Birthday Blessings
Nothing but 32 years of God's grace... 32 years of God's mercy... 32 years of God's blessings... 32 years of prayers of my ancestors manifesting within me... I think God with every thing in me for 32 years. Today's my 32nd birthday. I normally celebrate my birthday on a getaway with the one person whom I... Continue Reading →
Letter to Mr. Perry
Dear Tyler Perry,I hope this letter reaches you in good health. (Do you remember when people really used to write that in letters?)What's up? I figured I'd dedicate today's blog to you since today is the day I normally watch your TV shows. While I admire your overall testimony and story of success... I figure... Continue Reading →
Crafting 101
Last year, I must say. I out did myself in the crafting area. It's no secret that I sometimes like to dab into crafting. Between being able to draw/paint and having a mother who always did crafts with us or projects for the house, I'd say it's almost second nature to me. I own a... Continue Reading →

I think anyone who truly knows me, knows that I've desired a dog now for about 10 years whom I wanted to name King or Prince. To my surprise, I get... Continue Reading →
Be Humble or Be Humbled
There just can't be any way that I've had a blog for 6 years and not touched on the topic of being humble. If so then I'm appalled and completely disappointed in myself. I will definitely go back and look for it.I always loved the saying "Be Humble or Be Humbled"... so much til I'd... Continue Reading →
6 years a Naturalista and Counting…
January 2011 I made the revolutionary decision to make that month's relaxer my last one. Here I am 6 years later and completely in bliss with my hair. What's crazy is that I'm often told that I don't have "bad hair" so natural works for me. Let's just say this. No matter what your hair... Continue Reading →
