Again?
This is becoming the norm. Every few weeks we lose another innocent black man to senseless, unnecessary, unwarranted police brutality and violence. I've begun to wonder what If anything can be done to stop this rampant issue. What's most disturbing about these scenarios is that while the families of the lost loved ones must endure the media and burying there deceased family members. The law enforcement officers that are pulling the triggers are going on with there lives with little to know consequences. Paid Administrative leave is the current punishment of Terence Crutchers killer.
How does that convey justice to the family that he left behind? It doesn't. They must suffer not only the loss of life but also the blatant injustice of the heinous crime. Guys, I'm tired. The Police violence against our black men has caused me to see things so much clearer. It has shown me what I have always known to be true but hesitated to acknowledge. That as black people our lives are not held to the same value as those whose skin lack melanin. The saddest part is that alot of us are still so blinded to this fact, that we continue to oppress one another.
Until next time Stay Blessed and Beautiful my loves #Smooches

The Giver Of All Things
I've trusted in lots of people and things in my life. They all had the same ending. They eventually let me down. One Morning I arrived to the Metro in just enough time to get me to my destination. The train broke down. That handsome guy that I met and fell head over heels in love with, turned out to be a wolf in sheep's clothing. I went to my same nail tech to have my gels refilled and the next day my nail broke. People and things can often times let you down and end up causing you pain. Just when you think it's a stable and consistent situation. There goes the neighborhood and the chips start falling all over your head. However, there is one that we can trust in and he has promised to never leave us nor forsake us. I often wonder why as humans we place so much more trust in the world and it's fickleness than we do in the one that gives and provides all for us. I'm not exempt from this myself. I have a tendency to believe and trust in everyone and everything besides God our Father. The fact is, he is loyal, faithful and is always there for us even when we're not there for ourselves.
It's an area in my life that God is currently working on in me. I'm learning to lean on him and him alone in spite of what the situation's may appear to be.

Thanks But No Thanks
Oh em gee !!! I've Missed you guys so much. I had to take a hiatus.. You know ,a moment to regroup. But ize back. With plenty tea and juice!! Well guys, recently I had an opportunity to run into a gentleman that was doing pretty darn well for himself economically. He had all of the things that money could buy. Houses, cars, vacationed often and it appeared that he kept a really good eye on his finances in terms of maintenance. Outwardly he was every woman's dream guy. One night he invited me over to hang out. (No y'all not Netflix and chill). I went, only because there was a slight interest and I was curious about this giy. For more than one reason. I got there and he eagerly gave me the bachelor pad tour. It was nice. Really nice. I was impressed and I let him know that he was a great decorator and housekeeper. After I left, he called me to let me know that he didn't feel as if I was enthusiastic enough about his "stuff" (what?) I reiterated to him that his place and cars and pictures and decor were fantastic
But, that I wasn't necessarily head over heels with his assets. He couldn't understand it. He even made mention of how most women fall in love with his belongings. I has to let him know repeatedly that, material things are nice to look at. And also nice to have . But for me I need so much more to be smitten. I need character Witt honesty, consistency and emotion. I know in this day in time when everything that glitters and blings gets the most attention it may seem strange but. Those things are ever fleeting and always being upgraded and replaced for something newer. Give me substance over the miscellaneous any day. It's what lasts even after the new model comes out..
Remember y'all that iPhone 6 plus was just the it item 6 months ago. And now folks are upgrading for the New 7.
