madness that was not sent from ABOVE. Peace and Happiness rushing through the room. This wasted energy called Poison has been CONQURED, there's an answer in every step of the way!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poem written by the Holy Ghost and Paula Thompson&lt;br /&gt;(9-9-03)&lt;br /&gt;Sheldon and Paula Thompson,&lt;br /&gt;founders and ceo of © copyright BLESSED HANDS, INC.2003&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://essensepaula.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/essensepaula"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://shvoong.com/paula c. thompson"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14438047-112148311932195093?l=essensepaula.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112148311932195093'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112148311932195093'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://essensepaula.blogspot.com/2005/07/poison-questions-sessions-confessions.html' title=''/><author><name>essensepaula</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16087484885161170207</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/Paula%20explore.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14438047.post-112148267434750174</id><published>2005-07-15T22:50:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-07-20T18:51:39.433-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/JASMINE%20GUY%20&amp;%20PAULA%20COOK%20THOMPSON[1].jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/200/JASMINE%20GUY%20%26%20PAULA%20COOK%20THOMPSON%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;JASMINE GUY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a pleasure of meeting JASMINE GUY. She's an exciting and interesting person. She's very warm hearted and caring. Jasmine is a hard worker and enjoys what she does. She just be her self, don't put on no airs!!!!! I enjoy talking with her....I could feel her spirit...she really wants you to be comfortable around her. Jasmine is a serious minded person; searching on how she could help someone. She also has a different journey and mission to fulfill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jasmine has written a soul searching book with Topacs mother whom live in Stone Mountain. They just keep it real in the book, curse if she wants too, what ever makes this book so real. Evolution of a Revolutionary; a BOOK you can't forget. Topacs mother tell the story on how she grew up in hard times and as she tells the story, she relives what happens. Now, that can be hard, I do understand, because I 've gone through that process of reliving something that was bad happening also. Jasmine was very warm, understanding and took in everything that she was saying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While they were talking, they enjoyed the dish of collard greens, corn bread and fried chicken. Wow!!!!!!!!! that sounds good. Jasmine would talk with her often to get plenty of the story. Then Jasmine would write it, which became her first book. I am still reading the book, I don't won't to put it down, as they talk in this book, I can feel their spirits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder what Jasmine going to write next? Well, Jasmine is 41, married with one child and still looking healthy and beautiful as ever. She was living in New York, maybe moving to Atlanta. I wish her the best, I enjoy watching her perform...she is wonderful and outstanding actress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jasmine also keep her private life to herself and that is great!!! You need some privacy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jasmineguy.org"&gt;www.jasmineguy.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;COPYRIGHT 2005 Blessed Hands, Inc.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14438047-112148267434750174?l=essensepaula.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112148267434750174'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112148267434750174'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://essensepaula.blogspot.com/2005/07/jasmine-guy-what-pleasure-of-meeting.html' title=''/><author><name>essensepaula</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16087484885161170207</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/Paula%20explore.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14438047.post-112148045195909406</id><published>2005-07-15T22:04:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-07-15T22:20:51.966-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/NC200%20front%20(white).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/200/NC200%20front%20%28white%29.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/IMG013-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/200/IMG013-1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/nests.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/200/nests.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PEACHES BIRD HOUSE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a story about a little girl whose bird is a angel.

Zapping for that closure; torments are not easy , but I get over it. God has THE key, you just got to know how to use it. The FAVOUR is in God's Hands. He created the TREASURES, it's up to us to get this key. We have to keep building bridges. I AM AN OVER COMER; AN OVER COMER THAT I AM!!! I will not waste these precious moments. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. We have to keep it lit by the WORDS of GOD. Don't lose Focus, just keep moving and holding on; holding on to your DREAMS AND TO YOUR FUTURE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GOD BLESS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poem written by the Holy Ghost and Paula Thompson&lt;br /&gt;(05-02-03)&lt;br /&gt;Copyright © Blessed Hands, Inc.2003&lt;br /&gt;Sheldon &amp; Paula Thompson, Founders &amp;amp; CEO&lt;br /&gt;comments email: blessedhandsinc2003@yahoo.com&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/14438047-112147932923714450?l=essensepaula.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112147932923714450'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/14438047/posts/default/112147932923714450'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://essensepaula.blogspot.com/2005/07/who-am-i-over-comer-over-comer-that-i_15.html' title=''/><author><name>essensepaula</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16087484885161170207</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/Paula%20explore.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14438047.post-112147822260412217</id><published>2005-07-15T21:36:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2005-07-15T21:43:42.606-04:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/1600/Paula%20%28CNN%20CENTER%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5683/1306/200/Paula%20%28CNN%20CENTER%29.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eagle Wings&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A natural born leader&lt;br /&gt;never hangs with a crowd. We are always alone and thinking. We don't run with the chickens. We don't have time to play games not listen to a bunch of junk. We are special in our own way. We pay our way through the hard times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're always giving and not receiving. Most of us are very wealthy and healthy. We believe in what we don't see and not what we do see. We have an attitude check daily. We love people and have many great followers. Leaders are always on the mountain top going through the depths of fear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Poem written by the Holy Ghost &amp; Paula M.
