PEACE. LOVE. HAPPINESS. Herbal or Natural Healing, Green Living (environmental issues), Natural birth, Home Birth Human Rights, home schooling or reschooling, writing/poetry, volleyball, becoming a doula, assisting midwives, breast feeding advocate, changing our prison system and the system we have in the government, I like to read a lot, learning is fundamental and one should always seek truth. I am also interested in anthropolgy, I want to play the guitar, get a law degree and be in a broadway play or be a back up dancer for Beyonce or Janet...it just looks fun.
Everyone. Maybe not face to face, but I think if you saw me and I saw you and we were both smiling, it would change our day for the better. Almost like if I offered you a cold and juicy piece of fruit on a nice sunny day.
I cannot list all of the musicians that I love, music is beautiful and it can change perspective. Here are a few ...Lalah Hathaway and her daddy, Chaka Khan, Prince, Stevie Wonder, Corinne Bailey Rae, Eddie Palmerie, Joshua Redman, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Youssou N'Dour, Ani DeFranco, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Tracy Chapman, Baaba Maal, Bid Daddy Kane, Badu, Climbing Poetree, Rap up until the mid 90's (there are some great beats out, but the lyrics are crazy now), Carly Simon, Digable Planets, Issa Bagayogo, Bob Marley and sons, Anita Baker, Khalilah Ali, Adonis, Amel, Sting, U2, The Bangles, The Beatles, there's so much good music, hard to go on.
Love Jones, The Royal Tenanbaums, Roger and Me, Kama Sutra, Sankofa, Pendimonium, Napoleon Dynamite, Claudine, The Best Man, Steel Magnolias, The Hours, The Others, City of God, The Drug Years, Wedding Crashers, The Other Sister
I'm done! Not really, need to be though.
Books are wonderful, that is how I have traveled most of my life. I really love J. California Cooper. I am a periodical junkie in regard to my vocations and I am currently reading Why Worry. I have also been reading the blogs of my myspace friends and I must say, it is very enlightening ... I have found out that some of you are lunatics, lol.
I have many heroes beside me and many heroes in my ancestors. My husband and my children are the most divine beings. I have been thinking of my dad so much it is coming out of my pores. I miss him and feel that right now I am sharing a lot of his spirit with you, so everyone raise a tea cup, a glass, a hand to my dad, who I must say resembles Haile Selassie, Richard Pryor, and Bob Marley. Does that make sense?
