GODFATHER OF GO-GO CHUCK BROWN 1936-2012
Charismatic Godfather of Go-Go Music CHUCK BROWN left LIFE’S Mere Mortal Stage for The Eternal Life’s Immortal Stage at the age of 75. The feeling right now is indescribable for me. Chuck Brown impacted not only generations but Chocolate City Washington DC, to Maryland, to Virginia also known as DMV. Through touring, for the love of this genre of music Go-Go with some Blues, Soul, some Funk Godfather Chuck Brown impacted past those state lines in the realest way. For me, those who know me I am a ‘Go-Go’ Music lover.
Blessed I tell you, so blessed to have witnessed for myself, deep in the crowd of others who adored him so – Blessed to have seen Chuck Brown in concert. The interacting with the crowed, the band that flanked him, flanking him well, the generations growing up on his music… truly it felt like THE AIR AND SOUND LEFT as the news came of A GREAT ONE transitioning. He didn’t mind sharing the stage, engaging the crowd, just making people feel good. This is why many show their love at the news of his passing and believe tributes are on the way.
LOCK IT IN FOR TONIGHT’S LOLITA’S BLISS ENTERTAINMENT REPORT as I show love to CHUCK BROWN. The mourning will be vast but like others CHUCK WOULD WANT US TO CONTINUE PLAYING THE MUSIC, enjoying the legacy of love he left through the music and pass it on to other generations. So join me as I pay tribute tonight, the least I like others can do for a man named CHUCK BROWN, The Godfather who gave so much. May the family of this wonderful man find peace in the days, to weeks, to months, to years – to come.
Love Ya Chuck,
BEBE

RED TABLE TALKS | JADA PINKETT SMITH And Illustrious Company
Just in time for Mother’s Day ‘Red Table Talks’ comes our way. This moment is appreciative on all levels for me. It resonated something so great within me, an affirmation of sorts. Jada Pinkett Smith get’s Up Close And Personal with her daughter Willow and mother Adrienne Banfield Jones. They take on various questions, I feel it is done in a way that is effective. Reflection is easy to say, but not always easy to do. If you cannot find some ‘flawed’ version of yourself through your life no matter how grand your life may be to you, you aren’t ‘Reflecting’. Reflecting, putting the ‘raw’ emotions out there is just a release that so many people need, don’t think they need, don’t even know they need. In the moment of Jada and her Illustrious Company of women- daughter and mother, they found their ‘moment’.
How one chooses to use words on their faith, their beliefs truly I don’t get caught up in that hype. I like to focus on the nature of what a great moment this was and how appreciative I am Jada chose to share this moment with the public. I found it powerful because in my family we have these moments and it’s good to have these moments in a continual fashion. Aside from this moment if you are ILL at wordings on beliefs – referring to comments I’ve seen on other media entities certainly your focus isn’t on the bigger picture.
I can see the fiery spirit Jada get’s from her mother. In her mother I see the fiery more mature wisdom Jada will soon get in her own time. The connection is there and as Willow get’s more older she will come into her own just as others have. Who else enjoyed this discussion that I am sure once the lights are dimmed will be more intense?
*select picture to view video in separate window
Grandiose on ‘flawed’ is not what I am trying to focus on but to revisit on a ‘Reflective Nature’, to finally let some ‘Chickens come home to roost’ on subjects avoided, you get your ‘moment’. It will be the moment of ’how I go over’ a particular subject that needed to be stated, it will be a moment of opening up the communication to other unexplored topics. Having conversations where there is no barrier to hide behind or feel ‘fish out of water’ is important for the conversation to be meaningful, beneficial.
Sometimes we hold on to things, because we feel we aren’t worthy to let them go. This was a moment Jada’s mother spoke upon. Not only does that happen in her situations it happens to many women. You get to a point that, maybe I could have done this better ( your moral code is shining ) when others felt you did the best in their eyes. It’s all relative. Even with Jada speaking upon her moments of being a wife/mother yes that can be overwhelming where you lose some of yourself and at some point upon ‘Reflection’ of the deepest sense of the word, you get back to ‘Self’.
