This video, based on one of my original posts here on Seek The Best Blog, details all of the things that my mother required us to do BEFORE New Year’s Day!

My mother was very supersitious and like many of the folks who were born and raised in the South, the idea of the unknown that accompanies a new year is bound to birth any number of superstitions and “old wives tales” that were used as guidance FOR “good luck” and AGAINST “bad luck.”

Don’t get me wrong, they prayed to God, but they hedged their bets! LOL!!!

I hope that you enjoy the video and you can link to the original post HERE!

I know you know someone that has a negative vibe
And if you’re trying to make it they only push you aside
They really don’t have, no where to go

Ask them where they’re going, they don’t know
But we won’t let nothin’ hold us back
We’re gonna put ourselves together
We’re gonna polish up our act!

And if you’ve ever been held down before
I know you refuse to be held down anymore!
Don’t you let nothing, nothing
Stand in your way!

Lady G shares a “love note” for YOU!

If you know me, then you know that I often tease that George Harrison is my “spirit guide.” ♥️

I look at the world and I notice it’s turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don’t know why you were diverted
You were perverted, too
I don’t know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

Deep inside your hearts for you to keep
Lies a spark of light that never sleeps
The greatest love you’ve ever known
Yeah is written in the stone

In the stone, you’ll find the meaning
You’re not standing tall
In the stone the light is shining
Ever touching all
