		<title>I need a new pair of shoes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hey world! It&#8217;s been awhile since I&#8217;ve blogged. I&#8217;ve had lots of things on my mind lately and I thought I&#8217;d share one of them. Once again, I want to pull a quote from Iyanla Vanzant&#8217;s Acts of Faith:
When we convince ourselves that we can&#8217;t find the right mate, we try to make the one [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=83&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>What a tragic loss. Michael, we&#8217;ll miss you!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All day I have been watching Michael Jackson YouTube videos, listening to his playlists on Napster, watching CNN, listening to marathon&#8217;s on the radio and looking at friend&#8217;s comments on Facebook. But no matter how much joy I get from recalling all his hits and all the memories he created for me growing up, I [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=76&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Tough Love&#8221; ain&#8217;t easy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;ve been watching a new reality show, Tough Love, on VH1 and surprisingly it&#8217;s very entertaining. Basically, there are 8  women that are looking for love but have yet to find a man. Their issues run the gamut, from the desperate to the insecure, to the icy.  The host, a professional matchmaker, takes these [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=57&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>A moment in history</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am still in awe of what I witnessed yesterday. I&#8217;m normally not a person that cries easily but the tears were flowing as President Obama took his oath. I couldn&#8217;t help but think about the implications of the event. After years and years of slavery, then Jim Crow, then covert discrimination, yesterday was truly [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=52&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>I am a Phoenix&#8230;enuf! We get it!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok. I&#8217;m getting sorta sick of seeing all the &#8220;I am a Phoenix&#8221; ads from the U of Phoenix. I don&#8217;t know why I&#8217;m getting so annoyed because I do marketing/advertising for a living. But I think there might be such a thing as overkill. Over the past few weeks, I&#8217;ve definitely gotten more than [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=45&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Life is about choices</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was just thinking that sometimes in life we have to make tough decisions. Sometimes those decisions may initially hurt another individual, but we have to be mindful of our own well being. Just recently I had to make a decision that I&#8217;m sure crushed another individual. It crushed me, too. I had to do [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=43&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Wedding bells</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not my own, however&#8230;I went to a wedding today. I went there with every intention of just going thru the motions and drudging my way thru yet another ceremony. I was also waiting for the barage of questions: &#8220;When are you getting married?&#8221; or &#8220;Are you going to be next?&#8221; I only heard it about [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=34&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Only for a season</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately, I&#8217;ve been thinking about how sometimes people come into your life your only a short time, a season. Then suddenly they are gone. It reminds me of what I&#8217;ve read in Iyanla Vanzant&#8217;s book &#8220;Acts of Faith.&#8221;
When someone is in your life for a reason, it is usually to meet a need you have [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=emotionalidiot.wordpress.com&blog=3901231&post=31&subd=emotionalidiot&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
