"Welcome Beautiful Ones"



DGWOS is not a page where we bash, hate, use foul language, or tear down one's character through jealousy and envy. It is a page designed to inspire, to celebrate, to encourage and to promote self-love. This page wants to catapult you into a stronger and better you mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Throughout the month, seasoned "Women of Substance" will share their experiences and thoughts to remind you that you are the diamond that God has intended for you to be. Please note: we are not psychiatrists or psychologists, nor do we profess to be perfect; but what we are, are women, mothers and grandmothers, who have been through the trials and errors of life and now want to help guide you through the same, if you choose to accept our views as you travel on this same wonderful journey called life. As a follower we only have two requests: 1) you share this blog with others and 2) strive every day to be the best you, you can be.
Ladies, let this blog be the reflection of what true, exquisite diamonds look like.

Peace and Love....

"Which Character Are You"

Happy Thursday – One of my favorite things to do when relaxing is read; I’m always amazed at how life-like the characters are portrayed. Some characters will make you laugh and cry, some characters will make you fall in love, while others, will make you straight up, hate them. So I got to thinking, if our lives, are like an open book, then what kind of character are we? Are we that character that people can identify themselves with, or are we the type of character that people will despise. I believe our character is something that when we walk into a room, everyone will take notice of. Our character should speak volumes about us. But sometimes, our character will make people want to turn the volume way down. I’ve learned, it’s our character that defines us, not our actions. Because our actions may show that we have made some bad choices or mistakes, but it’s how we handle or come back from those bad choices and mistakes, that show our true character and resilience. I’ve learned that having good characteristics is something that can’t be bought. And by no means, am I dissing any achievements that anyone has accomplished, because we all should be progressing towards something positive, but no titles, no education, no outfit, no shape, no eye color, no skin complexion, no hairstyle, no expensive car or home, can take the place of quality character. And I’m not saying that we have to be perfect either, but what I am saying, is when people begin to read our lives, what type of character will we be; a memorable one, or one that they hate to see coming. I want to be remembered; how about you. Think on these things today beautiful one. Peace & Love…
