Think and grow RICH! and Happy!
Faith is the head chemist of the mind. When faith is blended with the vibration of thought, the subconscious mind instantly picks up the vibration, translates it into its spiritual equivalent, and transmits it to Infinite Intelligence, as in the case of prayer.

Relationship Rules... →
Human beings crave intimacy, need to love and be loved. Yet people have much trouble doing so.

From many sources and many experts,...

If you are feeling good, it is because you are thinking good thoughts. You see,
you can have whatever you want in your life, no limits. But there's one catch:

So, we had our own conversation about education at the Mamas Gone Wild Live Blog Party Sunday night as we watched Soledad O’Brien’s CNN special “Education in America: Don’t Fail Me.”
Even though Soledad didn’t really explore many of the issues black parents deal with - violence in schools, vouchers, low test scores, etc. - the discussion on the live blog covered those topics and...
When A Woman Makes Her Man: Michelle Obama
via @ZaraGreen
Here’s the ultimate demonstration of how a woman’s use of her powers can build a man. Indulge me as I share this story:
One night President Obama and his wife Michelle decided to do something out of routine and go for a casual dinner at a restaurant that wasn’t too luxurious. When they were seated, the owner of the restaurant asked the president’s secret service if he could...

It’s the first big holiday weekend of the year, so get your beach blankets and barbecue grills together because it’s on!
