"African-American Elders Day On July 22, 2011 On July 22, 2011, The second Annual African-American Elders Day will be celebrated. A day of tribute and recognition for those who lead the path to the discovery of spiritual consciousness and the essence of creation. An elder is the bearer of the flame of truth and knowledge. They carry our history like the heavens hold the Sun. Their day of celebration will focus on building and confirming a value system of knowledge, wisdom and understanding of life.

If life offered only three gifts, hope, faith, or love, which one would you prefer and why!
"I would select love. Its power centers around its unconditional nature. An absolute spiritual bond that goes beyond the superficial encounter knowing. Hope and faith are based on the premise that their essence weighs on the dream of possibilities more so than practical realities. It is the Sonum Bonum in which we all aspire to and can't do without. Peace!" Interviewed by Dr Barbie Banks 08/31/09
