Not a feeling, Not an emotion. A choice of mind, A state of heart, A deliberate decision of commitment. Love redefined; void of the sex yardstick. Rid of the biology and chemistry of bodily attraction. True mutual understanding. Not the “I love you ” when everything goes your way. That is selfishness defined. I love…… Continue reading LOVE REDEFINED.
Boycott Valentine
Is it possible for us all to boycott Valentine’s day this year? I am not against love or anything like that but I just feel like the true meaning of the day is misunderstood and misused.

While some of these expectations come from a good place and hence justifiable, I believe it is really up to the individual to decipher what he or she deems fit or right. Bottom line, do whatever…… Continue reading BE YOU, DO YOU.

It was after that, I decided not to take anything likely, not living anything to chance anymore.…… Continue reading Without Regret
Afro is 1.
A year sure does come quickly. It feels like just yesterday when I took the step to make my writing more public than private and I have never looked back since.