May we as Women find time to have our own ‘Red Table Talks’ our own more familiar territory ‘Waiting To Exhale’ talks that doesn’t revolve around just a man, love, sex but on a broader spectrum. How can I.. the “I” should have it… How can I be a better me, be better to someone else… How can I…. How can I… the I of a selfless nature. May we as Women find ourselves at a point in our lives to be ‘free’ of tearing each other down as Women. When you find that confidence in self, when you find that maturity in self, when you acknowledge the ‘work in progress’ then you can be less of ’tear down’ and more of a ‘build up’. May we as Women take moments out of lives to just have THE TALK, with our family, to our friends and from there to others – which takes me back to the point of being better to someone else.
Fortunate in my relationship with my Mother who is now the Matriarch in her family we have a really good relationship. She instilled in me I could come to her about anything, instilled in me no question was stupid, just the thinking it through, how it is presented was important. I am blessed like others to have had some ‘Illustrious Company’. Before their transition, I had on my Mother’s side of the family, my mother, my grandmother and my great-grandmother. I was blessed to have them in life til an adult. My great-grandmother transitioned to the spiritual life when I was 29 years old at the age of 109, my grandmother transitioned when I was 38 years old. What conversations we had, what affirmations given that remains with me, gifts true gifts that today helps me along my ‘Life’s Journey’. With one grandmother living in the physical realm today on my paternal side, my beautiful, wise, fiery afro-cuban grandmother I would say, along with her, my mother, aunts, cousins still… still… still… Still I am in Illustrious Company. I am sure others can say the same, how very blessed are we. No doubt about it, none at all.
Mother’s Day over the years has taken on a ‘beautiful’ tone and I love it for it’s ‘beautiful tone’. Mother’s come in all forms, for giving birth is not enough to say you are a ‘Mother’. It is deeper than that. To those who have given birth, from there became a ‘Mother’ in the pure sense of the word through actions, lifestyle living, moral code, each one teach one, this is good. To those who have not given birth but a ‘Mother Figure‘ in the realest way, changing lives, being the ‘Rock’ one can come to, this is good. It takes all kinds of GOOD MOTHERS to set the world aflame in a way that is prosperous for mankind.
May your Mother’s Day be filled with Good Vibes. Even if your Mother and Mother Figures aren’t in the physical realms, if of the belief as I they are ever near just only in the spiritual realms. May your life be the kind of life you can be proud of and others can take something from it to enhance their own no matter the measure, no contest just pure connection. Have those talks, communication is key in forward movement in your family. Jada’s Red Table Talk will be shown in it’s entirety May 13. From me, to you and yours, HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY.

MET GALA 2012 IN PICTURES AND WORDS
The Met Gala is often referred to as ‘The Oscar-esque Fashion Show’. Monday in New York City was the Official Buzzing on the attendees and WHO WORE WHAT. Staying true to fashion, the ‘Night of Fashion’ didn’t disappoint on an overall review. Deja Vu U A.D. presents in pictures and words The Bebe Davis review of The Met Gala Fashion.
press play for ♫ music as you review The Deja Met Gala Review
The Costume Institute Gala held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday Night brought out ’The Celebrated’ in Industry Land. Beyonce’ arrived on the Red Carpet enveloped in Givenchy haute couture. The Givenchy Beyonce’ wore was met with mixed reviews. BEBE REVIEW: No Bueno, on Beyonce’ even with my love for Givenchy. Beyonce’ is not giving me ‘peacock’ but she’s giving me ‘parrot’.
This gown is making all kinds of noise for the wrong reasons on such a Diva. I don’t even have my Parrot Bay ‘Freeze and Squeeze’ Pina Colada to sip on. Can we all forgive Beyonce’? Yes we can because after all if we roll with the costume theme of the evening, she was thinking along these lines I assume. Kudos for a killer body Post Baby Blue Ivy’s arrival. Beyonce choice wasn’t her best/elección de Beyonce no era lo mejor.
