These may seem like self-appreciating, yet insignificant … Continue reading Getting My &*#@ Together Series: I, Too, Can Catch These Hands
I keep saying this week’s blog post is going to be about routine and its importance, but judging from the sporadic release of these blogs, I don’t think I’m the beacon of hope for sharing my thoughts on the subject. I figured we could just put that off until a later date while … Continue reading Getting My &*#@ Together Series: USE – YOUR – WORDS
This week’s blog was going to focus on the importance of establishing a routine, but I forgot tomorrow IS VALENTINE’S DAY!

By now we’ve all heard about Mo’Nique’s plea to boycott Netflix. Before I launch into my take on the situation, let me first say that I applaud sis for standing up for herself. As women, we live in a world that tells us to be invisible; not to speak too loudly. I can’t … Continue reading A Few Things We All Can Learn from Our Sister Mo’Nique

And while that may be a more impactful statement a few months from now (being that it’s still January), I still think it says a lot. But to the subject at hand: dating is a huge bag … Continue reading Single in the City: Three Types of Guys I’ve Encountered in My Single Life

Love … Relationships … “Situationships” … Whatever we decide to call it, we can’t deny it’s the most puzzling dynamic between two people. It’s been written about since “man” first put pen to paper and the topic never gets old.

There is love and then there is love. The word is the same, but two very distinct and individual experiences, as the depth of love is limitless.
