my bottom lip
the gap in my teeth
the fullness of my breast
my laughter
my coolness
they way I look at you from across the room
the dream of maybes, ifs and buts
my focus
my strength
my passion
my love of God
my love for my child(ren)
the thickness of my thighs
the way I remind you of a Hersey's kiss
my smile
the thought you had last night
the thought you had this morning
the thought you're having right now

are the reasons why I'm so fly......

Rhonda,Rhonda....You are blessed with that special gift of telling true life stories that touch the heart...
What's even more wonderful is that these are the stories of your life...There is no love as beautiful as that shared by children and parents...How I wish every male that God blew breath into could be an example to their children in the way they lived and shared life..So that when their children became adults they would have good memories of Dad and even better role models to emulate. Nothing is perfect about this place we call home but that would be one more step in the direction of perfect....
One of the reasons why I joined your blog was because I read about the relationship you had with your dad and how it took years for you to get to this point in your relationship with him...I admire you for making the effort to reconcile...For giving him the chance to return to your life and to be a friend. Some people are never given a second chance with an estranged parent and they remain strangers to one the most beautiful experiences in life..The love shared between a parent and child...You are blessed,for God works in mysterious ways...
Respect.....C....

Confessions of a Recovering Misogynist" by Kevin Powell

In the past few weeks, I've had the opportunity to have very brief conversations with Kevin Powell. Its very interesting to speak with someone with similar passions for community service. As someone who has been very transparent on her blog, I find this essay by Kevin refreshing. I just happen to see this on Facebook as someone posted it many months ago. Thanks KP. I AM A SEXIST MALE. I take no great pride in saying this, I am merely stating a fact. It is not that I was born this way-rather, I was born into this male-dominated society, and consequently, from the very moment I began forming thoughts, they formed in a decidedly male-centered way. My "education" at home with my mother, at school, on my neighborhood playgrounds, and at church, all placed males in the middle of the universe. My digestion of the 1970s American popular culture in the form of television, film, ads, and music only added to my training, so that by as early as age nine or ten I saw females, includ...

Aquarius Rising - Authentically Me

Aquarius Rising - Sy Smith I'm not one to really get into Zodiac signs and yet I'm fascinated the astrological relationship to our spirits. I know we all still blame the moon for man's "lunacy". When I read about the sign of Aquarius, I'm taken by how much it does describe me. I'm not guided by astrology but I do recognize its connection to the Universe. Some don't realize how man used astrology throughout the bible as a guide for God's people. But this isn't about astrology and the Christian faith but me being the fabulous Aquarius female that I am. This is me, basically...READ ON Aquarius (The Sun is in Aquarius from approximately January 20 to February 18, depending on the year). One of the standout characteristics of those born under the Sun Sign of Aquarius is their unwillingness to follow the beaten track. With ...
