You can't touch it or see it but you know it's there. When a woman feels
sensual, that's confidence. When a kid stands up to peer pressure,
that's confidence. When a young woman leaves home to build a life for herself, that's confidence. When a singer gets on
stage, that's
confidence. When you're not afraid to say something new, try something
new, let someone new into your life, that's confidence. We need to share
it,
talk about it, sing it, inspire it, encourage it, project it, welcome it. That's what Project Confidence is all about and the first
step is to find and acknowledge friends who are already championing the
spread of confidence in communities likes yours. They will become our ambassadors and help up build a nation of confident women.

INSPIRATIONAL BOOKS
Dedicated to those of you who
understand firsthand, through possible similar
experiences what the lines in this book represent. I am
indeed very thankful for my family, my
pastor, and all my friends who were there for me, and most of all I am thankful for
my Heavenly Father who held my hand through one of the most
tragic ordeals in my life, and did not leave me alone.
word
from the mother.keep that in mind as I take you on a faraway
journey to God, West Africa. In February, I was blessed to
travel to Ghana, West Africa. I visited the use in the
Gloria Porter Teemu, an organization that was formed there in
memory of my daughterby a young boy, Anthony Tay. The trip was
both fascinating and and life altering to say the least. I cried
almost the entire time. It was extremely hard, for me, to
believe that in 2007 some people are living in such horrid and
repulsive conditions. Some of them still have no running order,
no toilets are not adequate food to eat.
I
was running as fast as my legs could carry me today was the day
that I was going to pronounce my underlying love for the boy of
my dreams I didn't matter is that we were only in the second
grade. I was going to express my love and he would love me
happily ever after.
Two dollars in my
pocket would secure his love, or at least I thought. How was I
to know that the two dollars in my pocket would establish a
self-destructing pattern throughout my life in my search for
love?
