Love Stuck
Love , Emotions, Relationships - so weird, so unexplainable, so not easy!
The only law is the law of the heart
Follow your heart, be free
Experience what life has for you
Most importantly, be honest
If your relationship is real,
It will bear the strain and
deepen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or what about being inexplicably drawn to someone for no rhyme or reason. Ever have that feeling?

I think we are drawn to the light that we can recognize in each
other, shining in its own unique way.
Every person is unique, therefore
every relationship is unique.
We are magnetically drawn to others who we
sense are on a similar frequency to ourselves. We feel a kinship with them, and
I think somewhere deep down, being able to relate to someone awakens the memory of Oneness, and we long to return to this Oneness again.

Some Ignorant Ish....
Sometimes I wish I wasn't so damn responsible...
like you know the saying of "those who know better do better"...well god dammit, i don't want to know better, I don't want to know shit, I want to live my life and spend like there ain't no tomorrow...
If I didn't know better, I would forgo paying my mortgage and buy my dream car, a range...
like I could sleep and eat in that car, who needs an apartment or house or 401K?
But no, here I am being financially responsible....driving in lil ole Betsy, reliable but not a RANGE!
This financially responsible shit better pay off 4 realz for all the sacrifices my ego is making right now... 4 realz...and its not just my ego but all the other responsibilities that come with being so damn responsible...
strangely though, something tells me that it is...

New Year New Ish- To Give Up or Not?
Damn Damn Damn
How long has it been
a couple months I think...ok maybe just one...that Sha or I wrote
we have been going through major drama with re-developing our website. Every time we try to get our website re-done (www.empressmag.com) something happens, a web designer disappears or disappoints. I can't even count the times we thought we were close to getting somewhere, to the next level, and bam nothing happens, our dreams are shattered.
Honestly, sometimes I just want to give up. How many times are you supposed to try something before shit gives? How many times can you take disappointment? What the hell is the point?
But something keeps us going, not sure what it is because we seem to have been running in a circle for a while now, but running in circles beats laying down and giving up.... at least we're in shape right?
WHEN Empress reaches its full potential, Sha and I will have a story to tell. We won't give up...we can't.... we came this far and what would be the point for all this hard work, money & time spent.
Viva La Empress....

Holla At Me
Damn I haven't blogged since Obama won. What the hell!
Why is it a Sunday and I'm sipping? Oh well, such is life.
So this weekend was a bit slow. Friday I went to one of my favorite restaurants in Bklyn..oooh how I love that place. If they didn't cost so much I would go there every week.
Went to a reggae party on Friday and suprisingly it got crowded pretty early (1am). I was surprised because all the Jamaican parties I usually go to, I take a nap in the corner by the speaker..lol...then wake up at 3am when everyone shows up. Sorry, I get to the club before they start charging. I don't see the purpose in paying unless it's someone's birthday or Christmas uhmm maybe even Thanksgiving.
But this was the cool thing about this particular party. I was able to sneak a water bottle of jesus water into the spot. They weren't checking bags when my homegirl and I walked in. Then I thought, let me see if I can get that bottle in here.
I walked back to the car. sidenote: Don't you hate when you have to sneak into your own damn car cause there are so many other ppl waiting for a park that when they see you pull out your key they are on your ass. "you leaving", they'll ask. "Nah", now please move on because I'm by myself and yall look suspect as hell. I put an empty water bottle into my purse along with the Jesus juice as a decoy. I walked into the club and the bouncer said "open your bag" and he saw the water bottle, but low and behold mama had the alcohol in a secret compartment. I got in with my juice, I'll def be returning there again.
Why was that the highlight of my night...lmaoo. Saturday was chilled, finally picked up my dinner table and just chilled with the parentals. Anywho, how did your weekend go?

OBAMA WINS!!!!!!!!!!
I'M CRYING!!!!!! I'm not the one for tears but this got to me. Our first black president, do you know what this means. There is a black woman who will be in a white house who won't be a slave, who won't be the help. Just years ago our grandparents couldn't vote and now we have a black man in the white house. Damn yall.Oh Obama I hope there will be change and you will show us even more history making. McCain you gave him a good fight but Obama is the man. Now as I watch McCain speaking, I see the tears welling up in his eyes. But it will be ok, there will be change, there has to be CHANGE.
Young people there is no excuse anymore. With our first black president, there is not limit.
First people I spoke to: My Dad, DKH, JSM, DAG, CDA.
Where was I: At home, in WB, sippin on that...
I will never forget this day.

Almost Missing
I find myself missing someone I shouldn’t. I hate when that happens and it usually occurs between “my boo” stages. It's when I just stopped dating someone and now I’m creeping for the next boo..lol. But why do I miss him?
I could be myself around him. I could curse, drink, yell and do other things without him looking at me weird or making me feel uncomfortable. That type of guy is hard to come by. The type, where you can sleep on his bare chest and drool (yeah when I’m that damn sleepy anything can happen lol) and when you wake up and realize what happened and your embarrassed as hell he wipes the spit off his chest and says “don’t worry about it” and puts your head back on his chest. DAMN! Or he’ll give you his last 20 dollars so you can get your hair done because he felt that is what a man should do.
But we’re not together for a reason. Although he showed me attention and cared for me, it wasn’t meant to last. He loved his homeboys way too much, he went to jail twice for 30 days and never told me why, what type of shit is that. To this day I still can’t believe I let him get away with that one lol. His ex, at the time I’m pretty sure she wasn’t his ex, kicked in the door while I was there (that’s another story). Then after a while he was just broke and didn’t want to do anything with his life but party and buy clothes. He wasn’t the dependable guy I knew before and I was over it.
So I guess I just miss the good things because the bad things are way up there too. I wonder how he’s doing it’s been a few months since we last spoke and he usually reappears every other month. So hopefully he’s happy or maybe missing me just a little too…haha.
