“Till death do us part” …Is this still a reality? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”


When couples marry, they indeed take every ounce of their wedding vows seriously and to heart. In good times and in bad, they even remind each other of those words spoken on the very day they promised to love, cherish, honor and obey. So what happens when the words spoken over each other and their union goes up in smoke?

When the vows are turned inside out, upside down, then doused in betrayal and shame. When the two have grown so far apart, they soon see their vows were as a joke or maybe taken in stride. Divorce is then inevitable.

What happens to “Till death do us part?” Are these words and promise in their vows even a reality anymore?

Were the vows created to manipulate us into a standard of unrealistic expectations? Especially when or if the union fails? When divorce leads to the end of your marriage, then in death you will not part.

My parents were married 58 years and my mom was certainly at my fathers side when he took his last breath fours years ago on January 5, 2015. She sincerely lived out that part in her marriage vow that stated: “Till death do us part“.

I’m sure there are many others who had the same experience but with divorce on the rise among married couples in this society and the lack of loyalty and longevity in today’s generation, is “Till death do us parteven a reality? Where was this idiom established?

Join us at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via Blog Talk Radio for our discussion “Till death do us part”…is this still a reality? As renowned Bishop Andre CAlston, Pastor and presiding Bishop of Antioch Christian Tabernacle of East Orange, NJ will grace our studios for this discussion.

‘Border Security vs. The Wall’ on Tonight’s “Conversations Of A Sistah”


Consider the limited thinking that produces a concept such as “border security.” The essential assumption here is that the United States of America is primarily a physical container – three and a half million square miles of freedom and prosperity but the supply is limited.

The border agents, presumably, are protecting all the exclusive goodies that constitute America. The downside of such thinking has been partially laid bare by the Trump presidency, which, as it began, taking children away from asylum-seeking parents at the Mexican border and warehousing the children in places unknown all over the country, which triggered large-scale public outrage.

It didn’t stop there, immigrants who were in the US on temporary visa’s were detained at airports and being picked up by ISIS agents. All in an a purported effort of border control. Then you have its president shutting down the government to prove his point.

What is the bottom line? Is a wall really needed to secure the US border?

Join tonight’s conversation at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” with our special guest in the studio, NJ’s Bergen County freeholder and District Governor Mr. John Mitchell. As we discuss “Border Security vs. The Wall

“Don’t Choose Regret” Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”


Sean “Puffy” “P-Diddy” Combs mourned the loss of his “best friend” Kim Porter by posting a video that showed the 2 of them embracing during an Essence photo shoot back in 2006.

The 46-year-old, who is mother to three of Diddy’s kids, was found dead in her bed of an apparent heart attack at her home in Toluca Lake, California on Thursday, Nov. 15, after reportedly battling the flu and pneumonia.

“For the last three days I’ve been trying to wake up out of this nightmare. But I haven’t,” Combs wrote in the video caption on Sunday.

“I don’t know what I’m going to do without you baby. I miss you so much. Today I’m going to pay tribute to you, I’m going to try and find the words to explain our un-explainable relationship. We were more than best friends, we were more than soulmates. WE WERE SOME OTHER SHIT!! And I miss you so much. Super Black Love.”

Regret seems to be a fact of life: the one who got away, the job you didn’t take, the fight you wish you hadn’t had, the choice of the wrong school, the investment you didn’t make, the money you didn’t save, the move you wish you’d made, and on and on and freakin on. That’s the predictability of life; there will definitely be something along the way you will wish you’d done differently.

Regret can be big – They can occur daily, or you can have everlasting ones that just seem to color everything you do. But what about those life choices we can control in order to avoid living a lifetime of regret?

Will this be the case with Sean “Puff Daddy – P-Diddy” Combs?

After all he never married Porter, as his cheating on her during their very public relationship played out in the press. Is it possible his public acknowledgement and adoration for his best friend and soul mate an expression of guilt and regret?

Join our Host, Ms. Tracy L. Bell at 6:30 p.m. EST on this weeks “Conversations Of A Sistah” – “Don’t Choose Regret“….Hope to meet you on the air!!!

When should the past, be the past? Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”


Don’t get me wrong the past should neither be forgotten nor accepted, it should be “a thing to be treasured and lessons to be learnt and then you MOVE ON.

Those who choose to simply forget the past miss out on its fullest potential, good, bad or indifferent. There are valuable lessons to be learned from it. And those who choose to ask the right questions about their past are most prepared to live life to the fullest in the present. Too many of us live our lives defined by the choices we made in the past. This shouldn’t be the case, especially since each new day presents a brand new opportunity to become a new person on a new road destined for a new future.

We must be mindful of the company we keep and the cultures we function in because they will either bring us inspiration or derail our progress. Derailed progress, stomps growth!! And when we have no direction, we tend to look back on the past.

So, when should the past be left in the past? And are there some things we should refuse to remember?

Join Host Tracy L. Bell at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via Blog Talk Radio as she explore this topic and explain when the past should remain the past and how the constant reliving of it can become toxic!!!!

We hope to meet you on the air!!!