Rihanna was RAVISHING in the Croc Tom Ford gown. BEBE REVIEW: Rihanna was wearing the dress, not the dress wearing Rihanna/Rihanna llevaba el vestido, no llevaba el vestido de Rihanna. Rihanna could have pulled the look at 100% if not for the failed hair. Deets say she was delayed from arriving on time due to the nails that are so fierce but hey killer bod, in a killer dress, makes up for most that was less to be desired. Envy love on that body and dress.
Tom Brady and Supermodel Wife Giselle were STUNNING at The Met Gala. Whisper, Whisper, Talk , Talk, yes Tom Brady is rocking a ‘New Do’, love it, yes I do. Others are calling the haircut ‘curious’ oh behave. I smirk and toss my own huge wild mane back with a glass of…. H2O and a plate of my famous paella. I love men with shoulder length hair to long hair especially when they pull it off right. To me Tom Brady looks great either way. Now… let’s talk about Giselle.
Giselle in Givenchy, Sexy, Classy,Giselle is divine/ Giselle es divino. Giselle is wearing this dress as it should be for every woman. You wear the dress, not the other way around. If you look at many of the women attending the Gala, they are showing their faces. Love the pull back looks for this season.
Rosario Dawson, una hermosa mujer de color latina, worked this Calvin Klein stunner. The details on this gown is admired. Clean lines, the kind of gown where you ‘OWN THE LOOK’. Rosario the earring choice would have been great if the eyes were played up to match. IMO.
Had to give you another view…. Rihanna es el fumar caliente.
Katherine McPhee in Elie Saab is NOICE with it…
Emma Roberts is definitely on her ‘age appropriateness’ flair and I love that. Emma is wearing Escada. The color is lovely for her skintone.
Not everyone can pull off ‘Red’ but First Daughter Chelsea Clinton did in Oscar de la Renta. Classic designer, classic styled gown, risque n rogue red. Bravo!
Emma Stone in LAVIN, fun look, along with her vibe loved it
Gwyneth Paltrow in Prada works for her, she has the body to work this dress. The fresh face helps complete the look. Some fashionista’s and fashionmista’s did feel this look. Not sure why and I won’t try to do scenarios. However I will put out there if it had anything to do with age… build that bridge and get over it. If your body is doing the most, with CONFIDENCE even Helen Mirren could pull this off. I’m stretching it? No…. just blogging it… my thoughts. Oh laugh, it’s good for the soul. Gwyneth is rocking this dress.
Cery Mulligan wore Prada. I know this was on some WDL but I disagree. I find Cery charming in the dress. Nothing wrong with going a lil gaudy.
Up close this dress is so appealing than seeing it from the screen of your computer. Cameron Diaz serves up ‘Glamour’ in Stella McCartney. Free of any accessories the dress along with Diaz is giving much appeal.
Delightful was SPJ in Valentino. Valentino head to toe let me add. Not everyone can pull this off but it works for Sarah Jessica Parker. Love her hair and pink lip. Less on everything else is the fashion etiquette when the gown speaks volumes. No one to curvaceous or ‘plussy’ could pull this off without looking like a curtain. I am curvaceous so it is no bash to curvies or plus divas out in the world of fashion. Now let us carry on.
Amy Adams wore Giambatista Valli, classic Glamour love it
Hillary Swank in Michael Kors… Divine. How do you say Gorgeous? Yes I am so pulling from Dee Lite but yes Swank looks so great in Michael Kors. Chiffon is my ‘ideal’ for all things feminine, sexy, luxe. This is a beautiful dress and Hillary is wearing it well. Michael Kors I know is proud.

Kanye West in Givenchy… Magnificent, That pose is too ‘cold’ ♥
Gerard Butler wore Alexander McQueen, so debonair….
Pharrell Williams looks great, hair color fits, thank goodness not bright blonde. That would be so… oh well he didn’t do it so super cool.
Zac Posen for La La and Carmelo Anthony Rag n Bone. Azul se ve tan bien en La La Mujer de mi compañero de color Latina.
Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci ensembles they rocked well, Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz. Some say… Alicia could have pulled the look more together? Please… the tails if you had a full view were all that, I am loving the hair pulled back on so many ladies during the gala and Alicia Keys is one of them.
Emily Blunt wearing Calvin Klein, truly worked the Red Carpet
Chloe Sevigny in Miu Miu seem to be missing something. I abhor the shoes. Usually when Chloe takes a risk it really works. Everyone can’t be ON all the time in the reality of life. I will give her body a thumbs up on the dress not feeling ‘pinched or ‘pouted’.
Heidi Klum chose to wear Escada. Most times I am feeling the ‘bring it to I’ve brought it’ from Heidi but not this time around.
Stunning! Chanel Iman es encantadora. Las meras palabras no pueden expresar cómo se ve encantadora. Me encanta este vestido, que está haciendo que todo funcione.
Chanel Iman wore Tom Ford and Sashayed in with Tom Ford. They both looked as is they ‘leaped’ from the pages of a glossy, actually the cover of a glossy. That Look Chanel is giving the paparazzi… Ooh la la.
It’s Prada meets Tom Ford for the couple Jessical Biel and Justin Timberlake. Of course Biel could have been been more glamour or daring but it’s spring, let the spring fling have it’s way.
Tim Tebow actually is putting down some flavor here. This sincerely goes from my lips, to my keys on this keyboard to God’s ears. ( Pun Intended ) Tebow now a part of the New York Jet’s Football Team is wearing Ralph Lauren Purple Label Tuxedo. Noice.
Amare Stoudemire of the NY Knicks attended the Gala with Alexis his on again-off-again lady. Amare is wearing Calvin Klein.
Alexis is giving leg and tasteful ink, love it! Hooray too seeing ladies rocking the more feminine heels without the boxy chunked look. Alexis go girl!
I decided to wear my MARC JACOBS ‘Blush’ today because I am ‘blushing’ with the Devil May Care attitude to ‘unsnob myself’. You just have to roll with this in the name of fashion. The famous and infamous designer get’s an approval from QUEEN QUEER DEAR, which is my proud nickname from my ‘Lovely Lovies’ which is what I call them ‘in the life’. The buckles on Marc shoes are so ‘extra’ right now. I feel if Marc clicked his heels, it truly would be no place like home for him. The evening is about forward movement so you know… there it is ladies and gents.
Joan Smalls with designer Olivier Rousteing, wearing Balmain. I love me some Joan Smalls if you can tell from my the ads and pictorials over at my online magazine 1021Online, I love me some her. I do find this ‘look’ ill placed because of the Spring Season we are in but the idea could be to say ‘look this is what is upcoming for the line’. The detail is impeccable and Olivier looks well pulled together he’s giving lots of MODE and saying no fuss no muss.
Diane Von Furstenberg! Madam can be all kinds of ’Forgiving’ in this dress because in my ‘Rushing To The Next Gig’ the classic ‘wrap dresses’ have made me look so ‘put together’ in the midst of my chaos moments. I love the neck-wear, gloves, skin, hair. She is simply glowing…
Karolina Kurkova shines like literally shines in the Rachel Zoe dress. It is magnificently ‘In Your Face’, “Here I am’. Not everyone can take on this look but with the body and statuesque grace of Karolina she makes this whole look work. Look at the detail on the back of this dress. Wow. Now if we want to talk about some things Rachel Zoe is ‘too thin’ I won’t even post that pic. I wish I could give her some of my paella.
Vera Wang is ‘too thin’ as well IMO. Here she is with Paula Patton. Now many have given their thoughts on the dress and here is mine. You have to know the designer. She is wearing Vera… Wang. It is a beauty that quietly states itself.
Ginnifer Goodwin wears Monique Lhuillier. I love this on Ginnifer. It took me a moment to love her hair but I really do like it. I don’t like the clumpy shoes at all. Fresh face yes, the color really pops for the season and the detail is giving a romantic appeal. You get that from Lhuillier.
