"Be the best you can be today because today is all you really have"     

     I’m so over Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus; crazy moments.  You can pretty much put them both in the same boat character wise, as far as I’m concerned.  The one thing I will say about them is that their actions have purpose.  There is something I heard James Brown say some time ago, “There’s no such thing as bad publicity because all publicity keeps your name fresh in people’s minds.”  It’s a sad reality but so true.  Hey Justin and Miley you don’t need that right now because you have talent and a wonderful fan base; don’t mess that up!  Listen anybody with a little bit of age has gone through a bad moment or two in life but the thing is you have to turn it around, not for yourselves but for your fans.

     Did you guys watch the OWN Lindsay Lohan special?  I didn’t because I’m pretty indifferent right now to her situations; ALL of her situations.  I will say this, Lindsay isn’t crazy. She might be sitting on crazy right now but crazy?  No.  I just want to get that out there. 

     In my opinion Lindsay has been playing a role all of her life and she doesn’t know how to stop playing this character.  Lindsay… this is for you.  You’re at what I call a serious dis-connect from your true self and until you find your true self your life will keep on spiraling down.   It’s my belief that Lindsay Lohan is a beautiful story waiting to happen and I can’t wait to see her stand.  The only thing she lacks right now is courage.

     From now on I want you to do me a favor.  It’s really a simple request that you can easily do with minimum effort.  I promise.  Every time you read or hear about somebodies story pass it on to someone that needs it; make it a positive message.  You see my story may not be for you and your story may not be for me but the right story with the right person can change a life.  Imagine what a difference it would make knowing that something impossible to you at the moment was somebodies achievement.  I’m asking you to do this with the purpose of building someone up not tear them down, so if you find something that can help pass it on.

     I’m quite sure that you’ve tried to blow up a balloon only to have it slip through your fingers just as you were getting ready to tie that bow.  You thought your job was done only to see your hard work blow all over the place; with no control.  Your whole life can be like this if you don’t grab it the right way.  I’m Lady PJ and I’m pouring out what’s been put into me; much love to you all.
