I'll be looking out for the books you post. Ok Jada I'm sure you get this all the time someone asking you guys for something, I'm not asking for a hand out I'm asking for a "JOB" so I can make my own money and help take care of family . I'm not a actor but any other job will be cool with me.UPLIFTNW@Gmail.com
Living Buddha, Living Christ is a great book that I read some years ago, interesting how similar Christ teachings are to Buddha. Anyhoo,"Dope"? Come on Jada you gotta lot of adult college educated fans out there. How about "great". No one uses that term anyway. Btw, Been a fan of yours since A different world, stay blessed. I believe it's in poor taste to ask for a job on this blog, but hey, these are hard times so I understand Aria's post. Perhaps, people such as yourself and Will can help by continuing to be inspirational, continue on with your already many charities, and help in the creation of more opportunities for us supportive fans.-Maya
This is not to bash and yes it's great you as well as others are college educated educate, but a word does not define you! Yet if you're going to say things such as college educated I'm sure your teacher would tell you "Gotta is not a college educated word"
Thank you for being so universal in your book choices as I will read both of these soon. I will also read up on The Alchemist as your hubby (Mr.Smith) has plugged so much on the Tavis Smiley show. It is my innate desire to continue to seek enlightenment and develop into the spiritual being I am and to recognize we all are on a human journey. Mrs. Smith, thank you for being yourself, if you cannot use terminology that comes straight from your fiber such as "dope" than how can you be authentic. I am college educated and yet not offended. I will stay tuned and be of continued support to you and the many endeavors you have ahead. On an off note, what happened to Wicked Wisdom?? I enjoyed your music and never got a chance to see you live, hopefully you have not disbanded as I will be saddened to have missed that opportunity. Many Blessings! Carla
Hello Jada: I am in search of contact information for your agent or agency that handles booking events on your behalf. This would be for a speaking engagement for a Women's group in your home state. You can forward the information to joetaesean@gmail.com. Thank you. Debi
Actually, I AM from the same generation as Jada and we must all grow with the times. That's all!! As a poster said,we don't want to feel old or old fashioned!! No need to take this so seriously, I was simply stating an opinion which Jada welcomes to this great site. Of course, for your info, it's not a big deal and therefore, no need for anyone to be offended, geez. God bless.
well im only 12 1/2 but i am the same way reading many books at the same time right now im reading Brothers in Arms from the Bluford series and im reading Twilight the hole series and i was going to read The Secret life of Bees but im on the waiting list at the libray my mom sayed i shoul ask are there any books you recomend to a 8th grader? Thank you Mrs. Pinkett Smith Zahrah D.M.C. Jordan
Jada, Thank you for sharing your book posts with your fans. I want to tell you I love Hawthorne, and I am so excited to see you back on primetime. I will watch every Tuesday or make sure it is recorded. You are such an inspiration to woman and thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Anika Carr
What a coincidence! I downloaded A Return to Love via Audible.com a few weeks ago, and I listened to a few chapters last weekend. Do you remember the part about her being stood up by a date who was watching the final celebration for the '84 Olympics? (I learned a lot from her truth-telling. It was genuine and positive.) I also loved the section where she reminds us about our own lights. Keep shining!
All the best, Lanita
By the way, on the last episode of HawthoRNe (with Malcolm-Jamal Warner)... while Nurse Hawthorne was expressing concern about Fred's dropping blood pressure, the camera flashes to the blood pressure machine that he is attached to and it reads like a normal person's. Also... why did the show switch the babies?
I just wanted to add one more comment to this particular blog about the Redbook (July 2009) interview in which you discuss Hawthorne and share some private home photos. I thought they were adorable and also, liked your comment regarding Leonardo di Vinci in relation to those photos. Gave me something to think about!!You are one of the most intelligent actresses which is why you are a refreshing presence in Hollywierd!! Keep it up and keep inspiring others including myself to elevate themselves.
