  • Spring Stream

     Spring Stream

     

     

    Spring Stream is a poem by Ramelle, to celebrate Springtime

    (Ramelle Carter Blog)

     

    The fresh air is pure bliss

    Cleanliness of the vibrant smell of success is what scores high on the list

    God straightens a pathway to undisputed truth

    At my golden age of forty plus; I am exceptionally still in my youth

    A curtsy stance is the best way to show it off, “My Pleasure,” I speak

    As low in my self-esteem, I sink, lands me close to self-defeat

    When springtime arises, I gladly acknowledge the superb greeting it brings to my heart

    I will not utter the idea of this being the point of no return; I am much too smart

    The shapes, colors, lights, camera action and it all goes away

    Play my cards right, and nothing can lead me astray

    Now here the season of spring has sprung

    The flowers sing and dance a song

    Spring stream down my eyes thus has begun

  • Holiday Joy

    Holiday Joy

    Holiday Season is upon us again

    Many beautiful things to be thankful for this whole year-long. I want to start with visitors to my website; you are invaluable to me. I am grateful to family, friends and loved ones. Especially to my people who came out and supported me by attending Goddess Empowered 6, the show. Everyone who has interest, your companionship and compassion are invaluable. The holiday season should be a time to reflect and reminisce on complete gratitude.

    The horrible Las Vegas shootings moved me to take time off from Blogging to spend time with family. My kids’ birthdays start in October for my youngest son, November for my oldest son, and December for my daughter who all turn older at the end of the year.
    Therefore reflections of the year ending bring about inspiration to do better. I do not set everything in stone. Instead, I go with the flow and adjust as I persist. The purpose is to move forward with building blocks of change and push forward with grace and prosperity.

    My money-saving tips

    Here are what I call (5) festive ideas:

    1) A co-worker introduced my office staff to https://www.elfster.com/ as part of our annual gift exchange; my name was pulled by the boss, guess what; I received a Fenty beauty product. I cannot wait to tickle my face with it. We decided on payments of $25 or less for the gift exchange, and it was a lot of fun.

    2) I performed in Goddess Empowered 6, the show, and for the Finale we were told to purchase an ugly sweater, and after going to (2) thrift stores in my area, I decided to decorate one of my old sweaters, I went to the nearest dollar store and as a result here is the finished product, my ugly Christmas sweater. Here you see my version of DIY craftsmanship. For those with a DIY flair, making things as gifts sound like a winner to me, especially for all my Happy Kwanza family and friends. Also, please make sure your crew is into handmade gifts. Ram for Christmas

    3) Think about purchasing gifts in advance. If possible try to start as early as September, then do it. I wanted to start as soon as this time but relented as all my two boys wanted was a PS4. My daughter, music so I was pretty much done.

    4) Donate to a toy drive, here in the Los Angeles area they have Spark of Love https://www.calfund.org/abc7-firefighters-spark-love-toy-drive-fund/ House Full of Toys https://www.kjlhradio.com/event/house-full-of-toys-benefit-toy-drive/ and a new venture I attended this year Mistletoe Magic hosted by Media Moguls, Bianca Bee, Mariah Darsha, and Trendy Mii, thank you, ladies, for the invite. apple-tree-and-blue-sky-picjumbo-com

    5) Remember the true meaning of the holiday is the birth of Jesus Christ. Gifts are excellent, most of all year round for all special occasions or times. No matter what religion you follow, please remember Jesus gave his life for all humanity.

    Peace, Remain Safe and Don’t Be Mean in 2018

  • One Year In

    One Year In

    I have the dubious honor of having a side gig, blogging. How I got started? I became interested in writing at a very young age. Therefore my passion for writing has turned into blogging. I am not a full-time paid blogger as of yet, that day will come. Right now it is a side gig, meaning something I love to do aside from my full-time paid gig. Most noteworthy, Blogging is a tool of expression. If I want to discuss a specific topic, I just put pen to paper. Consequently,  the real work comes in getting people to read what you write. This pet peeve has my biggest forte to cinch; everyone has their ideas, the best option is to continue; also, it only takes one person to see (Ramelle Carter Blog) like it, then others will come, for now, I have fun.

