Marietta, GA (BlackNews.com) - Joyce G. Moore, a life coach from the civil rights era, has self-published her new book called, "Mamma Says, Life Is..."

Joyce says, "My series of life experiences keep me thinking about how much I have benefited from the human experience of listening to and observing others, especially my mamma and her one line sermons. The greatest influences in her life came from her mother and father too."

Today, Joyce reflects on growing up in the 40s and 50s in an all colored and negro southern community. She realizes that it has provided her with a firm foundation for this journey called life. Under the watchful eyes of the community and understanding the magnitude of consequences for wrong doings, has made the journey an eye opening experience. "Life is...it just is so many things," as reflected in Mamma.

Joyce Moore is a Life Coach and a seeker of wisdom and truth in all aspects of her life. Not wanting to minimize the information that broadens her abilities to share her wisdom in the educational, emotional, physical, spiritual and cultural aspects of life.

In writing Mamma, Joyce realizes that the majority of the families in black communities are headed by the female, the mother, the mamma - as the key provider of her single parent family. She provides food, shelter, clothes, medical attention, words to live by and so very much more. There is a cost for providing all of the tangibles but the words are free. So, mamma can sit her children down and become the one who conveys messages of wisdom and needed encouragement.

Joyce comments, "No matter how smooth or how rough around the edges that mamma may be, she can be the greatest influence on her children - from birth to adulthood. It is a fact, unfortunately, that peer pressure can upstage all of the upbringing that mamma has made the supreme sacrifices to provide. Parenting takes on many dimensions and it is not the easiest of jobs. Just know that the most phone calls take place on Mothers Day, and the most collect calls are said to be to fathers on Fathers Day."

Joyce feels that her generation, having been raised in a community when and where the members of the community could and would recognize the need to correct any inappropriate behavior was a real benefit to the success of her, her siblings and her peers. If mamma got wind of any issues, she would also take appropriate actions, on top of what had already been done.

In return, Joyce realizes that her circle of friends knew that they generated better lives for themselves if they listened to and practiced what their elders said. There was also a community, a village, where the older generation taught by example. She values the fact that her upbringing and that of her three siblings was done by a stay-at-home mother and working father, who both showed love and respect for their children and expected no less in return.

Mamma Says, Life Is... is a series of 320 thought provoking sayings about life, consisting of 38 pages, released in the Quick and Easy Read Series. A few of the entries read like:

Life is...

6) a gift. Honor those who gave you the gift.

21) keeping yourself happy, while understanding the misdeeds of others.

47) an opportunity to live or do as you want, but don't blame anyone for your mistakes.

68) taken for granted only by fools and those too young to know better.

192) sometimes more in front of you and sometimes more behind you.

283) a jungle. Be on guard for the wild animals.

311) a beach. Learn to swim at your own risk.