I will check out the book by marian Williamson. But the other book is out for me. I am currently in nursing school and have no time to read any books outside of school. I take time to read my spirital books. I will get this book and let you know what I think. I try to get online once a week or so, so it may be a little bit before I get back. Thanks so much. Dimples
I am currently reading the 11th book in the Left Behind series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins. Thank you for the suggestions on the lasted books that you are reading. They sound very interesting. Once I catch up on mine, that would be something I would be interested in reading.
Hey, Sis!!! That is why I love you so very much & why I hope to one day acquire you as my personal friend because you're always looking for ways to uplift another's soul right along with yours. You lack of selfishness & realness has always captivated my soul. I look forward to the day when I can sit and have a good talk with you. For some reason...I feel like I can trust you. I really don't trust people @ all. Those books...I so need. If you have the time, please e-mail me @: honeycoe1@hotmail.com just to send a word of encouragement to my often down heart & spirit. With Thanks, India.
Have your read Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison? It is another must read book. Thank you for sharing with us your thoughts - you are a great inspiration.
well in redbook you took picters of willows eyes to capther wat she felt in that moment n i thought it was interesting so me and my friends spent a few hours at the park and took pics of our eyes and we studyed the emotion behind the eyes Leonardo di Vinci was a smart man!!! Also my cusin said im reading n studying to much when school is out do you think you can study to much????????? well thank you Mrs. Pinkett Smith Zahrah D.M.C. Jordan age 12 1/2
Great books! I actually read Living Buddha Living Christ. Its awesome. I probably need to go back and check it out again. I find that you get something different from the books you read every time you pick them up. I guess it just depends on where you are in that moment when you reach that page. I look forward to your book list.
hi jada, i am i your facebook for one reason (i am french excuse me for my bad english): i am a nurse and you touch me a lot in taking in your heart that work... so i think that you had read my messages in facebook...so thank you for books cause i LOVE to read, its my refuge.... thank you for tell to people good keys with your media pawor.....so, take care and be happy and happy again...
so, how to tell you that ? i have to read here for to be sure that someone can't read me..you inspire me a lot of human love, your family should be happy so much too have you... i have a lovely family too, but i am a little "jam", and i can't completly free like you for exprime me, i can't read what i want, i can't post my photo in face book for make you "hello i am with you", but i think all people in the world are together in "inconscience', they books you read prouve that... we are all the same, we can just help us. i am frustrate today cause i don't know if i will can continue to echange with all my friends in my pc for a personnal reason, and i have too much love in my heart.... thanks god for give to other people like you for give your love in your heart....so ,if i will stop my messages and my discuss with my world family in face book, i just want to tell them I LOVE YOU FOREVER AND YOU ARE IN MY HEART FOREVER TOO. Jada can be a messager. i love this little messager like i love my family and my world family... be fine all, be fine jada and you will miss me A LOT same in the future i can't perhaps just read or listen the "world voice" in face book or here..my adressmail in face book is open for my family world, nothing else than me have this adress... LOVE PEACE AND TAKE CARE. jada i hope you underdand what i mean, you are a women like me, you know whats is nurse live, love you Jada...
Hey there. I'm watching your show for the first time tonight. It has potential. I think there are problems with the camera angles/editing. I'd like to see your facial expressions more. If anyone can express emotion - you can - but the camera keeps cutting away from you when you're talking. Annoying. I hope the show does well though. The nurse locked in the basement with the patient seems like she'll be good. Give her more screen time. I realize your facebook page and blog are both promos for your show but just incase you read these comments...I want to ask you to listen to some music. If you have time - check out Mad Son with the Unknown Prophets. I especially like his Peace Amongst the Madness album. He writes positive hip hop with a lot of heart and soul. If Oprah can help Obama then why not ask the Smith's to put in a word for Mad Son and the Unknown Prophets. Peace! Good Luck with the show!!!
You inspire me, Jada! I am looking forward to reading those books. Right now I am in graduate school, working on my PhD in research, stats and evaluation. It's really a fancy name for educational research. :o) Although I am passionate about my research, it is sometimes such a gift to read a book that is not "required." Please continue to post blogs. They are really uplifting.
