“My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.” Maya Angelou The train is ticking down the tracks; I’m waiting patiently to run to the back seat without being too aggressive. I need... Continue Reading →
Love Don’t Love You
February. It's still the beginning of the year. We just finished setting resolutions. Now we are supposed to spend a lot of money to tell someone I love you. The concept of love is already abstract enough. No one person loves the same. There are countless books written on the art of love, how to... Continue Reading →
Ready…Set..Your Intentions
Insanity is defined by doing the same thing over and over again and then expecting different results.

"If not, you are walking through life with your fists balled up expecting people to place something in your hands. Impossible." I hate New Year's resolutions. First of all, I have a horrible memory. By the end of the year, I would never remember what I resolved to do. So I just don't make them.... Continue Reading →
Friendship Isn’t Easy
"The last thing you need is judgment when you are really trying to figure something out. We all need someone to talk to, to bounce ideas off of and get perspective." Twenty years late, I found Sex And The City and fell in love. I really don't know what I was doing when it was... Continue Reading →
Trump Won…Black People Should Wake The Hell Up
Trump won the election. Black people (and people of color), it’s time for you to wake the hell up. And because of that win, I have proof positive that I can be any freaking thing that I want in life, even if I don’t qualify. I’m not exactly sure when America will get out of... Continue Reading →
