"What are you made of?" If you can figure it out your a champ! I'm made of Curry Powder, Naan, Silk, Shiva & Sarasvati - Corn, Feathers, Coyotes, Agayvlige& Akbaalia - Cowry Shells, Warm Mudd, Djembe Drums and Oshun - Menorahs, Dreidels, Castles and Earl Grey Tea. (Think hard) LOL
I am a dancer by nature a lover by nurture. I am a world traveler and seeker. I am both the head and the tail. A balance between day and night. An artist, a big sister, a daughter, a diva, a disco queen, a souljah, the student and the teacher,a nerd, a woman of God, a wild child, selfish, giving, the servant, the master, a country kid, a big city girl. I love solidarity yet find peace in solitary. Simple in my complexity. I have many friends but, only those who have experienced that last statement are the ones who know me.
I think that's all i will leave you with. I am feeling deep right now..just go with it : )

Those who are real enough to expose their past situations are the ones who become real heroes to others who are still in the struggle.
