There are movies and then there are movies....
Before you've seen some, you wonder what all the 'buzz' is really all about.
For instance me and The Slumdog Millionaire phenomenon.
Which really had me intrigued and wondering....
Until I saw it tonight.
For it really is all that has been talked about. And more!
Showing you what Hope is about, and how even the lowest of the low, (in this instance, the 'Slumdog' )can rise and win..
Against all odds. Leaving all of us with the thought that it really is 'Hope and faith' that keep the world moving.
Or then movies like this one, which tell a story that really needed to be told.

Faith and Prayer
When nothing else works, faith does....
To that end there is a means..
Prayer and Faith
We only need to look around us or discuss with friends and family
And we will hear of imnnumerable instances when people were searching for answers,which didn't come easy.
So when nothing else worked, they turned to Prayer.
Or when people close to them were unwell, in some instances seriously.
So what did they turn to?
Prayer and Faith.
For sometimes in life we may all come across situations when Medicine and surgery is not the final answer.
That is really the time when the most well renowned surgeons worlwide also recommmend that
Prayer and Faith in God work like nothing else does....

Obama- Great to have you as 'Prez'
Yesterday, we sat glued to our television screens, as did the rest of the world.
Waiting and watching as Barack Hussaian Obama was sworn in as the 44th President of the United States of America..and history was made as the first 'Black' president of the US will now live and work in the 'White' House.
Strange as it may seem, one of the predominat thoughts in my mind, watching him give his Inaugural speech was that the spirit of Martin Luther King, as well as many thousands of people who lost their lives in the Civil Rights movement would actually have been smiling,wherever they were at that moment.
For all that they had fought for and all that they had desired was unfolding on that Podium off Washington Square.
When a young(ish)Black man took the oath of the President of that same country.
Where slaves who were penned at night, built that same 'White House', brick by brick...
Obama we expect a lot from you, so make that change (that the world is looking towards you for)- happen
