Last year I posted, For the Love of Aging which I now call the women's version of aging gracefully. Seems when I see or hear commercials about women aging the commercials have a list of symptoms that we as women experience such as hot flashes, incontinence, weight gain, mood swings, depression, lack of desire, …
Passing the Torch
A dear friend's daughter is having a baby. The baby shower was a few weeks ago. It's been a while since I've been to a baby shower. I was super excited. Adding to my excitement, I had not seen my dear friend in over a year, I was going to Atlanta, and this is where …
Farewell 2018, Hello 2019
Ah! Another year is upon us. As I say farewell to 2018 and usher in 2019 I reflect on what a great year 2018 was and how thankful I am to have made it through. I didn't make a new year resolution last year and somehow I made it out of 2018 with elevation, successes, …
PRECIOUS LIFE!
I had a car accident recently. An accident I thought was not so bad. I didn't realize adrenaline was in control when I thought, not so bad. Once the adrenaline rush wore off I experienced the full brunt of the accident and how the effects of two cars crashing together interrupted the natural flow of …
IS LOVE JUST CHEMISTRY
Week after week as I determine what I'm going to write, there is never a doubt that I will write about love. The doubt lies in deciding if I should share on a personal level, talk hypothetically or share what I’ve learned from talking to the masses. Somehow in the hypothetical my personal shows …
LOVE DEFINED
What an interesting weekend, action-packed! I love being spontaneously busy. The spontaneity helps keep my mind focused on creativity which allows me to let go of the trivial concerns that can block the creative process. I talk about love all the time. I write poetry focused on love. I even created a podcast to share …
“QUEEN OF SOUL”
The passing of Aretha Franklin has surprisingly affected me on such an emotional level. I was not ready for this flood of emotion. I was not ready to re-live my childhood and experience the full essence of my mother. My mother embodied the same unapologetic persona that Aretha did. Aretha Franklin was much like a …
THIS THING CALLED LOVE
At times this thing called love is so perplexing. We are born to love. Some don't get the love they need in the early stages of life and that lack of love affects the way they love for a lifetime. I’ve learned from my own experiences and talking to so many people from all walks of life, that no …
FINDING FABIAN
There is this saying that we've all heard time and time again. The saying I believe, transcends every culture, race, and nationality. That saying is, "IT TAKES A VILLAGE". What does that mean? It takes a village for what? Do we truly dwell as a village any longer? The village seems synonymous with what is …
Unconditional Love
Love, love, love and more love. Me being single I wonder at times, am I the best person to be writing about love? As I ponder this question my answer is always yes! I have love, I am loved, receive love and give love. I'm single now but was not always single. I was …
