2008 and BEYOND!

Family,

We are the tailend of 2008 and resolutions are already being made. I just looked back at mine and was very proud of myself for actually completing all but ONE of them. The one that is not completed will be done in the fullness of time and I just realized that it was a deep wish of mine that realistically could not have been a resolution had I thought about it some more.
Before you make 2009 resolutions, please be sure to deal with the ones you have neglected in 2008...leaving things unfinished is not cool!

I am very excited at the dawn of a new era - with a black President taking office officially in 2009 and a general feeling of hope from the masses, in my mind 2009 should naturally be a very good year!

I wish you all a very good Thanksgiving season and remind you to be thankful for the smallest of blessings that we sometimes take for granted. Be kind to yourself so that you can be kinder to others, love unabashedly and remember to carry the Creator or whoever you praise wherever you go because He or She is not heavy.

Peppy Entertainment & Promotions has a number of positively uplifting events that we are a part of and if you are in the DMV area, we are inviting you to come out and experience these amazing vibes with us.

On Saturday December 6 the Shashamane Foundation will be having their holiday celebration at Almaz on U Street. We encourage you to come out and support them.


Caribbean RIDDIMZ - the signature event by Peppy Entertainment & Promotions celebrates 3 years on November 15, and we invite you to celebrate with us and Caribbean Vibes Radio who celebrates 4 years in November at our Annual Holiday Appreciation Party on Friday, December 19 at Mahogany Restaurant on U Street.

On Saturday, December 20, you will have the unique opportunity to catch Ron Bobb Semple, Heru, and Precise Science LIVE. If you are a lover of all things BLACK, then this event is for you.


The final event we are really plugging for the year is the UNIA-ACL's Kwanzaa Extravaganza entitled "KUJICHAGULIA". Be there or be square.


Stay well and remember to smile often and stay positive!
