Hey Global Grind fam... Just saying what's up and sharing with you something I have recently been thinking about super hard. I know it's kinda random and out of the blue, but I've really been thinking about how as individuals of all and any race we seem to be so quick to put our own people down. Now, I'm not saying that everyone does it but lately I've seen it more and more. It really bothers me that outside of a family that most people are so quick to judge one another whether its by appearance or even a career.

I just feel that as people we need to all come together and support one another. Be a person who encourages others not one who is quick to talk mess about other people around you (not a HATER). When is the last time you complimented someone? How about helping not ignoring someone when they fall but being there to help them out when they do.

I just believe that we all need to become more supportive in anyway possible. It may sound a little confusing to you right now, but really think about it. When you give by helping others, it all comes back to you at the end of the day. The energy you give out is the energy you get back. You ever wonder why you are not getting something done? Perhaps it is because you haven't been giving. Basically, my point to all of this is to make sure you always lending a hand in your life. Especially to someone that you wouldn't normally do something for.

I'm not talking about anything big, a small compliment could change someones whole day. Being a good persons means making someone else feel good.

Share what you can :)

Anyways, I just had to vent and get that off my mind... I'm sorry I don't blog too often but my days have been super busy. I have been flying around endlessly...SHEESSH. lol. Actually, I just landed back home in LA last night and finally have sometime to myself. I've been spending a lot of QT with the fam and my bf :) Oh yeah, tons of work but must say that I am super blessed and happy with the way life is looking and couldn't ask for more.

My sister and I are super blessed to have a new season of Daddy's Girls which premieres tonight at 10pm on MTV. It comes on every Tuesday, same time so don't miss it! Funny but I actually haven't seen any of them yet but excited about tonight's episode. To top it all off our Pastry line is doing super good! Vanessa and I just came off a quick 3 day bus tour which was a lot of fun for me and all of our friends.

Ok well..I'm not going to talk too much. Thanks for reading :)

Don't forget to tune in tonight!

love,

Angela :)

I am a girl that came from nothing and im not afraid to dream. I am a single mother that wants so much out of life and it seems like everytime i find myself getting somewhere the people around me always wants to be negative. I want to be wealthy so that my daughter doesnt have to go through the things that i went through growing up. These people nowadays dont care about no one but themselves, they dont want to see any one prosper if they have more than them than they want to talk about that person or call them fake cuz they wnat something out of life. When i stop hanging out with the girls that i use to hang with all they did was talk about me and call me fake because i want to go somewhere in life. i dont want to live in a lowincome apt all my life i want to own a home drive a nice car put my baby through school. it is very hard to succed in life with other some kind of support. i know all about it but one thing for sure i am determined to leave this life of poverty and move on to bigger and better things. Oh yea and i love your mother she is inspirational i love to watch runs house because i dream to have a family like that where everyone can be happy and go one to live happy lives and be succesful

I think that in society we dont see color. I think that we now stereotype now based on material things. Now a days u can b black nd hate on another black person bcause they have something that they dont. Its sad bcause there was a day where u stod up for where u come from nd u have respect 4 all those that come from the same place.

I use Jews all the time in this instence... they look out 4 1another no matter wat. They abtain wealth bcause they always support 1 another instead of hatin on 1 that has more then most.

i jus feel that we all should jus b more Christ like nd encourage in opposed 2 bein negative 2wards ppl of ur own race, especially races who have been oppressed in past history.

Thanks for that Angela! Unfortunately in todays society: It's about DOG EAT DOG! Thats the world we live in. And no matter what, people will just continue being people. But I appreciate the thought and advise. Peace.

Good day Angela,

I really like your family and show. I often feel sad for families that watch your show trying to dream in your shoes. You and your family are truly blessed. I said all of that to say. I have a business plan that has grabbed the right people’s attention but, I really need investors to help us get the funds together in order to have a huge start in the bringing out of this new program. Many families can benefit from this program. 17 different jobs can be obtained in a verity of states across the USA but, it all comes down to money.

Please help us, help someone else. There are people all across our country that need our help, people like;

Comment 7 Felicia,

I hope she doesn't feel I am putting here on blast but, this is what it takes some times to get things moving, humiliation! GOD works in was we do not always understand until we start caring. Lets blog about how we can help our world become better. Our children have a future to prepare for so let’s make it happen, for every fourcloused home leaves a displaced family. Now, parents with bad credit can’t only get a house they cannot get some good paying job as well. We must do something!

If you have the spirit I believe you have, step forward and aide SSIG NORTH LLC. To take back our streets, let’s make them safe again!

Please call if you have any questions!

Some people love confusion and like to see others in pain because that's what they are feeling. "Hater" is the word for it. I've been waiting for "Daddy's Girls" to air a new show...I love it! You and your sister remind me of my two adult kids but without the money..They are working on it!!

People do criticize others, but is it constructive criticism? Is there something I need to work on? Whats wrong with a healthy debate? Sometimes it can be so horrible to have all yesmen around you and people who tell you what you want to hear. Its like Randy Pauch said
"When you see yourself doing something badly and nobody’s bothering to tell you anymore, that’s a very bad place to be. Your critics are your ones telling you they still love you and care".
