The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood(Jameca D. Johnson)

The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood is Jameca D. Johnson! Jameca and I met of Facebook on a Melanated Breastfeeding Group. Not only did we hit it off immediately, we found out we had a lot in common. For starters she's a Chi-Town girl,and her belief in Shabbat and Abba Yah!!

We have tag teamed on a many of Facebook post on many different issues. Lol from the proper name of Yah,Culture,Shabbat,Diet,Breastfeeding and the like. Jameca's knowledge of Scripture and Self is inspirating. She's not one to just throw out words, however she backs up every word with Torah of facts. That is what caught my eye when we met.

She juggle multiple hat's making them all look like a breeze. From being a wife, mother,working in the medical field(and night's at that). She can still be found doing activities with her family, shuffling the babies around to their different destinations, all with a smile.

She was a teen mom,however she has displayed that regardless of  your situation you can defined the out come. Not only did she marry her love and daughters father, they are still happily married with a BEYOUITFUL few more addictions to the tribe! Talk about a T-R-U-E success story.

James you are a REAL trailblazer and an example of what hard work and dedication can achieve. I'm blessed to know ya,and have you in my Facebook SISTARhood! You are a breath of fresh air. Thanks for ALWAYS standing for truth and righteousness. May Abba Yah continue to bless the work of your hands. Thanks for being you,oh and Shabbat Shalom!

The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood(Shakti Steiner)

Today's The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood is Shakti Sterner! Shakti and I met on Facebook. She was interested in my holistic lifestyle etc. After a few conversation I found out she was into healing through Chakras which was something I had just started studying upon.

Shakti was a wealth of knowledge. From classes to radio shows she was doing it all. I was very much so impressed with all that she did on top of being a widow,and now having to raise her babies alone.

Then the opportunity of a lifetime came(for me anyway...lol). She told me she was coming up with an online magazine and would I be interested in doing Vegan recipes. Of course I said yes!!!

I feel blessed to have met Shakti! I love everything about her mission for Detroit, the movements she's apart of,and honored to have my four generations recipes for all the world to see. Thank uou, thank you Shahti for all you do,for your vision, to make the world a better place for our Seeds!! You my friend are definitely appreciate.

Positive Peer Influence

Shalom Y'all,
               Never underestimate the POSITIVE power and influence children can have on each other to eat healthy. Masai and I have been cooking for KC Dreams Academy. One of the scholar's he knew from Uzazi Village is apart of the program there.

Last week Masai picked some Red Leaf Lettuce for the scholar's lunch. After we prepared the meal,the children began to eat. His friend was eating everything but the lettuce... lol. So Masai walked over to him and said, you don't like the lettuce? The little boy said no not really.

Masai told him, I grew that lettuce all by myself. The young man replied you did,and ate it all. Today we had HayStacks for lunch. When the little boy saw the lettuce on his plate, he asked Masai if he grew that too. Masai told him yes I did. The little boy was like ok...lol. Not only did he eat ALL HIS Butter Crisp Lettuce, but he asked for seconds😊!!!!

The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood(Katina Robinson)

Today's The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood is Katina Robinson! I tried waiting and posting a few Sistar's before I did my  day #1. Katina is my little sister however people AWAYS think she's the oldest. However we are actually 18 months apart. Nonetheless I've from day one put myself more as a mother figure, then sister,I moved she moved...seriously.

Katina and I had a rough childhood,growing up  moving from state to state,for our mother to preach the good news. With little or no support from the organization she slaved for. As a result we went without a lot of things we should not have had to. So we did the best we could with what little we had.

Sometimes we were never in a place long enough to make friends, however we ALWAYS had each other. So our bond was/is pretty tight. From homelessness, hunger, and several other situations no child should be subject to. With the help of Abba Yah we made it through, even despite no real support but each other. Abuse, mental issuse,broken hearts,marriages that didn't last,to raising Sun's,regrouping, remaking ourselves,to adjust to whatevet environment we found ourselves in at that time. We're still STANDING!

From being told often we would NEVER amount to ANYTHING,or we would have a house full of kids(we've only had kids with our husbands). We didn't get the opportunity to finish High School(because of lost credits,poor Homeschool recording keeping)so we decided to instead get our GED. We never tell our story to gain sympathy form other's,but to let others know,your situation and circumstances don't defined your outcome.

So K.T. as I like to call her is my REAL LIFE SuperHero!!! I'm so PROUD of you Katina. I've seen you fighting hard to find your place in the world. Regardless of the many hats you've wore,you have had many roles l over the years as a mother, wife, daughter,friend,sister,lover,etc. Losing yourself in the process. Sometimes you have to lose yourself to find your TRUE self.

Keep searching K.T. keep seeking for truth,hold fast to yourself,don't change who you are,don't ever lose sight of those that love you,always stay connected to those who love you...fight for  what is true and just. I love you K.T.!!! I'm so proud of all that you are...my forever day 1💙💙💙!!!!

The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood(Dominique Hernandez Hall)

Today's The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood is my fur babies adoptive Mom Dominique!! Dominique and I met through a health page on Facebook, and the rest has been a beautiful connection. Especially when I found out she was a true round the way girl(her being from the Lou,and me from the Chi)!! Then to top that we both looooved us some Uno Pizza!!! Lol from that day on I know we were a match made in memory heaven.

I've been very impressed over the course of our relationship the growth and development, I've seen in Dominique has been hard on and for her,but life lessons to say the least. I am a PROUD big Sistar is an understatement.  I've seen the struggle with trying to find her grounding,and place not sure,unsure of where her next move was going to be. All the while still making it look classy and flawless.

She's been a good Mommy to my babies. She knew how hard it was to part with Shadow and Smokey(because #3 was highly allergic to cat hair). She stepped right in and loved them little fur ball. Keeping me up to date with tons of pictures, calls,post,text,and check-ins....lol.

Dominique I am so PROUD of you Ma. You are AMAZING,You ROCK,You are AWESOME, You are LOVED,You are VALUED,You have a BeYOUitful gift,to make people look,and feel their BEST!!! Like I've told you before, I can NEVER take the place of your people in the Lou,however you got people's in KC too. Light,Love,and Shalom,and keep SHINING BeYOUitful💙!!!!
