Beautiful black boy

My favorite cat, whom I love

I will never meet another like you.

Green eyes that tell you his inner thoughts

He is special,, no doubt about that.

Thank you for all your love, all you mean, have meant

I shall never have another cat like you,

Of that I can be certain.

We have grown older together,

You there for each day of it,

I was there for each day of yours.

In a world of a thousand wonders,

You became one to me.

I will like for you for always,

Love you forever.

My “Meme”, me “Memer”, my boy.

Olive oil, coconut oil, or castor oil with 1/2 cup mayonnaise or mashed avocado can be put through your hair, then you would wrap your hair in a warm dry towel for about thirty minutes. Wash and rinse hair, until oil is out. This will tame dry hair.

Poem and thoughts

Never underestimate the power of prayer!

If the path has stumbling blocks or obstacles, go through them or avoid them. The path for everyone is different, the paths are there to get us somewhere. The place we arrive at is still undisclosed, never give up.

I Stand…You Stand…By Michelle

I stand and wonder about God’s plan

You stand and wonder too

I stand, in awe of his forgiving grace

You can stand where there is a safe place

I stand corrected, in that, Love can last forever

You stand, to reap the benefits of that

I stand alone in many things

You stand, still hoping despite what life brings

Where I stand, there you can stand

In standing together

There’s nothing we can’t weather.

E-cigarettes contain acrolein, which is a herbicide used to kill weeds.[6]

Scientists note that vaping could aggravate the symptoms of COVID-19. Because vaping causes respiratory and lung problems, experts say vaping could make symptoms of the coronavirus worse.[4]

Electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, are also called e-hookahs, vapes, vape pens, and electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS).[5]

E-cigarettes heat liquid (e-juice) to create an aerosol that users inhale. The liquid can contain THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) , CBD oil, and other flavors, substances, and additives.[5]

E-cigarettes produce several dangerous chemicals that can cause lung disease and cardiovascular disease.

These chemicals include acetaldehyde, acrolein, and formaldehyde.[6]

Second-hand vaping smoke contains toxic substances, such as nicotine, diacetyl (a chemical linked to serious lung disease), organic compounds (e.g.benzene), and heavy metals (nickel, tin, and lead).[6]

Studies show that if teens begin to vape with sweet flavors, such as mango or cotton candy, they are more likely to become addicted for life.[6]

Using e-cigarettes increases the likelihood of catching cold and flu viruses.[6]If a young adult or youth uses e-cigarettes, it increases the likelihood that they will start using traditional cigarettes.[6

Approximately 2/3 of teens who vape use fruit-flavored e-juice. Mint and menthol are the most popular.[6]

Poem

Collecting Your Memories
By MwsR

It is sad sometimes
But it is so real.
The life we live all the time.
When there is doubt or fear, or pain
We go back to where we once were.
Finding comfort from the same.
It’s scary to think
For us to move on we need to collect our memories
Before they sink.
Often blinded by the once was
Too much can cloud our today’s.
But if you have to, to move ahead, or just because…
Then collect your memories
Express their feelings as best you can.
Be it in song, writing, or whatever sensories.
