I had to do this post sometime. The time is now. Of course, February is not the only time we celebrate love and history – but there’s no better time than the present. This story of love and legacy began way before I was born. It began in the 1950s, but was cemented in January,Continue reading “Legacy- Then and Now”

Speak To Me
This photo was taken by a friend of mine who has been honing her craft beautifully. Thank you GNC for allowing me to use this! It’s funny how we pass trees everyday but somehow ignore their magnificence. I wondered if they could speak to us, what they would say. After all, we have the sameContinue reading “Speak To Me”
This Day
Today – TWOSDAY [ Tuesday, 2/22/22]- is a one-time special day. As a little girl, I remember 7/7/77 and all the drama surrounding it. Just like mid-night 12/31/1999. I remember exactly where I was. The world was expected to come to stop on 1/1/2000. Do you remember? For some reason there are some days thatContinue reading “This Day”
I’m Here…
When death visits, it leaves us speechless at times. This unwelcomed visitor can shred our hearts to pieces. We are left breathless, unable to process the thoughts that swirl around our overwhelmed minds. What do I say? Sometimes – nothing. Just be there. For you – as you ponder where to go from here. AsContinue reading “I’m Here…”
Girl Talk
That amazing bond between girls! My sister girls how blessed we are to have each other. We become burden bearers, the arms that hold – the hands that dry the tears. The ear that listens and the voice that reminds. We celebrate, we laugh until we want to sprinkle or tinkle. We talk. Men andContinue reading “Girl Talk”
Dear John
Many of us are familiar with ‘Dear John’ letters. From what I read, the term was coined somewhere during World War II. These were letters sent to servicemen from their loves, ending a relationship. A dreaded letter, as you might imagine. Well, that’s me and my real John. That was his real name!! I won’tContinue reading “Dear John”
Reflections
Sat in my empty classroom decompressing after a 3-hour virtual class. I haven’t seen any students face-to-face since March 2020. Every now and then I go back to pictures. Whoever invented the art of picture taking – I love you. Even more amazing, is that beautiful, fascinating part of us called the mind. The storageContinue reading “Reflections”
Is This Love?
So, humor me. Did Bob Marley get an answer to his question ‘ ‘ Is this love, is this love, is this love that I’m feeling? I wanna know..”🎶💖 I don’t know if he did, but I do know most of us have asked that question a time or two. At times we have beenContinue reading “Is This Love?”
Still Standing
A former schoolmate of mine posted this picture and asked us to to title it. ‘Broken But Still Standing’. This was the thought that immediately came to mind as I looked at this house. This house that once was a home. Now broken, ignored, void of laughter and life, but still standing. As we celebrateContinue reading “Still Standing”
For Him
Recently I had a conversation with one of my sister girls – about the men in our lives. We talked about our sons. We ended our conversation with the resolve that we believe they will walk into their God-given destiny. They were born for and with a purpose. Men. They come by all different names.Continue reading “For Him”
