ASK RHONA: Questions for the mind, body and spirit…Let me hear it

Posted in ASK RHONA with tags , , , , , , , on December 19, 2009 by lightcandy

I’ve been told that I have a way of listening and/or saying things that help people. From friends, to family, to strangers, I’ve been a listening ear; helped someone gain more perspective and/or just “chopped it up” (talked) about life. I’ve just been living, taking things as they come, and doing my best to create the life I want to experience; continuing to learn from mistakes, still figuring myself out. I don’t think that ever stops. Things continue to change for me. I believe this happens sometimes to continue moving us through “our stuff”. I’ve learned to call it “pausing for station identification”. It’s up to us to pay attention, so that it can teach us and allow some growth.

“Ask Rhona” is something I’ve been thinking about doing for a while. It will give me the opportunity to connect with people from all over, and do what I love to do, HELP. It will also allow YOU to converse with others in order to help each other. This is an open dialog … Feel free to be yourself … We’ll all be learning something from sharing in this public forum.

For suggestions on topics or to get more private time on a more confidential matter, you can write me at askrhona@hotmail.com 

Also: check out the previous “Ask Rhona” section featured. A lot of great questions were asked… Just click “Ask Rhona” to the right of the blog in orange.

My heart and prayers go out to his family and friends.

Rhona’s “Clutch” plays of the week:

TIGER WOODS FOR ATHLETE OF THE DECADE

Regardless of his recent fall from media grace, Tiger has accomplished great achievements in the sports world. Congratulations to a phenom…

THE NEW ORLEANS SAINTS AND THE INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

Congratulations to both organizations for maintaining  13-0 records! If that’s not clutch, what is?

Rhona’s pick for “choke” of the week:

THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS TOOK THE LOST TO THEIR BITTER RIVAL THE CLEVELAND BROWNS PRETTY ROUGH…

Both teams were on a losing streak, but Pittsburgh still had a chance to get in the playoffs. The Browns were just trying to stop a terrible season from getting worse. The win against the Steelers was just the painkiller they needed to appease their fans and ego for the season.

Rhona’s pick for “smile” of the week

A flash back to 1985 with one of/if not THE best single season team in the NFL. Who wouldn’t love “The Super Bowl Shuffle”? :)

IN YOUR PRAYERS

Chris Henry has been injured tragically and is fighting for his life right now

ASK RHONA: Questions for your mind, body and spirit…let me hear it

Posted in ASK RHONA with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on December 9, 2009 by lightcandy

So here we are … I’ve been told that I have a way of listening and/or saying things that help people. From friends, to family, to strangers, I’ve been a listening ear; helped someone gain more perspective and/or just “chopped it up” (talked) about life.

For years, I chose to dive in and read books involving mental, spiritual and physical health. I’ve even had my share of reading about some esoteric information (confidential information intended for a small group). It dove into conspiracy theories about how the world is really run. Every once and while, I go back to that “stuff” to stay up on what’s behind the veil of our “supposed” reality.

I’ve also just been living, taking things as they come, and doing my best to create the life I want to experience; continuing to learn from mistakes, still figuring myself out. I don’t think that ever stops. Things continue to change for me.  Just 3 yrs ago, I thought I was hitting cruise control, and a major traffic jam slowed me down (figuratively speaking). I went through all kinds of emotions… anger, sadness, fear, worry, and back up the emotional scale to confidence and faith. I believe these things happen sometimes to continue moving us through “our stuff”. I learned to call it “pausing for station identification”. It’s up to us to pay attention, so that it can teach us and allow some growth.

“Ask Rhona” is something I’ve been thinking about doing for a while. It will give me the opportunity to connect with people from all over, and do what I love to do, HELP.

Welcome to my blog!!! I’m a sports head too… Come visit me every week for clutch, chokes and jokes surrounding the sports world. Enjoy!

Miss R&B

Rhona’s picks for “Clutch” plays of the week:

KOBE BRYANT AND THE LAKERS

I’m not a Laker’s fan but, if you bring this many people joy, and hold the best record in the NBA, I’ll give props when props are due. Check this out…

THE NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
They pulled it out in the last seconds. Meachem became a star on Sunday by making two of the Saints clutch plays. He caught a 53yrd touchdown from Brees, and later in the game, stripped the ball on an interception from Redskins Kareem Moore to return it for another touchdown. Big up to Garrett Hartley, the back up kicker, for bringing home the win… 33-30 over the Washington Redskins to maintain a perfect season so far…

Rhona’s picks for “Chokes” of the week

SHAUN SUISHAM OF THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS

Unfortunately, we won’t know if the Saints would have pulled out the win if Shaun made his 23yrd field goal, when the Redskins were up at 30-23. The Saints could have only tied the game with the touchdown and field goal they made. It would have made it a 2 score game to win. Whoops!…

I guess the fan said it best…

DWAYNE WADE OF THE MIAMI HEAT

If only Dwayne could have made that clutch “free throw” at the end of the game, Kobe’s shot would have sent them into overtime, and kept hope alive for a Heat win. I guess history would have it to add to Kobe’s long list of “greatest moments”…

Just Jokes: Terry Tate Office Linebacker

Join me on Sunday in Los Angeles at The J Spot…

It’s ME again!!! Feel free to leave your comments;)


The AMA’s were filled some of the music biz’s hottest entertainers… From the iconic nostalgia of Janet Jackson to the innovative hip hop stylings of the Black Eyed Peas, and the pillar of diva strength displayed by Whitney Houston There was some great energy in the performances of Keith Urban and Carrie Underwood Lola’s (Jennifer Lopez) “comeback” actually showed up in her performance, as she had to recover from an impromptu fall in the middle of her stimulating presentation Jay Z brought “The Don” swag with the pinky ring to match in his New York “Empire State Of Mind” song, an electrifying exhibition with the beautiful and talented Alicia Keys.She also unveiled her new single “Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart” in an engaging performance. Other honorable mentions include Kelly Clarkson (beautiful vocals),

Rihanna’s outfit ,

Mary J Blige (a soulful delivery only she can give)

and Lady Gaga (who seems to always stun and prove that she’s a talent force to be reckoned with)

Taylor Swift racked up winning 5, yes 5 AMA’s! She won more than the late, great Michael Jackson (expected to sweep his categories), whom she also beat for “Artist Of The Year”! Whoa… However, MJ garnered 4 trophies over the course of the evening, and broke the record for artist with the most American Music Awards totaling 23! …
