They come in all faces, races, ages, sizes, and shapes. They give my world flavor, shine, and beauty of a special kind. Welcome to my world – ‘a many splendored thing’!

Hello Me
Lesson Learned: ‘Put your oxygen mask on first before assisting others’. An important life lesson I choose to continue to embrace as I enter this new year.

It’s spring break here in my county! That there ☝🏾is where I’d love to be – exploring my native island. Not possible this year, so I’ll embrace my mini staycation here in the Sunshine State. Funny how as we get older we learn to make the most of our reality. Our sophisticated temper tantrums areContinue reading “Where I’d Love to Be”
