Breathe..It's Not as Deep as You Think
Reliving past experiences can be daunting but necessary for growth. So I'm going travel back in time and tell you about when I decided to take a risk and live in the moment. Being spontaneous was never my strong suit as well as taking the time to smell the roses. After my divorce, I decided to live a little and dive back into the dating scene. I never dated outside of my race for reasons that made logical sense to me. Being an African-American woman, dating someone of your own race seemed like the ideal thing to do. Plus, I didn't want to feel like a sell-out for crossing into certain territories. Despite my unease with the possible pursuit of someone who wasn't Black I decided to try it. For once, I wanted to be spontaneous.
