real talk…

I definitely gotta give it to Kandi. She’s strong and sincere. Those were some words I needed to hear this morning.

♥’ing it!!! Very true (and powerful) words!

It’s always good to give your testimony so that others might be healed and know they are not alone. Tragedy and loss can easily make you feel defeated if you don’t have someone else to tell you how they “made it thru” I was encouraged by what this young lady shared because i felt defeated when my fiance was killed last year. We have to get to the point where we want to go on because thats IS the only option.

THANK FOR DAT I NEEDED TO HEAR THOSE WORDS TODAY AND I WILL BE THE FIRST TO GET YOUR NEW CD AS I HAVE ALL YOUR OTHERS BOO YOU ARE A GIFT TO THIS MUSIC AND THE BEST IS YET TO COME FROM YOU I KNOW IT HOLLA AT CHA BOI IM HERE

LOVE Kandi!!! She is by far my favorite in Real Housewives of Atlanta because she carries herself better than the rest. Matter of fact, she carries herself better than most people. Sweet lady with class.

all i can say is kandi , you are a very strong women i just love you for who u are and i will keep you in my prayers.

Hi Kandi,
Lord bless you. I know that what you are dealing with I feel the same as you in so many ways. I know I don’t know you personally but I felt your pain as I watched you grieving on the Reunion for AJ. I lost my brother four years ago Dec 10th at 24 and I had to experience him being removed from live support. That is a very painful ordeal to go through. I want you to know outside of all the negative you see know that you have me cheering for you. Your a single mom like me and your motivated about life and doing more than what you have currently achieved like myself. Don’t grow weary be strong, pray. Your journey in this lifetime will unfold in the Lord’s time, be patient. Take care of yourself and your daughter. Chylla

I juts think u are a dynamite strong refelction of God’s love and power~ Keep pushing and THANK YOU for sharing your truth w/ the world…you NEVER know who you are going to bless & help move them to their goals and destiney~

Kandi… First I want to say that my heart goes out to you and your family. I can’t say that I unserstand how you feel. I can only imagine. But, what I can share with you is. There were times in my life that I went through some very hard times. And like you I had no one to turn to. I am always the one that my friends come to when they need to talk. I am always the one that my friends come to when they need help. But, when I am going through something. I have no one to turn to. Either they have nothing to offer me mentaly or they are consumed with there own lives. And last but not least. Some how the conversation ends up being about them when it is all said and done. So, one day I sit down and I asked God “Why am I always alone when I go through terrible things in my life. Why don’t I have anyone to talk to when I need an ear to listen or a shoulder to cry on? And God said ” I HAVE A PURPOSE FOR YOU AND IT REQUIRES STRENGTH AND TOTAL FAITH IN ME” AND IF THERE ARE OTHERS AROUND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO HEAR ME WHEN I SPEAK TO YOU.” Kandi in the book of Job. The devil wanted to prove to God that Job loved the him only for the things that he owned. And the Lord had so much faith in Job that he allowed the devil to step in and appear to destroy Job. He took everything that Job owned. Including his wife, children and riches. And Job stayed faithful to the Lord because he knew that the Lord had a plan. And when it was all said and done. The Lord blessed Job with riches beyond his belief. With a family that was greater than the last one. Hallelujah!! In Jesus Name!!! Thank You Jesus!!! Girl… God has a plan for you!!! You just stand strong!!! You just hold on!!! You are on the middle of your storm. Yes, I did say middle. The end is near. And when you come through it. And you are able to smile and mean it. Just know that you are chosen for greatness. And greatness will be yours. In Jesus Name…

Sorry I didnt mean to post that twice.

Uv been in my prayers Kandi….. I just told my daughter to read ur blog uv written for today, and listen to ur latest song… I think it will do her some good. Im always one to remind her that she has to find happiness within herself, first and formost. Before trying to find it in someone or somewhere else… No matter what, there will always be someone out there to hate on u at some point in life. To Keep ur head up!… Hearing it come from a positive person as urself, will perhaps continue to spread the word for all of the young and old in the world. God Bless U and Urs, may u continue to reach for ur star, as I pray my children and our youth will as well….. Thanks for sharing, Matina J… OES for Life…

Im the same exact way…they say “THE HARDEST BATTLE YOU WILL EVER HAVE TO FIGHT IS THE BATTLE WITH YOURELF” but all the negative comments that just shows the haters in the world need somthing to do,all this shows your strong but your HUMAN and thats what make you a genuine person at heart……like your hit single “Fly above all the Haters”…I pray you have strength each and everday! I got love for you Kandi!

i absolutey adore you an I look up 2 you i hav one daughter an i am single i think u are more than the average chic as myself. See 5 $tar chics come with alot of haters an backstabbers an tell nini go see your stylist lol she is so extra!!! Keep ya head to the skyy (luvd by few hated by many!!)

