About Me

There is no one way to describe who I am and what I stand for. I am made up of all of my life's experiences and the experiences that others have shared with me. Each rise and fall that I have experienced has been recorded into my memory and ingrained into my character. I met a 72 year old man who told me that if he knew at my age, what he now knows at 72, it wouldn't have been fair. He told me to love life. That I should never have to prove anything to anyone. He said that being myself was enough. I hugged a 50+ year old woman (you know women don't like to tell their exact age, lol) who told me that I was already beautiful and that I would one day grow into my greatness. She said that I should embrace E-V-E-R-Y moment in life. After all, I can't understand the good ones, if I don't experience the bad ones. She said that I should never want to be anyone other than the person I am, because the person I want to be in the future is the person I am today. I met a 70 year old lady who told me to enjoy my youth, because when you get old, no one cares about you. I met an author who told me not to give up on black men. He said that there are some good ones left and that I should not be discouraged. I watched a child play lacrosse, fall down and immediately get back up while dusting the dirt off of her knee. I looked at my life and realized that E-V-E-R-Y outcome, whether good or bad, was based off of a simple decision. Even fate can be manipulated by the decisions that I make. ALL OF THESE ENCOUNTERS AND REALIZATIONS TOOK PLACE TODAY. They all happened because I MADE THE DECISION to open myself up to everything that life has to offer. Today I realized that there is no such thing as a bad day. A bad day is simply a day when all of the effects from the bad decisions that you made pile up at your doorstep and force you to deal with the monster that you have created. You can either buckle under pressure and sulk or you can immediately open yourself up to a solution and proper guidance that will prohibit you from making bad decisions in the future. Guidance, such as the gift of wisdom that the 72 year old man bestowed upon me. Guidance can be found by watching the child who falls down and gets back up, never quitting. Love hard, as if your heart had never been broken. Live life and realize that regardless of your religious beliefs, you only get ONE LIFE on this earth. I have dreamed peoples' deaths since I was ten. The burden of knowing someone's death date has drove me insane for 14 years, but it has taught me a valuable lesson. Life is precious and oh so fragile. Live everyday with the idea that when you close your eyes tonight you may never open them again.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -Marianne WilliamsonPic below: Me getting my graffiti on at an art show in Los Angeles.

Your Rising Sign is Gemini
You often feel torn between two dominant personalities.
Sometimes you're adaptable and friendly; other times indecisive and unsure.

No matter what, you're the life of the party or conversation.
Witty and talkative, you entertain with your stories and gossip.

It's a bit difficult for you to finish what you start - jobs, friendships, relationships...
There's so much you want to try. You often bite off more than you can chew. What's Your Rising Sign?
Sounds Like: Love & Hate.
