In my Journey

In my 20’s it was All Good.

In my 30’s it was about Finding Myself- Questioning.

In my 40’s is has been about Embracing -  I am Worthy .

I wonder what’s next.
 
In this journey of life.

It's all About


It’s all about progress
It’s all about moving forward
It’s all about growth
It’s all about an understanding
It’s all about being better
It’s all about ………..

We Are Attached

You are attached to me
And I am attached to you
Yes, some days you let me have my way
But most times it’s up to you
It took more than 20 years to truly appreciate you
And not conform to what people said about you
As of today
I love you
for all that you give
Beauty and uniqueness
The questions
The admirers
It’s all about you
Sometimes you let me choose
what to do
But, sometimes
It does not work out
Like I saw on YOU-TUBE 
Kinky
Curly
Straight
Braids
Or all out
Fake or not
We are attached
No matter how we stand
With our strands
Because we are attached.

We


You are the musical instrument

While I am the sheet of music

What a beautiful combination we make.

The Kitchen


The Kitchen

A place to Escape

A place to hear silence

But not

I can hear the motor of the refrigerator

The birds outside the window

The sounds of the tires hitting the pavement of the streets

The Kitchen

A place to Escape

To gather ones thoughts

To take some time alone

As I eat……

I feel the warmth of the food touch my tongue

The sound of the bread as I bite down and chew

As I take another bite from my fork

I have a new thought of a peace

The Kitchen

A place to Escape

Yes, You Do!