Here’s what’s really good. Rohan Marley son of Bob Marley on the Red Carpet with Isabeli Fontana. Okay…. Then. Isabeli gives us Pucci all in our faces. I love Pucci but I am not really feeling this design at all. Isabeli Fontana is stunning but not enough to wow me in this dress. Rohan is formally relaxed but he works the look very well.
Chris Benz and Julie Macklowe one word FUN!
Stefano Tonchi and Ahn Duong, so classic and elegant
Jessica Stam in Dior Couture looks cute. The dress looks more relaxed than stiff because the accessories are working with not against the design.
OMG I do not like this on Kate Bosworth, Prada or not. Nothing about this… Rather disappointed because Bosworth brings it. Grrr…
Marcus Samuelsson and Maya Haile… Maya is giving me Josephine Baker ‘so done not ‘undone’ aka dressed not under-dress ( Nude ). Samuelsson looks dapper. Is that a ‘hand ink’ I am seeing? Ooh la la… nicely placed. Yes I am being biased ( InkSISTER here Feathered Quill for the ♥ of the written word/ode to my Choctaw GR-Grandmother ). May I add her eye brows are NOICE, I just love the CONFIDENCE in this photo.
Milla Jovovichin Prada. She fills this design out nicely. Love the color of her nails and feet, the heels aren’t boxy, the hair, the clutch she OWNS this moment. La Lovovich has been around long enough in fashion to NOT do a Faux pas unless she is on one of those days where I don’t care. Monday night, she cared and I thank her for that wholeheartedly. Werk!
Marion Cotillard in Dior Couture is really speaking to me in a good way. It is not a WOW look but it is a look that you can second glance.
Azealia Banks Mizz 212 performed at The Met Gala. Banks is becoming a ‘Designer Darling’ as far as new up and coming artists. Despite being ‘ a lil too mouthy’ on twitter, which I feel she will calm it all down, she is making her way in the ‘right circles’. With an album to be released in much anticipation by many, here she is with designer Alexander Wang. Azealia Banks is wearing a Alexander Wang custom design. I would love to see her experiment with different looks for her hair. I am sure as she evolves so will her style.
Visit LOLITA’S BLISS ENTERTAINMENT REPORT as I give my vibe to Azealia Banks MUSIC TAKEOVER. Scroll through the recent shows and press play. Yes it is a moment where I didn’t take myself seriously but the music and reporting, yes always seriously- enough. ( smiles and eats more paella )
To get this ensemble Lady Anna Wintour is giving us, you must know your FASHION or just follow the fashion blogs who will give you detail. Lady Wintour is giving homage to The theme for the event is “Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations.” Homage goes to Prada for giving their designer take on Elsa Schiaparelli’s ’lobster dress’. Anna wears it well and her signature ‘bob’ truly makes this look rather ‘Classic Glam’.
Anna Wintour and daughter Bee Shaffer in Erdem
Arizona Muse and Erdem Moralioglu/ Met Gala
Natalia Vodianova and Valentino Garavani. Valentino dress is lovely on a small frame with the dynamics of the gown details.
Janelle Monae looks great in her ensemble. So many people are saying they didn’t know she had such a great figure. IDK how they were looking at her, maybe the tux and hair ensembles just had them in a ‘fixed state of mind’. I think she looks great, truly she could be a great MUSE for a designer.
Rick Ross attended the Gala posing here with Chef Marcus Samuelsson
Solange Knowles was the Epitome of Elegance in the Rachel Roy custom made gown. From the hair, skin, accessories, Solange is GLOWING one of the TOP LIKES of my perusal various fashion looks at The Met Gala.
Nina Dobrev in Donna Karan is adorable. I have no flaws to talk about on how she is so put together. Take this gown and place it on another and I just don’t know. I am not even trying to envision it. Nina OWNS the moment in this gown because you don’t notice how ‘busy’ this could start to look. Maybe ‘busy’ on another but not on Nina Dobrev. Quite a ‘bold’ move to me when upon seeing her she wouldn’t be placed as ‘bold’… and there is the beauty of why this works… Expect the Unexpected. The MANTRA to me on how fashion should be for anyone whether you have a ‘signature style’ or not.
