I keep forgetting to answer these because I saw questions 5 and 6 and just decided not to even try. Here are my answers for the blog fodder questions from 7 thru 9.
Which is more important, intelligence or common sense?

Lack of common sense will get you killed.

How does one handle work, home and family (or a combination thereof) without having a nervous breakdown?

Prayer, and lots of it.

Name a sensory input(s) which trigger a mood change be it uplifting, depressing, poignancy or remind you of a past event or period in time. Examples - the smell of an aftershave or perfume, a song, a baby crying, the sound of a vegas slot machine, the feel of clean sheets, the taste of a childhood drink.

The smell of chlorine reminds of the day I nearly drowned. The smell of Oil of Olay face creams make me think of my grandmother. The sound of blues music reminds me of the times when my father was playing with his band at the Waterfront when I was a child. The sight of someone pregnant reminds me of all the agony I went through in labor with my son.

I guess that’s it for the Blog Fodder questions…if I go any deeper with that last one I will end up having flashbacks.

Frankly, the one person who has changed my life beyond all that I could ever think was Jesus. Yes, it sounds cliché but it’s the truth.

I used to be a bisexual weed-smoking alcoholic drug dealing prostitute. I was abused sexually, emotionally, and physically long before all those labels were placed on my head.

Now I am none of those things.

I am a minister to the youth. I minister in song and word. I give my testimony to those who request it. I write music for the glory of God. I have founded a group for those who would like to change or have changed *much like Exodus International, but nicer*. I no longer crave alcohol and marijuana. I have not sold drugs or my body in over five years. I gave my heart back to God on July 24, 2001. I met my future husband the next day. I got married October 28, 2001.

My husband has his own testimony about what he went through before he found God. He has his own story to tell. He was a gang leader, marijuana smoker, and had an anger problem like you wouldn’t believe. He is none of those things now. He is a minister as well. He gave his heart to God about a year before I did.

That’s why when I say that Jesus has changed my life, He has. No other name that I have ever called on has done what the name of Jesus did in my life. My own mother even said “If God can change you, He can do anything”.
