WAY TO GO OBAMA

Wow! We did it. We came together to assist in making a change in this world.
I am so exciting, of the change, of the history that has been made right before my very eyes.
This is a new way to look at the changes unfold, as we watch our FIRST african american president step forward with such dignity and respect to serve our country in such a way that will bring change.
Not only has history been made, but so many children have gotten involved in our public schools to take the responsibility of wanting to interact in this great election. Yall I don't know bout you, but when I see our youth interesting in something so important as this. It just makes me so proud. The children are our future. And there future looks mighty bright.

God bless Obama as he goes on his journey as the President of the United States Of America!
YES YOU CAN!
YES WE CAN!
AND YES HE DID!

Congrats Obama, we are behind you..

Shametra Answer's











So!
I have been asked many questions, some I have been asked that I was not prepared to answer and some I have asked on the run. For instance I am in the cereal aisle at HEB ( by the way I was purchasing my favorite- raisin brand crunch) LOL! , and I am asked are you the one that wrote the book that we saw in Ujima magazine? I heard you on the radio when you did your interview. So can you tell me how you published your book?
Basically these types of conversations have their scheduled time and dates. I don't mind at all..
There is a time and place for everything. I just recently met with a couple and they were so nice, we talked for about 2 hours, I had a friend that introduced us, and we scheduled a time and date to sit down and talk about the publishing world. After it was all said, the three of us concluded with a very enlightening conversation about the blood, sweat and tears that it took to even produce the book.
So.....
I would like to take this opportunity to answer any of your questions and to get feedback of what you thought about the book.
In my opinion constructive criticism is vital to help you grow. Sometimes it may not be what you want to hear, but once you reflect on it, it's edifying to your spirit..
Hey that's just my opinion.
If you want to be a good teacher, you have to be an outstanding student. By practicing effective listening and duly noting what can eventually make a change in your life.

So with that said peeps, let's hear it.

Peace and love
