Sherlene: The Reason Why I Am Changing My Political Party

Dear Fellow U.S. Citizen, As a former 2016 presidential candidate (Write-In, Republican), I feel like my current values of helping others require me, begs me, to change my political-party stand from being a Republican to a Democrat.   Republicans believe in freedoms that express that all citizens have the right to independently pursue their own financial status in their lifetime (work as hard or little as you want, give much or little as you want to your family-line generations), that all citizens should have the right to keep their hard-earned money and to not give a large percentage of it away to big dysfunctional governmental programs and welfare services via taxes, and lastly, that all citizens have the right to choose their political party, religious views, and to preserve the definition of the traditional family classification in our country. President Trump has had a lifelong pursuit of being President. The reality is what he had set out to do has been achieved.  No

Sherlene: Devotion Socials and Easter Season 2019

It's time for families of devotion social (GICPA) to decide plans for the Easter season. Many of us will not be celebrating in the traditional manner of praising the crucifixion of Jesus-- the killing of an innocent man and our Saviour, dying on the prisoner's cross. We mourn the suffering that he endured so that we may have the choice to be a part of the everlasting life and real peace. During GICPA devotion socials, I, personally, show no respect/disrespect to the cross symbol.  As we realize, centuries ago, there were so many people who died on such crosses throughout the international lands of Jesus's historical era.  I choose to reflect the visual of the open cross to symbolize the meaning that Jesus is no longer on the traditional prisoner's cross. Why should we mourn for him when he is no longer on the cross? It is because he lives that our sins are forgiven, let's rejoice. During the month of March, our Food Fasting and Healthy Eating/Exercise social. E

Sherlene: Higher Incomers, Let's Compare Similar Purposes of Your Spending Habits

As one who is protective of my personal character, I have always wanted to say to people who earn higher incomes to maybe not be so public with your purchases.  I think sometimes that higher- incomers show their things to inspire and motivate their audience and fans--to thank them for what they are now able to afford because of them. Or, to show that they have been blessed with such opportunities to spend at various entrepreneurial brands. Today, if you are a public figure that means that your audience and fans are diverse, economically. Some celebrities and public figures, who have climbed the success ladder, may have forgotten what its like to purchase the following products and services. Be mindful with empathy, celebrities and public figures, of what you post on your social media and web site: We know you work hard for what you have, but everybody don't want to see all of that especially when layoffs and brand closures are happening.--- Comparison Shopping Shopping for

Dear Sherlene: Why Are Some White People Dressing As People of Color?

Some may call it racist, I think it's really a personality dysfunction of wanting to know what it's like to be a person of color. Some whites may feel that blacks get more attention--good or bad--than whites. My advice as a person of several races: Dress up like a person of color "at home," for a day, not in public. If you want to know what it's like to be of a different ethnicity, simply dress up or paint your face like one of your beloved friends or celebrity of color. My Native American of color, great-great grandmother (maternal) had a white half-sister. The white-identity side of my family is from the Europe continent. They traveled from Europe and relocated to New York. My great-grandfather, Oscar Clarence Hicks, somehow ended up traveling to Maryland for work. He somehow ventured to the Rock Hall community of  Maryland which is close to a nearby Indian reservation (Piney Neck). While working in the area, he noticed a young native of the area. Her fam

Sherlene: Citizens' State of the Union Address, "I Thought I Was Giving, I Worked Productively To Give What We Call Taxes"

There are many taxpayers and politicians that are disgusted with the current mishaps of our government's administrative offices. Some are arguing, right now, that funding allocations are not getting to the many citizens who are in need. I think that we should receive, ourselves, such dollars so that we can measure whether we do a better job of financial education--of our needs, building our economics in our communities, and our wants--than government agencies and internal staffers. Such staffers are not accountants or bookkeepers, they are spenders for things that they feel is necessary for our government to run on an everyday basis. The government agencies that have not accounted for the budget money that their office was given to disburse are-- 1. $21 trillion displaced from government-wide of itself that no one knows what happened to the money, from 1985 -2015. 2. Some leaders of administrative offices said that several million dollars of the $21 trillion were given to th

Sherlene: Music In The Family Homestyle

Do you allow music of any form to be heard in your home? If so, what kind of music do you allow? Music forms are divided into two classifications: either secular or gospel. Some faith-believers associate music to Satan: Satan is said to have been the highest director of heaven's music. When God forced him out of heaven and down to earth's low things or dust forever, he knew the beats and melodies of God and Spirit singing--by social cultures, this is said. Personally, I've never read such verses in the bible. If Satan was that close to God in all things. Then, he knows a lot more than the sounds of music. He knows every form of sound. Satan knows how to talk just the right things to people; he knows how to make his demonic words sound right to get people to do his will. He knows how to bring the wrong sound to one to hear at just the right time, before a blessing. Satan's sound can cause others to follow a very different, destructive path of life experiences. Nex

Sherlene: 2019 Spring Semester College Students and Their Assigned Majors

Due to the current partial government shutdown, I am suggesting that all students verify with their attending colleges whether their selected academic major-of-completion still exists. Contact your assigned academic advisor or the onsite registrar's office to verify, before attending this upcoming spring semester.  Do you know whether there has been a decline of enrollment of your said major? How many students were in each of your classes, during the winter semester? Be cautious of any major program that you have noticed a decline of course choices, especially courses that are normally available at the main campus of your college. Most often, courses are being canceled due to a lack of student enrollees [in a specific major program]. Often, colleges will comment to their students that they will allow current enrollees the opportunity to complete their degree programs. If a major program closes, most accredited colleges will allow you to complete its program of study--

Sherlene: Dear Federal Government Workers

Dear Federal Government Workers, I have empathy for what you are going through right now. I worked for the government for several years--regardless of whether employment verification is given. You should really get one of them to prove to your debtors the severity of this partial government shutdown. How does it feel to work every single day and not have a paycheck, feels like volunteerism right? Oh, and if I were you I would keep a separate timesheet journal to include in your work portfolio. Let's hope that no one steals your work portfolio--like another internal government employee of your career industry. How can you prove that you work for the government when you aren't getting a paycheck?  I guess you could prove it by your tax return is what several federal workers told me. Just keep in mind that a tax return doesn't formally identify your job title with the organization. In other words, an IRS representative will not be able to determine you what you are doing, w
