LOVE, So many people use your name in vain
LOVE, Those who have faith in you sometimes go astray
LOVE, Through all the ups and downs the joy and hurt
LOVE, For better or worse I still will choose you first
Hoping your day and every day is filled with Love. Let every day be Valentine’s Day

“Lookin’ back over my years
I guessed, I’ve shedded some tears
Told myself time and time again
This time I’m gonna win…”

A Blast From Past Packed With Food For Thought.
Janet Jackson “Rhythm Nation”
With music by our side
To break the color lines
Lets work together
To improve our way of life
Join voices in protest
To social injustice
A generation full of courage
Come forth with me
People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life
We are a part of the Rhythm Nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers we can get it right
One time
We are apart of the Rhythm Nation

There are certain things from childhood that just stay with you…When I was a kid, I went to summer camp at the YWCA, where I met all of these wonderful kids that I thought would be my lifetime friends.
We use to sing “That’s What Friends are For” and I guess I really took it to heart lol. Once we hit 5th and 6th grade we out grew the Y, went our separate ways, and lost contact with each other. So much for lifetime friendship right? Maybe not.

Since 2002, Father’s Day has been a day of reflection for me. I don’t usually go any where, do anything, or take any calls (or make any for that matter). I sit back relax and remember my dad. Last year I wrote a Tribute to Fathers, in hopes of:

Martin Luther King, Jr.’s last speech April 3rd 1968
“Thank you very kindly, my friends. As I listened to Ralph Abernathy in his eloquent and generous introduction and then thought about myself, I wondered who he was talking about. It’s always good to have your closest friend and associate say something good about you. And Ralph is the best friend that I have in the world.
I’m delighted to see each of you here tonight in spite of a storm warning. You reveal that you are determined to go on anyhow. Something is happening in Memphis, something is happening in our world.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a United States holiday marking the birthdate of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., observed on the third Monday of January each year, around the time of King’s birthday, January 15. It is one of four United States federal holidays to commemorate an individual person.
King was the chief spokesman of the nonviolent civil rights movement, which successfully protested racial discrimination in federal and state law. He was assassinated in 1968.
The campaign for a federal holiday in King’s honor began soon after his assassination. Ronald Reagan signed the holiday into law in 1983, and it was first observed in 1986. At first, some states resisted observing the holiday as such, giving it alternative names or combining it with other holidays. It was officially observed in all 50 states for the first time in 2000. —Wikipedia
