I am here for Friends

About Me

Hmmmm...About Me...? LOL! I love to laugh. At times, I love to cry as well. I just love being who God made me to be. In my growth, I have learned that contrary to what most people think, it is my responsibility to try please everyone God places in my path(1 Corinthians 10:33). Whether or not people allow me to achieve that end is between them and God. I am discovering my purpose, and that is a beautiful thing. I am here to serve. I love giving, doing, helping, teaching, and making my world a bit better than I found it. And fulfilling the tasks of my purpose with a radiant smile!

Greece

My Lesson in Humility

I'm beautiful.  I know this, and have been confident in that for my adult life.  My beauty is not simply external, but an internal joy that is reflected in my smile, and in who I am.  S...

I have been to the Motherland!

I am not sure what I expected, but Casablanca wasn't it.  Everyone speaks Arabic and French.  The people are beautiful.  Skin tones in general range from butterscotch to light caramel.&...

It's Mothers' Day, and I just got off the phone with my mother.  I miss her.  She was telling me about my father's city council election results (he's in a run-off next month), and the outpo...

My Nose Ring

This week, I have been letting "that hole in [my] face" (as my mother calls it) heal and close up.  Why, you might ask?  Well, because I settled.  I went to Scorpion's tattoo parlor i...
