Mary Patterson was a force. Smart, loving, beautiful, sharp dresser, accomplished , truth teller and down to earth.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I never forget the first time we met.<br>
Homecoming & Robin was a freshman.<br>
It was the morning after. Robin walks in the suite, Vickie these are my parents.<br>
I was mortified, liquor bottles and roaches every where.</p>
<p dir="ltr">She walked in with Pat and said I am Mary and this is Pat.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Cool as a fan. No judgement.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Fast forward, my many trips to New Jersey. They cooked breakfast on the grill.<br>
They had a great home and Amway.<br>
She was a council woman. I had never known one personally. I was amazed at how down to earth and authentic a politician could be.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I am very saddened for Robin and the Patterson Family. First their Aunt, their cousin, Scott and now Ms. Mary. They have lost their matriarch and Mr. Pat, his soul mate.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I have very fond memories of Ms. Mary. She was a jewel... simply a jewel.</p>
<p dir="ltr">#Rip Ms. Mary Patterson, sleep well and May God strengthen your family as they navigate this new normal.<br>

<p dir="ltr">Today, I followed up on a lead from my husband. I spoke to briefly. He put his colleague on. She was curt and to the point. She heard nothing and conveyed that I was a pest. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I felt some kind of way. She hung up on me. I FELT SOME KIND OF WAY!<br>
There is no reason to be rude in business. Abruptly ceasing a call...wow.<br>
Hanging up on me....wow.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The business knew. The owner and operation Manager apologized. <br>
I felt ok, but was it sincere.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Rudeness was the word of the day...not cool.</p>

Good morning all. I want to thank over 500 of my facebook friends for taking the time out of a traumatic day (for many ) and a joyous day for a few , to wish me a happy birthday. Thank you for the many text and calls.<br />Although, I did not wake up to the 1st woman President, I am proud of my fellow Scorpio Hillary Rodham Clinton, she broke the glass ceiling and although she lost, she conceded with class.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I had a wonderful birthday, simply because I am here to celebrate it.</div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; display: inline; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px;">
The donald is now the President and I will respect the office. I will also hold him accountable.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Folks who did vote, hold him accountable. Folks who did not vote, u now know that votes count more than twitter, instagram and protest.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I fully intend to be fully engaged. I will be engaged with my sorority on the regional level. With my friends on the local level. With my local board appointments on the local level. With my gubernatorial appointments at the state level.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Be not afraid. Be informed, be empowered and be engaged.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
To my Trumps supporters, this is a presidency and not a dictatorship. It is a government and not a private business, he cannot ramrod anything down the legislators throats.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
And oh by the way, he is the President of all the people...</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Love,</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">

Your vote is personal.<br />
Most people vote their values.<br />
A vote for Trump shows that you do not value diversity, women, elderly, poor, military, blacks, Latinos,&_lgtbq community.<br />
You value bullying over compromise.<br />
You value shouting over listening.<br />
You value decisiveness over inclusion.<br />
Oh, I hear you...Hillary is a crook..<br />

I am reading the "Greatest Salesman in the World, I am working on being more disciplined and less afraid of success.<br />
I want to mentor, I want to help, I want to be known as the best mediator in the world.<br />
I cannot do that being afraid.<br />

Today, I am taking steps towards being more disciplined about my business, more accountable about my goals and less afraid of the success that I deserve to have.<br />

Thankful to celebrate my love and reconnect with my high school classmates. <br>
We worked hard to create a memory. <br>
Hard.<br>
No matter the snafu, we overcame them.<br>
I created stronger and lovelier friendships with classmates that I lost contact with.<br>
35 yrs is a very very long time and people evolve .<br>
God has been kind and we have been touched by HIS grace.</p>

<p dir="ltr">I am exhausted and I have honored the exhaustion. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I completed an important project. <br>

Estelle Spencer was our neighbor. She soon became family. Smart, savvy, and loving. Nonnie was no nonsense. She was old school. She was the village. She watched out for your home, the neighborhood and your children.<br>
She was my Mom's best friend and our "grandmother". My brothers and I were special to her and she to us.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Now, she has transitioned on to Glory. Ms. Estelle, the Williams family were glad, we became your neighbors, thank you. Thank you for welcoming us into your heart and into your family. Thank you for your wisdom, love and belief in us. You had a huge impact and made a tremendous positive difference in my life, my brother's lives and many many other's in Hampton and NN.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Say Hi, to Bob and Ray C. for us.</p>
<p dir="ltr">We love and miss you. Rest in Peace.</p>