When it comes to Wicked Wisdom, I believe Jada has already stated in many interviews that she is focused on her children's career. Can't wait to see Karate Kid! I also hope that Jada will share some of her experiences in China during or after she returns to the U.S. with us on this site!
Hey jada. I'm from Sweden and I'm 13 years old. So I will not write so much so I don't embarrass myself with my bad english. I just want you to know that I love you and your family so much and one day I looked at life.com and it was over 3000 pictures of you. And I loooked at all of them just to see if I could find new pictures of you. And another day I looked after a full episode of hawthorne for 2 hours beacuse I can't watch at tnt.tv beacuse I'm not from the u.s I can't wait to see Jaden in Kung Fu Kid. I would love to if you could send me an email to loviisa-ericsson@hotmail.com
Hi Jada, I love the book recommendations. I'll make sure to pick those two up, and will be on the lookout for more of your recommendations. In the meantime, one of my favorite books is Elizabeth Gilbert's "Eat, Love, Pray" (true story). I cannot even begin to express what Elizabeth's ephiphanies, thoughts, & struggles make me feel. I feel empowered, renewed, motivated, grateful. Check out some excerpts I've posted on my blog entry (I know you'll like them): http://jamlen.blogspot.com/2008/02/eat-pray-love.html
I'm an avid reader of your books, and I am writing to invite you to join Goodreads.com, which is the largest community of book lovers online. Because you are a published author, you already have a profile on Goodreads:
If you join Goodreads, you can claim this author profile and make it your own!
Here are some of the ways you can use Goodreads: - Connect with your readers and build a following of fans - Participate in an online Q&A session with your readers - Blog about anything and everything - Publicize upcoming events, such as book signings and speaking engagements - Share excerpts of any upcoming publications - Post videos about your books or anything you choose - And, of course, share your list of favorite books and recent reads with your fans!
Another enlightening, and I feel a "must" read, is The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra. It's a meditative guide to daily living. Enjoy!
Madame Jada, I am very pleased to hear that you have enough patience to consume two novels at once, I believe that it is truly a blessing for anyone who has that ability. I find myself making so many notes within the margins of a book of interest that in the end I wind up writing a book of notes. For other purposes, I've just finished watching "The Secret Life of Bees" and was wondering if you would be interested in reading a short biographical novel I've written & copyrighted, entitled Lilac Journey: biography of a ganster girl. Naturally, I'm quite biased and do think that it has Oscar potential. However, with all due respect, I'd certainly like to hear what you think. bigbiggityben@comcast.net
You have fantastic taste. I have two books I'd now like to refer you to, though I'm sure you've read them or have plans to already:
Richard Greene - 'The 48 Laws Of Power' & Rhonda Byrne - 'The Secret' ---------------
Pardon me, but I'd also like to recommend a short HILARIOUS YouTube short video that I made mocking Lil' Wayne. And I KNOW You bump Wayne. Hit me up, tell me what you think. You've got my support until the END! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jRANc7X07o
I would be honored if you would read my book. It is an inspirational novel. I would be glad to send you a copy. It also can be obtained at any bookstore, amazon.com or St. Paul Press. My website for this book "Colandra's World" is www.colandrasworld.com. e-mail smithstlucie@aol.com
I'm half black and half white, grew up in south Mississippi. Have a hillarious, stero-type busting, sitcom idea based on my childhood. No idea how else to contact you, I'm just a mom, not a wheeler dealer,if you are interested in hearing more please contact me @ delylahrose@yahoo.com. I chose you because based on the little that I know about you, you don't fit into a box, nor do I. Maybe you would get where I'm coming from. BTW, I saw you were reading Return to Love, that book profoundly changed the way I saw the world, myself, and God. Peace.
PS - you should probably hurry before the bidding war starts between Oprah and Tyler Perry,lol

The previous posts are funny. She's from a whole different generation people, and so am I, don't make us feel old! Haha

Very cool that you are sharing your perspectives with us. It seems so personal. Please keep it going!
