I’ve learned a few things about love. I’ve also learned to discern between love and infatuation. Some lessons more cruel than others. Some moments more endearing and heart felt but what’s important is that they were all appreciated. I’ve learned that to love another and appreciate being loved really does start from within. Not just...

Change Is Real And Growing Up Ain’t For Kids …
A lot has happened in the past few months. The year is almost half way through and I’m proud to say that I’ve checked off two items on my list. Oh forgive me for being rude, apologies for my silence like I said a lot has been happening. Over the past month, I’ve come to...

The Almost Naked Truth …
So I’ve taken up the Lingerie Goddess’s 30 day lingerie diet by Margaret Shrum. It is basically a month long excercise to inspire and develop your sensuality as a woman. My love for lingerie is the reason I joined this diet on a quest to learn more and feed my obsession. Initially I thought that...

1976 – A Country Re-Imagined (End)

1976 – A Country Re-Imagined (Part 3)
It seemed so surreal, the words coming out of the dining room radio. My family and I were huddled around it in a tense silence, stunned. As if he could tell that we were struggling to comprehend what he said, the announcer on Radio Freedom, in an anguished voice, repeated, “They said it was an...

One gets the sense that “something is happening” for the local industry. Following on the massive success of “Love Is A Four Letter Word”, it has been...

Why I Love Black Men …
There’s always reason for us black women to complain about that ‘no good, lazy ass black man’. He’s always portrayed as a philandering, beer-guzzling specimen whose only worthwhile contribution has been sustaining an ancient myth about his ‘to-be-feared-by-god’ loins, which make him desirable to even the most chaste of virgins. Well, I want to be...

The Burden of Emotion
I call it the burden of emotion, that “I’m okay” we all like saying when you really are not. You get to a point when you know that the burden of your emotional truth may not exactly get you the sympathy or the shoulder that you are so desperately in need of. There are a lot...