Kandi I’ve always like U & thought U to be stronger than U are. God has given U so much in this world & U still ain’t happy. Many of us are out of wk don’t know where our next meal is coming from etc. and that all many of my brotha’s & sista’s who have been given the good things of this world do is complain. Nothing ever enough.

I’m never amazed at how many of us always find a reason why we are sad or that life has thrown me a bad seed…”THINK ABOUT THIS folks all over the world are hurting far more than U Kandi. Be more grateful for your blessings.

Children right here in my backyard went to bed with NO FOOD or a PLACE to Sleep. And U beloved at-lease U have been given the material world. In fact that’s all our entertainers do is get in trouble & complain.

How can the veil of darkness be removed from any of us when we continue to walk in the darkness promoting nonesense or dealing in fooliness to get a $$$$$. Kandi we all have lots folks very close to us it’s apart of life no one is meant to stay here forever, grow up.

I speak from experince I lost (2) of brothers who only 16….and on top of it all my mother, unlike your mom kept U gave us away cause she didn’t want us, so I just like many sweetie who didn’t ask to come have to deal with it. Pray is the key & secondly U must strive to obey His commands more STOP getting it twisted.

I don’t say this to break U down, but to remind U Kandi that U aren’t the only one who has to deal with advertiseies or hardships in this world…..Smarten up & give more opf your life to God All-mighty. U say U believe then BOW DOWN for real and strive to obey His commands more & stop making excuses.

Many of us have no where near your riches that U & so many show off after we have made U all rich supporting U.

I’d like to see a new short style on Khandi and a darker color! Shes a pretty lady but the rooster style is getting old! She is a beautiful talented sister and I wish her well with her new album and feature career choices! She seems sweet ,humble, well grounded, and focused so she should not doubt herself! Even when others doubt you never doubt yourself or your abilities! What God has planned for her ,can;t be stopped by anyone ,not even the haters!

I know exactly how you feel, but for me its my physical limitations that I have to overcome. I am attempting a major project that will shed the light on a struggle that I have dealt with my entire life. You are an inspiration and I have told you that more than once. I have written a survivor fight song (Somewhat of an anthem) that I want a break out artist to record. You are the right type for the song, but I have hesitated asking you to look at it because I have sickle cell anemia and I really don’t know how you feel about becoming involved with a sickle cell project due to the news reports about AJ possibly having the disease. I respect you so much that I am torn about this. Rasheeda is a fan of my sickle cell page on facebook and I met both of you at the OMG Girlz Halloween Bash. If you don’t have any objections to hearing more about my project please reach out to me on Twitter. I’m przthomas and we have tweeted several times, but I don’t think I have ever revealed that I have sickle cell to you unless I asked you to join my fan page. I love you and I wish you nothing but good. I look forward to hearing from you, even if you pass on the project. Your #1 Fan for real.

As you will always continue to grow, you will feel this way from time to time. And being who you are, your inner you will not allow youself to be counted out of anything you have a passion for.

Come a little bit closer and look into my eyes….If only for one moment boy dont be suprised…I want you right here next to me so tell me can we spend some time… So I can hold you closely in these gentle arms of mine….I love you Kandi you inspire me and if your ever looking for artist hit me up

Thanks Kandi. That is real pep talk and we all need that sometimes. We are alot alike. My problem is my thoughts are all over the place. I find it hard to just focus on one thing and do that right. But I am praying to God to help me focus because my love is for the children.

I lost my job over a year ago due to the economy, after 29 years of service. It was a shocker at first but then reality set in that God had a different plan for me. My problem is waiting for that plan and in the meantime my funds have run out and I am struggling. But I also know that God causes us to struggle in order to test our Faith and depend solely on Him. I won’t lie that “letting go and let God” is not hard but I am truly trying to do just that.

I want to open a non-profit Youth Center to mentor youth and their parents. I know it is my passion and I know I am good with the kids. I have to continually pray for patience and take baby steps until I get there. I am turning 53 on March 2nd and my prayer is that by age 55 my center will be up and running successfully. Keep me in your prayers.
