CEO, Sharifah Hardie, vehemently applauds actor Tom Cruises statements on 'Oprah' and 'The Today Show' and adamantly blasts todays leaders.
Long Beach, CA (PRWEB) July 24, 2005 -- Sharifah Hardie, a 29-year-old writer, CEO and single mother, says she has recently made a stand on Tom Cruise's behalf and wants to take today's leaders to task.
She adds, in a soon to be released magazine article for African American Woman, Tom is right. Although I do not agree with Scientology in its entirety, I don't believe you have to join his religion in order to understand his views. Isn't it time we all became passionate about life? If it takes jumping up and down on Oprah Winfrey's couch to get people's attention, then somebody needs to start jumping up and down."
The twice married, single mother of two wants to remind our leaders that the people are going through hard times.
"We have death and destruction in the streets," she said. "We are sending our sons and daughters off to die in foreign wars, we are unable to feed our children, pay our bills, we are in massive amounts of debt, divorcing, getting laid off, our factories are closing, employees are being laid off by the millions and we can't afford the gas it costs to get to work. So it's at times like this that laughter is the best medicine."
She goes on to say, So many of our churches have rich thousand member congregations, reverends with multiple million dollar homes and government officials that commit white collar crimes and walk away. These are the same people who should be teaching us to become CEO's, start our own businesses and create jobs so the entire economy doesn't suffer. They should be applauding Tom Cruise's happiness. After all isn't love the greatest gift of all? Didn't Luthor Vandross leave us with his legacy reminding us of the power of love? Or is it just a reflection on today's society where anyone who is too happy is out of the norm? Well, I say, 'come on everyone get happy!'"
Tom understands that it is the way we react to the experiences in our life that shapes our future. If we choose to be depressed, we will wind up depressed and institutionalized. We will be too medicated to even see that we have a voice, that we can stand up and make a difference. This is still America and we still have the right to free speech and to our own beliefs. Tom has just made the conscious decision to be happy, joyful and successful. Maybe if we all focus on having the same attitude, we could infect everyone with our joy and generate the same contagious magic."