    Blogging as a Business
    Business ideas always change and differentiate the existence. Some people have a keen sense of maintaining the balance in business. Many will succeed in business and rather some will fail. The key is not to get discouraged, the better and positive vibrations which flow from your brand, the better. No one has the best idea or formula, keep pushing out good work and things will fall together into the perfect form. Especially relevant is that Blogging is a very heavily saturated genre with people competing for an appearance to land at the top.

    First of all,  stand out from the crowd of other blogs and make sure that your standards stay profitable and prosperous. Blogging entails either your brand is the promotion of getting traffic to your blog, notoriety to be an Influencer and have a significant social media following.

    Monetizing a Blog
    The best advantage of getting traffic is also in part due to monetizing your blog. Furthermore,  get from Problogger (Darren Rowse) https://problogger.com/. As of yet, I have not mastered this form but the time will come.
    Brand
    Your brand is who you are and the innovative marketing techniques, steps you take to build it. What is your niche? Answer: what are you the best at, some examples are cooking, sewing, baking, beauty, hair, writing, speaking, business and the list could go on.
    As a result of all your hard work, this is as plain and straightforward as it gets.

    Happy Posting

  • Milestone Movie Review

    2‘Pup Star’ Movie review was my very first Blog post

    The love of animals and children keep me upbeat in a fantastic way. First of all, “Pup Star’ the movie is the commotion that calms the ocean. A charismatic tribute to “The Voice” mixed with a joyous celebration of “American Idol” this movie tugs at your heart-strings. Adorably opulent, due to the imagery of dogs with humor that deserves special ‘paws’ for applause. Yes, the main characters are delightful; allow me rather re-introduce Charlie and Tiny. Charlie, the Labrador retriever, a down on his luck retired singer trapped in a shelter. And of course, Tiny, a Yorkie, who is also a singer that misses the warmth of having an owner.

    Charlie breaks away from the shelter, and Tiny follows. As a result, the adventure in dog tribulations begins. Tiny, our fun-loving Yorkie sparked joy with such an incredible singing voice, she is just what Charlie needed to pick up his spirits. Then Tiny got kidnapped or in this case, dog-napped, Charlie reacted by standing up for what he knew was right, besides he has to have Tiny back for her audition in the singing competition so she can become fabulous, ‘Pup Star’ essentially this is where the real fun begins. If you are into talent competitions, you will love this film. Please download ‘Pup Star’ on FandangoNow. Whether you are a dog lover or not this movie is a sensational treat. Consequently, now a new movie called ‘Pup Star Better2Gether’ has emerged and will probably engage you, even more, August 29th in Digital HD or Select theaters https://www.airbud.com/

  • Restraining Order

    Restraining Order

    More women need to speak up against Domestic Violence

    Today begins another saga, when finally my mind is at ease, the dirt of my past rears its ugly head. I am receiving annoying phone calls from my ex; the nerve of him to start things up again; this charges my reaction to the cycle of further domestic endurance. The preparation of discovering what obstacles are coming my way is impressive; I am confident that I will get my peace and swag back, preferring not to discuss all the consistencies of this affair, but will say that I won custody of our children, and we divorced; I thought the pain was over. My kids are the best gifts; mom and dad issues have nothing to do with our love for them. We don’t see each other, and things are great; I have no bitterness or anger.

    The dysfunction began as a result of his domineering drug dependance.
    My knowledge came when he took his fist to both my eyes,  I got black eyes from the dysfunction, thus the first restraining order. I remember the court date, the lawyer pleaded with me to testify in the case but instead I stayed home. A mistake I find disheartening, especially now: as I look at the news flash, it reads- a brave soul standing up for her rights and taking down jerks; my contempt right now is at an all-time high.

    Consequently, I have taken charge of my life; my bravery most likely will help others. I share stories like this to uplift and above all shed light, to see that you are not alone, it’s effortless to pretend that nothing has happened. Yes, sharing bad moments of the past will begin a cycle of change, a significant difference should shift in a right direction that will prepare more women and maybe even men to speak up, you are not alone, do not keep silent.

    Love shouldn’t hurt or put bruises on your body
