Embrace your bravery.

I never understood why people looked at loving someone of the same sex as a crime. I can’t help but think, what crime did I commit? Love? I cannot help who I love….

I love the color black is because my roots run deep, and my core is strong.

You have to be very, very careful what you ask for because you just might get it, and once you get it, you regret it. Now, deal with it!

Life has a way of taking me down. I guess that’s how the stars were aligned for me. Regardless of what I do, it seems like when the stars align, they just fall from the sky, and I have to start over.

There isn’t anything in my life that is concrete. My life is never ever settled; my mind is never at ease.

If you do not remember anything else, I could be telling you wrong, but always put yourself and your needs first. Never put someone else before you—it might be selfish, but I learned when I put other people's needs before mine. I was the one who got burned. I lost my way, and I was the only one traveling an unknown road alone. I gave so much of myself and my all to be only left with nothing.

The difficult road I took alone—I kept walking, and most importantly, I kept turning the pages, and it landed me here.

Somehow I made it possible to see the reflection of footprints from just the right amount of light. I manage to see the reflection of the waves and the stars in the sky. It was delightful and humbling to the soul. It was like I was a person who was walking in someone else’s shadow—however, I pulled away and took a chance on life.
