It is very easy to take one’s blessings for granted. Even on Thanksgiving, I had trouble remembering to give thanks because I spent the morning being overwhelmed by a freelance project on which I had been working. After about 3:00pm, I gave up and went to my parents for Thanksgiving. That was a good thing [...]

Well, I have shared a sad song playlist and a “Help Me, Jesus” playlist, now it’s time to get positive. I don’t want people to think I am all Debbie Downer, so it’s time to get happy. I have been trying to proactively be more positive. One way to help this is to fill my [...]

I wanted to see Avenue Q, when I first heard about it on Broadway, but I never got around to getting to New York to see it. Actually, there was a trip to New York planned not too long ago. I had a plane ticket and everything, but I ended up having to go on a business [...]

I really do not like concerts. I hate the idea of paying to stand up. I figure I can just sit at home and listen to the polished music at no extra charge. Still, as you can see from my concert posts, I do attend a concert from time to time, especially when they are [...]

So, I now have a little bit of finality to one of my personal situations. A final divorce judgment was entered for my marriage today, despite my fight against it. I am left without health care or any hope for reconciliation. It is well beyond time to let go. It’s just that you still have [...]

So, I went to church today, like I do most Sundays, although, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to do so, me not being a driver and all. At least for today, I made it. The sermon for today was delivered by Dallas A. Walker, Jr. and was about the purpose of the Israelites wandering [...]

Winter is my favorite season. I really missed winter when I lived in California. We had our first snowfall over the night. The snow will probably be all melted by tomorrow. Most of it even melted today. Snow usually makes me smile; however, when I woke up this morning and saw that there was snow on [...]

Okay, real “gamers” would definitely not accept me into their fold, but I still do at least play games. This is my post to petition other gamers or even “gamers” to play with me. While all of these games that I play are fun, it’s much better to play with someone, and even better to [...]

Wow! I never thought that I would see the day. Even after Obama won to be the Democratic candidate in the election, I still, honestly, did not believe that I would see the election of a person of African-American descent to the presidency of the United States of America in my lifetime. A sad thought, but [...]

It was a perfect day to get out and vote. It went up to 70 degrees in Detroit (in November!), and you only needed a light jacket for the breeze. There was no rain, nor clouds. It was bright and sunny. So, I went to the polling place with my dad. There was a long [...]
