A return to love is a return to the divine.
In this space we celebrate love, culture and community in every form. I invite you to bear witness and join me on my journey home.
Journal Prompt of the Week: What seeds are you hoping to plant in yourself this spring?
I first heard Bassey Ikpi’s voice during one of the Def Jam Poetry shows…it was clear as a bell and I felt an instant connection to her. At the time, she was known as a writer / poet but not much more. Since then, she’s become an advocate for mental health and started to speak…
I walked by this book while on one of my lunch time B&N and I couldn’t help but do a double take. The cover is beautiful and eye catching and a quick read of the back made me confident that it would be a great choice to add to my library. The name of the…
Never expected to see parrots while we were strolling through Fort Greene Park.
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/strike-a-chord/ I’ve played a few instruments here and there but my best has always been my voice. Understand that when I say best, I don’t mean that I have any kind of vocal prowess; I have an average voice. My years in the church choir taught me a lot but years of not exercising that…
I dislike change. Even when it’s for the better. I’ve been going through a lot of growing pains and while I’m excited for what the future holds, I would be lying if I didn’t admit I was shit scared of the unknown. The biggest thing for me is: What do I love enough to sacrifice…
Reading has always been like music to me. I could close my eyes and see the words hovering above me in the air…taking shape into the story,character’s laughter weaving spells around me, landscapes enveloping me…so it’s no surprise that I would use it the same way most people use music; to help process. There are…
With the start of this year’s World Cup I’ve started to feel better and worse. As a Caribbean and South American Woman; it’s such an exciting time for us. The idea of the World Cup being hosted so close to home, in a continent where almost every country plays the sport (we have 9 national…
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. But some who wander are lost..and I count myself among them for now. It’s been a tough month; Mother’s Day brought up a…
The quote alone is amazing but this is a must read for aspiring writers:
I traded up my Fitbit Flex for a Polar Loop so I will use it for a few weeks then give a full review here are are the basics so far: I love that I can use the loop to tell time. The Flex didn’t have that feature. While the loop is larger is is…
Snapped while reading. I really always have a problem with the insistence that Jesus would have been white but that’s not my battle to fight. The Color Complex: Kathy Russel, Midge Wilson and Ronald Hall. This is my second read through and it was less devastating this time around. I could take the emotion out…
I forget that I own a good camera. The thing about it is, I don’t really know that much about it. I use mostly automatic settings. I am under no illusion that I’m a photographer. Good Camera = / = Photographer. I originally wanted to take some photographs…