As I conclude, there is more to view. Go further inside to get complete IN THE KNOW MOMENTS on The Met Gala. Definitive ‘Style’ varies from one person to the next. Go with what makes you feel good, you have to wear it, others don’t. You know YOU, so OWN it. When you OWN IT, it is 100% Confidence and CONFIDENCE is signature. Now let me know what you think?
I’m about to go HACK THE PLANET with this song playing in my head after pressing play. Yes Bebe is about to watch HACKERS. Thanks for visiting THE DEJA. Stay eternally youthful, so that your fashion sense and overall sense doesn’t become cynical and bitter, be BRILLIANT.
you’ve been deja vu’d,

Inside The Party Of The Year VOGUE
BEBE’S MUSINGS…
Hey DEJA FAM… decided to conscious up a post due to more emails I received from some Phenomenal Women who have been enlightened by my PSA over at 1021 Online Magazine and speaking on a Women’s Panel. Being an Advocate For Women Making Better Moves In The Personal And Professional Life is something I don’t take for granted. Even through FLAWS AND ALL if I am going to be an advocate I’ve got to live the life more positive. I am living a ZEN LIFESTYLE, letting myself stay in a more positive aura personally and professionally. Sure we all have those ‘Trying Times within the ‘Storms of Life’ but it is how we handle things that matters for the outcome to be more in our favor. When you stay on the good side of KARMA it rewards you.
I recently spoke on a Women’s Panel in April. It was all about LIFE… how we deal. The young ladies and men who also attended I spoke with were ages 18-29. No matter the negatives we’re seeing with some young people, let me tell you many of them REALLY HAVE IT GOING ON. They are bright, optimistic on their future and so much more. It was a very sobering moment for me. Some in attendance are going through some tough issues and it was my humble honor to have them open up to myself and others on the panel. Not everyone can do that and I find that very admirable. Great Workshops happened after everyone on the panel spoke. Workshops dealt with dealing with your own issues, truths, adversities, abuse on many levels, dealing with other people’s baggage and more. If you see someone who needs direction, in a bad place in life, sometimes being a listening ear is what’s needed. Too many people out here have enough people down on them, to have that ONE MORE PERSON down on them. Decided to give some affirmations that I shared on the panel. It really feels good to impact lives and in turn they have impacted mine.
Know Yourself…
Love Yourself… Respect Yourself… Laugh At Yourself
Treasure Your Friends…
Never Keep Your Enemies Close, Dismiss Them…
Why Would You Want To Keep Them Close?
The Divine Nature Of Life And Good Karma Handles Enemies…
Lovers…Come And Go Let Them Go With Unforgettable Thoughts Of You…
Ladies Always Be Pursued…
When Pursued Let It Be For Gains, Moving To The Next Level…
Never Let Someone Pursue Only To Lead Them On You Look Shallow…
You Cannot Ease Others Insecurities… Nor Should You Have To…
Reality Shows of ’drama nature’ give false confidence. When it is all said and done, when they say CUT, the show is a wrap. Those character’s you come to love even with the real persons name attached go back to their normal as their bank accounts look really good to provide for themselves and their families. Following their lead in real life, your ending could be in jail or worse, death thus lowered in the ground while people carry on with life. You never know who you are pushing to eliminate you. Ever heard of SNAPPED? Or take the closest thing to you and leave you wishing on your life you never tried to be badder than you think you are. Know reality vs non-reality.
I asked how many in the audience watched certain Reality Shows that kept on and on with drama. Tt was many people. LOL I wasn’t shocked at all. Then I asked them how many believed it was all real? We got some really smart 20 somethings in the world, Thank God! 
Everyone said MORE FAKE THAN REAL. So… Awesome.