I started to plan again. I wrote down my dreams.<br>
I spent time with my sorors, bros, fellow Greeks and volunteered my time .<br>
Then , I got a call that an elder was dying. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Estelle Spencer came into my life when I was 9. She was our neighbor and my mom's best friend. She was there for my family and we were there for hers. She truly epitomized what a neighbor was. </p>
<p dir="ltr">She spoke her mind, was just nosey enough, she was strong willed and regulated the neighborhood. </p>
<p dir="ltr">She was a nanny, crab picker and real estate owner. She was kind and loving. She welcomed all into her home , including your dog. Lol.</p>
<p dir="ltr">When, my mom died, a part of her died too. They watched over each other. <br>
Yesterday, her granddaughter Kim, said she was talking to her family, who had passed on. She mentioned Bob, my mamma. She asked her to wait for her.</p>
<p dir="ltr">She is. Nonie as you begin your transition, be at peace, you have left a legacy of love, service, strength, wisdom and unwavering friendship.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Love, </p>

<p dir="ltr">We have viewed grown men being murdered by the police and viciousness from a presidential candidate. </p>
<p dir="ltr">But, what hurt my heart the most, was when a old friend's son was murdered on his way to work. </p>
<p dir="ltr">College sophomore on his way to his job, shot by unknown assailants.</p>
<p dir="ltr">This is a very scary time. We got to do something.  </p>
<p dir="ltr">Voters are apathetic about the candidates and threaten to stay home.  </p>
<p dir="ltr">This is a very scary time. We got to do something.  </p>
<p dir="ltr">If, you don't vote , you have given away your voice. You must be mindful,  that every congressional seat is up for reelection.  The supreme court appointment is up. We stayed home in 12 & we elected a obstructive congress. </p>
<p dir="ltr">We must fight police brutality,  we must fight systematic racism,  we must fight violence in our communities,  we must fight for equal rights, we must fight for a level playing field.</p>

<p dir="ltr">No, no, and no.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I do not advocate for police to be killed.<br>
I do not advocate for anyone to be killed.</p>
<p dir="ltr">These are two distinct separate issues.<br>

<p dir="ltr">Again, anger, fear, outrage and sadness has set in.</p>
<p dir="ltr">We talk, we March, we facebook and tweet; yet there is no change.</p>
<p dir="ltr">We pray, we scream, cry and wail; but nothing changes.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The police are sworn to protect and serve everyone, even people of color, even black folks. However, some don't. Some won't. </p>
<p dir="ltr">It's more then just registering to vote, it's more then voting; it is engaging with the powers to be of what we will and will not accept. </p>
<p dir="ltr">We must DEMAND CHANGE.<br>
We must STAND FAST, UNTIL OUR CHANGE IS IMPLEMENTED! </p>

The other day, I conducted a free coaching. </p>
<p dir="ltr">We have to remember that sometimes, we have to speak life into someone.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Sometimes, we have to encourage someone to look in a mirror and say : " I am amazing. "</p>
<p dir="ltr">Words are powerful and we have to share that power.</p>

Williams<p dir="ltr">My best dad memory was finally getting and understanding the sacrifice my dad made for his family. </p>
<p dir="ltr">When my brother got accepted to Hampton Institute, my father moved his entire family from Korea to Hampton. He sacrificed a booming career to ensure his son, had his family.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Wherever my father was stationed, he brought his family. He was only away for maybe a year, he would figure it out. Family was everything to my Dad. He wasn't perfect, far from it. </p>
<p dir="ltr">He did the best he could with what he had.<br>
He was a good man who loved his wife & his family and that was enough. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I love you Daddy and you done good.<br>
You raised good men and a confident daughter and that was the greatest success of all.<br>

This time LGQBT community. They were having fun, hurting no one, bothering no one...then a psychopath enters and kills 50 people.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Semi automatic. Former police/security guard...chose to kill instead of protect. This comes just after a young budding starlet was killed on Friday ,by a fan. .in Orlando by a psychopath in the city of Disney. </p>
<p dir="ltr">What are we doing, what are we doing? </p>
<p dir="ltr">Who I am, does not give you permission to bully or kill me. Who I am does not give you permission to denigrate me. Who I am<br>
Is my Right, respect it and respect Who I am.</p>

They never called me nigger."[7][8]<p dir="ltr">Muhammad Ali has died. Whewwwww. Another part of my childhood gone.<br>
My father was a huge boxing fan. He watched Muhammed Ali whenever he could. <br>
When, we got to Virginia, the tv fights were family events. Daddy yelling, cussing, smoking, drinking and laughing.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Muhammad and Howard Cossell. Muhammad and Frazier. Muhammed and Forman. His rhymes. His boldness. His unabashed blackness. He spoke out in a time and era when black men were killed for speaking out. </p>
<p dir="ltr">He threw away his gold medal. He lost his title, because he refused to be drafted. He lost millions. Yet, he stood his ground.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Muhammed Ali was more than a boxer, he changed how black men were thought of, he changed how black men thought of themselves. His impact to was immeasurable. His legacy unmatched. He was indeed the Greatest of All Time; simply cause a little black boy from Louisville, Kentucky named Cassuis Clay said he was.<br>
RIP to the GOAT.<br></p>
