I am Black and Beautiful in the skin color Golden Brown
I used to be shy and it made me frown
Not knowing where I was going, I always knew I wanted a Crown
The uncertainties of life, sometimes get you down
But I heard, keeping your head up is where all blessings are found
But where could I find one, since I'm new in town
I started walking around and as I looked up, I saw the crown and it was in that box that was around the hallway and the box was also round.
Now I feel good that I found my Crown.

If This, Than That
This past year is one that we will never forget. Most of us have grown weary with the waiting. Trying to be creative with the time that we have has been a challenge for most of us. When we first entered into isolation, it was difficult for some of us, especially little children with no one to play with. I read a sad story about a little boy who couldn't take it. He was just too lonely. Even though his parents tried to do what they could to help him, they couldn't take him anywhere to be helped.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
