Giving Thanks

thanksgivingThe holiday season is here. I will be spending Thanksgiving with my family and taking time to thank God for all blessings. Some of those blessings have occurred right here.

I’ve been at this blog thing for a little over a year now and I am grateful to my regular readers and commenters who have continued to encourage me to write.

As I was sitting here reflecting on the past year I began to think about some of my favorite posts. They are my favorites because they have made you laugh out loud or managed to strike an emotional chord. Some received many hits and/or comments, some others…not so much.

So while you’re recovering from stuffing your face with turkey, escaping the seemingly never-ending football games, or recuperating from Black Friday shopping, take a few minutes and check out some of Chocl8t’s favorite posts.

 Happy Thanksgiving!!!! 😀

Resurgence

chocl8t3Webster’s defines resurgence as “a rising again into life, activity, or prominence“. That is pretty much how things have been for me as of late and I have welcomed the change.

I’m not sure why I retreated into my cocoon but it was not long after I moved into my current home about 7 years ago. If I was pressed to give an answer as to “why” I would tell you it was not one reason but a culmination of several things.

On the heels of some really intense drama in my life (more on this later), I began saving for the down payment of my current home and eliminated a lot of unnecessary and frivolous spending. This meant little to no hanging out subsequently and hanging out in the club scene in Atlanta had long ago lost its appeal. The few close friends I had at the time were newly married and their lifestyles differed from mine. In other words, they were “boo’d up” and I wasn’t in a steady relationship.

Barack The Vote!!

starsnstripesWe as a country have the opportunity to show the world we’re not just all talk when it comes to fair equal opportunity for all! Proving that no matter your background, race, or religion, if you work hard you can achieve anything. This man shows little young black boys across this nation there are other roads to success besides being a pro athlete or rap star. For the first time in my life I understand how one can be moved to tears.For those “anti” Obama critics who attempt to marginalize him and his supporters by calling him a “messiah”…don’t underestimate a man that can inspire hope and call to action millions of people who are tired of the same old status quo.

Now that I’m done being mushy…I watched the following video and cracked up. I squealed loudly with laughter at several points. I won’t spoil it so enjoy it for yourself!!

Get out and VOTE!!
