Apparently Whoopi was not too happy with Wendy Williams after she had  some really mean things to say about Whoopi and her daughter. Wendy had reportedly said that Whoopi looked like a monkey and was a drug addict. She also had reportedly accused Whoopi’s daughter, Alex of having a cocaine addiction. Wow!  Those are some pretty horrible things to say about someone…  but after years of feuding, Whoopi agreed to be a guest on Wendy Williams talk show. It seemed that guilt had really set in because before Whoopi made it to the couch Wendy starts tearing up . Whoopi was very cordial toward Wendy and seemed to really forgive the things that were said. Although Whoopi made it very clear that she did not agree with Wendy’s choice of words, she seemed to be more than willing to keep the past in the past and showed sincere empathy toward Wendy.

I absolutely love this story… Kudos to both Whoopi and Wendy for stepping up and showing such maturity. It’s so easy to hold a grudge but it takes a big person to forgive. After all, everyone makes mistakes and if you can’t forgive others for their faults u can’t expect others to forgive you for yours. LIVE. LOVE. LAUGH.

Resolution – illusion!!

I went to the gym today and got PISSED; can’t use the treadmill, can’t get on the bench, couldn’t do curls… Damn!!! Now please don’t get me wrong, I’m for making resolutions, or goals, that involve true commitment – like you know half these people won’t be here January 21, 2010, right? OK so dare I say my frustration lies in the fact that I felt worthless at the gym today OR are my resolutions different than most?

I entitled this post “resolution – illusion” because most people set themselves up for failure because they lack discipline and faith… Go to the gym, burn the calories… I applaud! Save more money, find a mate, pray more, etc… I applaud… BUT, stick with it!!!

What are your resolutions (or short term goals) for 2010 – Jay Z said “I’m making short term goals when the weather folds…” (Just felt like throwing that in there – just came to mind LOL!!! But really think about that, you can accomplish way more by setting yourself up with many short term goals than one huge goal to be accomplished by, last say 12/29/10!!! So if you wanna make extra money, write yourself checks (small ones – $1K tops) to cash in one or two month ahead… Set yourself a date for your ideal weight, set yourself a goal date to get the keys to your new home, and know, with each goal you will have to adjust your attitude to determine the outcome of these goals… This shit takes maturity and discipline.

Can I be real? I loathe hearing “I have resolution to…” Man to accomplish them shits have a resolution to grow up first!!! Just saying!!!
