An Angel in Her Calling
In a place full of hurt, hate, and humans not being happy i need to call on the angels. One in specific. Her name is Ziyah. The purest of pure, kindest of kind and sweeter than sweet. She exists in a heaven on earth kind of paradise. One that only allows the elite to navigate to and through.

“Hate In Our Hearts”
As Kenya sipped her mocha decaf cappuccino at the Starbucks near the motionless traffic, she could remember it like yesterday when she first laid eyes on her soon to be husband...Jake. "Hi Mrs. Love, I'm Mariana the wedding planner" said a beautiful young woman with the most amazing eyes. Kenya wasn't used to being called "Mrs. Love" so the greeting was off guard towards her but she gave Mariana a hug then went right into business by asking "Can you make sure we have these daisies" pointing to the flower box outside the window of her table. Mariana wrote it down with no hesitations. "Mrs. Love I know we talked for about two hours but I need to ask" Mariana said with a face of confusion. "Does Mr. Love have any guest of his own for his side of the wedding? I know you said you wanted something small just about 75 people tops, but you didn't mention any of Mr. Love's guests". Kenya dreaded her question but knew it was coming, but as she opened her mouth Jake walked in with their 9 month old daughter Jacky.

Stopping a Cycle Of Violence
November 2nd, 2016 exactly one year 79 days since my older brother's life was taken over a half-ounce of weed. I turned 18 six months in May earlier that year. Just bought my first new vehicle, quit my job to go back to high school, got a lady and good friend with me. Life was decent, reacted in a positive way to my brother's passing. Setting a great example for my family. Now the NBL world series is on and it is Chicago Cubs VS Cleveland Indians Top of the 9th game 7 tied up 6-6… Not even a big baseball fan but this legendary game and moment in sports so got my interest. Chicago hasn't won a World Series in 108 years, and they have their chance for some big swings. The pitcher hit many fouls, the first batter walked to first base. Then all of a sudden the softest, the quietest knock happens at my front door. Chicago Cubs' reputation was on the line, just as much as my life...

Black Wombman
What does it mean to be black woman of midnight hue? A question that has held the world in captivity. When I look in the mirror who do I see staring back at me? Is it a beautiful African queen who swam in the warmth of Sudan’s Red Sea, whose eyes are the darkest ebony? Whose skin has been baptized by a sun kissed copper glow that inflames mere men to seek to enslave this great and wondrous form. Whose attention is more sought after than the diamonds of Botswana? Or whose nurturing hypnotic hips has birthed and nourished a nation… no a civilization.

Birthday Presents
Let me preface this by saying: I don't like celebrating my birthday. My birthday followed a traumatic event for me a few years ago and I just have not enjoyed celebrating it since then. I suffer from depression and several other mental ailments according to a therapist, and my birthday triggers all of it.

Believe, Be Happy & Trust Love
When people think of doing a good deed, people think of buying a cup of coffee for the person behind them in line, or buying someone lunch, or by simply giving them something that they can really use or something that they really need. Although those are really good deeds that I know will make a huge impact in someone's day, because I have had that done for me before, and trust me, it truly made me feel so warm and happy inside, that I never thought someone would ever do it for me. I believe that giving someone their beliefs back, or their happiness, or simply an act of true kindness, like a simple smile, can truly change someone's life and make a huge impact. I believe that a simple act of true kindness can be a good deed for someone in need of it.

Not a Regular Day
Not just a regular day I woke up on this day and got my son ready like any other day. I had the beginnings of a migraine so it really wasn’t a normal day. I got myself ready in full pt gear. I dropped my son off at daycare and drove to the morning pt spot. I wasn’t staying to do the morning exercises as my migraine was intensifying by the minute.

The answers Book
I am going to ask this book I have called “The Answers” – By Neil Somerville. I will be asking some questions about life and humanity in general. I am going to flick through the pages until my body and mind tells me to stop and that will be my answer.

The inevitable will always be the down of the guard. It's the moment you think trust is being rebuilt, the moment severed strings of your connections feel like they fuse back together seamlessly, the moment your love for them seems boundless again... the inevitable... creeps back.