So I continued to speak… here’s the condensed version…
Ladies Never Confront Another Woman About A Man… You Look Crazy…
Ladies Who Get Confronted By Another Woman, You Know Who Is Winning…
YOU ARE… Checkmate.
WE’RE ALL FEMALES but we’re all aren’t LADIES.
You Rarely Hear Of A Man Stalking Another Man Over A Woman Much…
If A Man Does Stalk Another Man, He’s Weak… #thatisall
If a Woman Does Stalk Another Woman, She’s Weak… #thatisall
Sometimes you have to say no to loved ones constantly wanting your help. It can wear you out. If this happens, not only will you NOT be good to yourself, you won’t be good for someone else. No sometimes doesn’t mean all the time. Be okay with that and make sure you take care of self.
Take no abuse mentally, physically and more.
Staying in an abusive relationship leads only to death
Death physically or mentally, TRY SELF-LOVE
LUST FEELS GOOD BUT EVENTUALLY IT WILL HURT….
LOVE DOESN’T HURT, LOVE JUST LOVES…
People And Their Actions Hurt, LOVE IS GREAT! LOVE IS OF The Most High.
That Day was a good day, I hope some of those women turn it around.
The panel today… inspired so many people.
I am not the most ‘touchy feely’ person when it comes to strangers but that day I hugged and cried with some of the SISTERHOOD telling their stories, having no hope to having hope. I am telling you… felt good, felt sooooooo good to be in that moment. How you handle the moments how you stay on the side of TRUTH, let it prevail. Watch how only good things come to you as your Karma and Life remain positive. You can control how you react to things and that is what matters the most.
YOUR INTUITION… Let It Guide You In All Matters Of Your Life…
YOUR INTUITION… Will Never Lie To You
That Moment When You Know He Loves You…
That Moment When You Know She Loves You…
That Moment When You Know Time Heals All Things…
That Moment When You Know Time Forgives All Things…
That Moment When You Know You Forgive But Never Forget…
ALWAYS KNOW When You Are Convenient And When You Are Unforgettable
CONVENIENT VS UNFORGETTABLE polar opposites…
DO YOU KNOW A Person Can Make Love To You Thinking About Another?
DO YOU KNOW Who You Are Sleeping With?
DO YOU KNOW Who You Are Dealing With?
If You’re Easily Lied To, You’re Easily Led…
KNOW The Difference Of A Man Being Your Man, Your Man For The Moment…
Same applies when you flip that….
NEVER Say What A Person Won’t Do…
When You Aren’t Challenging/w/o being a ball buster… You’re Boring… NEXT
FACTS… ARE NEVER OPINIONS…
Never Lie About Your Conquest In The Personal And Professional
Someone Could Always Expose You… So live your best life and OWN YOUR ACTIONS. Like elders use to say, do everything you are big enough and bad enough to do in public not just private. Elders.. bless them.

Never Be Addicted To Your Social Networks Unless You Making Big $$$$

Cherish your friends, family, strangers that can impact your life. Let some part of your life be about service, and whatever has happened in your life FORGIVE YOURSELF, just FORGIVE YOURSELF and carry on with the NOW, THE PRESENT…. you owe it to your Wonderful Self. You may not feel wonderful now but give it time, you will. I send good vibes out to everyone coming in contact with this post so join me, and let’s PAY IT FORWARD.

I end this post on a sober conscious note because there is a time and place for everything. Thankful to phenomenal parents, phenomenal family, friends, supporters and more. When you know it is not all about you in the grand scheme of life but it is all about being the best you and others, MAKING A DIFFERENCE that’s living to your FULL POTENTIAL. I do not take for granted the responsibility I have with my business entities and how they affect others. Thankful for being able to wake up every single day and do what I love.
This was pretty cool… Thanks For Visiting THE DEJA. In an IMPERFECTLY PERFECT WORLD, Live Your LIFE knowing it’s not just about you but about those among you. Let us not forget those who loss their lives foolishly, especially our youth who died senselessly. We’ve got to do better collectively and be there when we see the warning signs of others who have no respect for Human Life. Those of us who do, let’s make that difference.
