I read a little about this story yesterday and found it a bit strange. Mrs. Sherrod seemed to be saying she learned something that she was wrong about. None the less some of what she had to say seemed to be bad. Any way, I thought the Tea Party and the NAACP were just stirring up a little mess.
This morning I was watching CNN, come to find out Mrs. Sherrod was asked to resign her position on the side of the road. Come to find out, she actually helped the family keep the farm AND the farmers wife credited Mrs. Sherrod for them keeping the farm.
Mrs. Sherrod, after her words were manipulated by the Tea Party, after she was denounced by the NAACP and hung out to dry by the White House, she showed much dignity!
A Woman Is Dignified!

I had a friend long ago, we used to have these very deep conversations about child parent relationships. Both of us had difficulties, like most people do, in some ways about our parents and how they reared us. We both concluded that parents can only do the best they can.
We both considered what our parents thought of us, whether they were happy with how our lives have turned out so far. Our conversation changed drastically with one question. I asked my friend would she like to be a mother like her mother was a mother and would she like to be a wife like her mother was a wife to her father.
I didn't consider the power of that question until my friend tried to respond, it took a few minutes of contemplation on her part. She later told me she considered not being truthful to me.
She answered me with, "I love my mother, but no I would not like to be a mother like she was nor a wife like she was."
A mother is free to tell her daughter how she is not pleased with her. She is free to chastise her child well into adulthood.
Mother, stop, would you like to be like your mother? Mother ask your daughter, "Would you, my daughter, my child, like to be a mother and a wife like I have been?"
The truth can be a lifted burden from your daughter's shoulders.
We've all heard it said, "Size doesn't matter." We say this to lie and also to take up for our man. But the sad fact is size does matter and women shouldn't play along with this lie.
Long sounds a lot better than short. Big just makes you think, "WOW!" Large makes you smile. Stiff makes you a little bit shaky in the knees. Deep, deep just makes you want to faint!
Now that I have your attention, I've made a list of five things outside the bedroom where I think size absolutely matters.
5 - Consideration
He should be LONG in his consideration of you and your needs.
4 - Romance
A man should be BIG on treating you special.
3 - Intellectual Stimulation
He should be LARGE in his efforts to communicate with you and in is efforts to touch your mind.
2 - You As A Lady
He should be a STIFF advocate in you being treated as a lady.
1 - Emotional Connection
He should go DEEP in connecting with you emotionally.
It is often said, "The grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence." As a matter of fact most of us say this when cautioning our friends about leaving one relationship for another. But I have a question, "Does any grass stay green?" Grass left to itself will just wither turn brown and die. So it is with a relationship.
Any relationship left to itself will grow cold and die.
If you stop the romance in a relationship, romance dies.
If you stop communication, communication dies.
If you stop treating your partner special, your partner no longer feels special.
You look up and your relationship is over, done. You look on the other side of the fence and the grass looks green and promising, so you hop the fence.
All your friends tell you, "The grass is not always greener."
But let me tell you something... The grass can be greener if you remember to romance your partner, communicate with your partner and treat your partner special. Just as grass needs water, fertilizer and constant care so does a relationship.
With this you can say, the grass sometimes is greener on the other side.
