Spending quality time with my Best friend (me), jermaine and damien (God's gift), james, joshua and jordyn (my joy) sonja (jermaine's gift to our family), sitting at the feet of our family matriachs and elders, hanging out with my sisters and cousins and other family members(the sane and the insane - you know who you are), my nieces and nephews (the clones), extended family and true friends. Can't imagine this journey without God and Music. Living, Loving, Laughing, Culture, Art, Shopping, Travel, Reading, Solitude, Health, Spirituality, Faith, Film, Cute Shoes, Fly Handbags, Real People, Sunsets,Great Food, Good Wine, Fine Linens, Beautiful Things and a body of water(preferably the Ocean) are all very necessary to my existence.
Can't wait to meet my children's children. My ancestors, Malcolm, Martin, Harriet, Sojourner and anyone else who gave their lives in the struggle for this thing we call freedom. Barack Obama, Jacqueline Onassis, Basquiat, The(Oakland)Black Panthers, Assata Shakur. All of the creative poets, artists, actors, dancers, writers, photographers, authors, musicians, performers, playwrights and everyday people that brought the Harlem Renaissance to life.

I'm blessed to have never had to look outside my family for heroes. My mama (the Blueprint)for loving me beyond measure, always making me feel special, showing me that with faith in God anything is possible and by setting the example for my life by living her life with so much grace. My daddy (the Prototype) for loving us all like we were his own and for showing us everyday how a man should treat a woman and letting us know that we were worthy of nothing less, because of his love, i'll NEVER settle. jermaine and damien (no greater love)pure and unconditional - nobody does it better, their love continues to sustain me and to think...they chose me. james and angie(the example)for showing all of us what real love looks, acts and feels like. my sisters (the mirrors) for letting me see myself in 3-D, my aunts uncles and cousins (for showing up and showing out), my true friends(the village that surrounds me) and last but not least my grandparents (The Architects) for laying the foundation, walking the walk and holding us all accountable for ourselves and each other. their strength,courage,love and wisdom go with me everywhere and their inability to tell me "no" is the reason i have issues with that word to this day.
