Dear 2009,
You were a very interesting year. I celebrated your arrival without any knowledge of what you had in store. You brought ups and downs as most every year does. I was given hope by the inauguration of the United States first black President, Barack Obama. I was given trust issues, but worked them out all in the name of loving someone, flaws and all. I learned to love ”in spite of” and...

Afterglow
13th of December Beginning of winter Blurry evening Right after dinner Soaking in sweat You and me Half in and out of jeans, tee shirts, and sheets You on my side Me on your back Passion subsides The room goes black Both laying in wet spots Smiles on display Hoping we won’t ever stop Feeling this way You stretch and I yawn We each reach out for the other Energy gone Holding on to one another...

Quote of the Day
What we call our destiny is truly our character, and that character can be altered. The knowledge that we are responsible for our actions and attitudes does not need to be discouraging, because it also means that we are free to change this destiny. One is not in bondage to the past which has shaped our feelings, race, inheritance, background. All this can be altered if we have the courage to...
