    Grateful Travel: A Mother and Daughter Bond

    Not all of us are so lucky as to have parents by our side throughout our lives. Some of us have a deadbeat parent, some have tragically lost one, some were abandoned, some of us have chosen for one reason or another not to be in our parent’s life. I am reminded daily by people…

    Just Not “THAT” Girl

    I am just not that girl. Never have been. You might be wondering, who is that girl? I don’t even know that I understand who she fully is myself but for some reason I have always longed to be her. I guess in my mind, she is the girl that things happen for. She walks…

    Open Letter To Colin Kaepernick

    Dear Colin, I hope it is okay that I called you by your first name. Mr. Kaepernick sounded too formal for somebody that I cheered for, encouraged and believed in for so many years. I am a full believer that the reality of truths is about perception of individuals and society. What I might perceive…

    Millions of viewers followed him through his quest for love with JoJo on The Bachelorette. Week after week he captured the majority of American female hearts with his hilarity, humility, humbleness, and harmony (a little alliteration for y’all right there!). Who am I talking about?

    MMA: An Appreciation of a Sport Imitating Life

    Blood, sweat and tears (none applied in a good way!). That’s about all I ever thought about the world of MMA up until this last April.
