What Are Your Actual Thoughts On Abortion?

What Are Your Actual Thoughts On Abortion?

I woke up on Sunday morning and read an article on Huffington Post (that I now cannot find) about late term abortion. Recently, abortions - especially late term abortions - have been popular in the news. If you had asked me eons ago how I felt about abortion, I would have been very quick to give you an answer. I would have said, it's a sin ... don't do it ... it's murder ... I would never do it. And if you had asked me how I felt about late term abortion, I would have said very, very quickly Read More

A while ago, I told you about the strawberry cheesecake bars from FiberOne, but I did Read More

Hunger Is Us. All Of Us.

And that's exactly what I thought too. I thought that everything was great here. I'll never forget that day I saw my former high school mate begging on the street. It's an image and an experience that I am yet to forget. He was all American. Not a naturalized citizen, but a born one, from two Read More

I Need Your Help Desperately For My Niche

I Need Your Help Desperately For My Niche

My people, I need your help. Urgently and desperately. As you know, I have registered Verastic as a business, but that's only the beginning as there is so much more to do. For starters, I need to define, establish, and understand my niche and my Sweet Potatoes. I'm working on a lot of things, and I'll be telling you about them as time goes on. I'm a little frustrated right now that I don't have the time I need to do everything I need to do. But I'm trying. I apologize for the times that it takes Read More
