afro-art-chick: “Age is getting to know all the ways the world...

“Age is getting to know all the ways the world turns, so that if you cannot turn the world the way you want, you can at least get out of the way so you won’t get run over.”

”It’s a really unfair world because life is, where I am; all day long we listen to American music. So I don’t see why the radios in the U.S. cannot even put aside one hour a day just to play music that is not American.”

“You are damned and praised, or encouraged or discouraged by those who listen to you, and those who come to applaud you. And to me, those people are very important.”

“Everybody now admits that apartheid was wrong, and all I did was tell the people who wanted to know where I come from how we lived in South Africa. I just told the world the truth. And if my truth then becomes political, I can’t do anything about that.

“I look at an ant and I see myself: a native South African, endowed by nature with a strength much greater than my size so I might cope with the weight of a racism that crushes my spirit.”

Happy 81st Birthday to South African-born singer & civil rights activist, Miriam Makeba also known as ‘Mama Africa’ and the ‘Empress of African Song’. (b. March 4, 1932 – d. November 9, 2008)

A Mother’s love is something that no one can explain, It...

A Mother’s love is something

that no one can explain,

It is made of deep devotion

and of sacrifice and pain,

It is endless and unselfish

and enduring come what may

For nothing can destroy it

or take that love away …

It is patient and forgiving

when all others are forsaking,

And it never fails or falters

even though the heart is breaking …

It believes beyond believing

when the world around condemns,

And it glows with all the beauty

of the rarest, brightest gems …

It is far beyond defining,

it defies all explanation,

And it still remains a secret

like the mysteries of creation …

A many splendoured miracle

man cannot understand

And another wondrous evidence

of God’s tender guiding hand.

I’m talking to the Lord today,

Asking Him to bless you in every way.

Your birthday is a heartfelt day for me,

Because you’ll own my heart eternally.

Lord, please care for my sweet, loving mother,

Who gives so much and is unlike any other.

Give her peace and happiness and more;

Love her, Lord; my mom, whom I adore

Maman, I say to you that:

God rejoices in your life.

He believes in you…

watches over you…

and tenderly keeps you in His constant care.

You are highly valued and loved!

May God reveal the many blessings He has in store for you

as he adds another year to your life!

“Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are…
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow.
One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in my pillow, or
stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return.”
