Please email me Destiny - Yankeenaijachick + Success and  honeydame. My email address is earthichick@gmail.com


I've come to realize that just like TV, I was wasting alot of my time online, sooo i have come to the conclusion that i need to LIVE life, life is too short for me to devote even a quarter of it to being online. If i ever return, it will probably be in terms of audio or video. 
So i leave you all with three vids, the first is a spoken word poem that i wrote myself. The second is a vid i watched today that touched me dearly. The third is a song that i heard in october in a funeral.  


First vid: Chizzy D last words on chizzyd.com plus spoken word

Second vid: This brought me to tears

The third vid: In Christ Alone(All other ground is sinking Sand!!!!)

My favorite part was:

In Christ alone my hope is found,

He is my light, my strength, my song;

this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,

firm through the fiercest drought and storm.

What heights of love, what depths of peace,

when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!

My Comforter, my All in All,

here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone! who took on flesh

Fulness of God in helpless babe!

This gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones he came to save:

Till on that cross as Jesus died,

The wrath of God was satisfied -

For every sin on Him was laid;

Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain:

Then bursting forth in glorious Day

Up from the grave he rose again!

And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine -
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath.
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

May we be his and he me ours, Amen!

Love, Chizzy ;D

The time has come to say Goodbye PLUS Giveaways

Good day all, 
For awhile now, i have come to this realization but did not want to accept it. This blog will be ending before the year runs out. As many of you know, my life has changed drastically and because of that I no longer have the time, energy, or even passion for blogging that i used to. I am such a different person since starting this blog. I have grown so much from blogging and reading other people's blog and  I am extremely grateful that God allowed me to connect with some very special people on here. I have never been much of a writer(still hate writing), but i truly love the community and that is what kept me blogging now for over 3 years. I will absolutely miss this community. Once in awhile, i will defiantly check out what is going on in the lives of my favorite bloggers.


3 last things i plan on doing with this blog:
1. Have a giveaway(i promised awhile ago, and i'm sorta kinda a woman of my word).
2. Meet and hang out with the blogger that lives close to me(you know who you are lol.)
3. Blog one last time.


So about the giveaway:  There will be two prices for two different winners.


Prize #1: Brand new red vintage looking dress, size: Medium from lulu.com. Price: $43.00.

Prize #2: $10 gift certificate to Target (why target you say, because i like target better that i like walmart and those two store are everywhere including online.)

I like this gift card cause of the gal's hair...lol.

Warning, this part is a bit selfish, but i'm doing it because i would really like feedback on my blog. Basically i would really appreciate it if you left a comment telling me: "what attracted you to my blog, what kept you coming back to my blog and what you would have liked for me to blog about, why do you think i only have 56 subscribers?" Basically serious feedback of any sort.

So the person that provides the most detailed response to my question(in my opinion) will be the winner and will choose which gift they would like. The person with the second most detailed answer wins the second prize. Please be honest, don't feel like you have to say nice things, just be honest.

If you do not want any of these prizes, i would still appreciate feedback.  I'm doing this because i believe in learning something from every experience.

The contest ends on friday 12/9/2011 at 11:59pm mountain time.

Have a blessed day. Chizzy ;D
