Do it anyway

April 30, 2020April 27, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

Don't let the idea of starting, scare you into not starting. You have to begin somewhere, and usually, it's at the bottom. Besides, it's better to start out low and work your way up, than to be on top and get knocked down. I know you want people to support you, as did I. However, … Continue reading Do it anyway

Yes, you can

April 29, 2020April 27, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

You don't have the resources to start a business, so you don't move forward. You want to go back to school, but you're not sure where to start, so you just quit. You want to buy a house, but your credit is low and you don't have the down payment. There are so many things … Continue reading Yes, you can

A different agenda

April 28, 2020April 28, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

For two years, I practically begged this well-known Editor, to allow me to not only write a post for her column, but to become a permanent staff writer on the team. I'd given her samples of my work (my best work at that) and still, no response. I know one would think, after a few … Continue reading A different agenda

Covered

April 27, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

I'm still in a state of shock, and can't believe this has somehow managed to become our "new normal". I thought it so bizarre and strange when Michael Jackson used to wear a face mask and gloves out in public, but who knew we'd have to one day do the same. The things we used … Continue reading Covered

The Return

April 23, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

The number one thing that most people dread, particularly women, is going to the store to return an item they bought. Rather than go through the hassle of standing in line for a refund, they instead choose to keep what they have, even though it doesn't fit. I'm sure all of us can relate to … Continue reading The Return

Look no further

April 22, 2020April 21, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

When we want approval, we look to others. When we want advice, we look to others. When we want assurance, we look to others. When we want a way out, we look to others. When we want to be happy, we look to others. We've given people so much control and responsibility over our lives, … Continue reading Look no further

Departed

April 21, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

Out of all the things that could happen in the world, you didn't see this coming. Because you were for certain they'd always be there, you never gave thought to their departure or planned for it, and now you're lost without them. Besides, you just knew they'd be around forever. But, what if forever was … Continue reading Departed

Glad

April 20, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

No matter what's going on in the world, I'm glad that we're still a part of it. Despite me working remotely, I'm just glad to be working, because a lot of people are unemployed. Chaos surrounds us and things looks as though they are quickly going from bad to worse, but I'm glad that our … Continue reading Glad

Now is not the time

April 19, 2020April 18, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

I want to be married, right now! I want a set of identical twin girls, right now! I want my house built from the ground up, right now! I want to be an Academic Dean, right now! I want to cut the ribbon for the grand opening of my business, CH1 Bookstore and Lounge, right … Continue reading Now is not the time

Get it together

April 18, 2020April 18, 2020 by Deetra La'Rue, posted in Uncategorized

"Get yo sh** together", are the words my friend so "delicately" told me. Although I'm being facetious, he was for real. During one of our many private conversations, I expressed to him some desires of my heart. While he didn't think they were unreasonable, he felt as though the timing was just not right (more … Continue reading Get it together

Let’s TALK! Conversations that need to be had, but often go undone

Paperback book

A lot of times, we avoid having "difficult conversations" with our family, friends and colleagues, because we don't want to hurt their feelings. Not wanting to be the "bad guy", we side-step discussions that could potentially cause a lot of heartache and pain, out of fear of stepping on one's toes. However, people need to know that they are not alone in their situation, no matter how difficult it may be. Your life experiences, encouragement and words of wisdom, is the very thing they need to hear to get them through their dark days. They'll never know "that things will get better", or "time heals all wounds", unless you say, "Let's TALK"!
