Oooh the things I post on Fb

Have you come across a "single" man who you figure he and I would vibe well together? (No married or separated please)

Yes Im being proactive.
I can wait on the Most High for a lot of things but one has to work while waiting.
Yes I can wait on the Lord but I dont have a good shelf life. LOL
Im in the HERE & NOW... Im working with TODAY!!!

Yes.. Im bold like that.
One has to be able to SPEAK OVER THEIR LIVES!!!

I would like a man.. who has the TIME TO INVEST in friendship at least.
It is imperative that he likes to SPEAK as a form of communication and not solely rely on texting.
One who doesnt have a lot of drama and knows who the hell he is and what he wants out of life.

No he doesnt have to want to drink my bathwater but that in someway would eventually consider me to be "the cat's meow"

I dont play games but if he has the patience and wherewithal to teach me chess then by golly we may have a winner.

Oooooh yeah ... he has to love exploration and discovery!!!

Here's to SPEAKING INTO THE ATMOSPHERE!!!

How can I be so bold?
Simple. . Ive always been somewhat aggressive in nature. If you've ever seen me in action taking pics then you know what I speak of... in the waiting for "the moment".. one has to align themselves accordingly.
Let the magic begin.

Oh yeah.. keep the thoughts above the waistline this aint about penile insertions!!

My inbox is OPEN!!!

Quiet can be deafening

The simplest things can appear to be so difficult for some. Yet complexities for others are quite simple.

Human interaction or lack there of, takes a toll on the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual modes of one's life. 

The weight of solitary life can be arduous.

No matter how much planning and involvement with others, when the moments are over one returns to the quiet.

Quiet can be deafening.
If one is running from chaos I suppose it is refreshing.
Yet if for the most part, for who one is mostly in solitude the aloneness can be maddening.

Fortunately there are cycles to life. Change is always on the horizon.

I pray it comes soon.

You are the Dreamer

Ever look at the possibility of stealing a dream from yourself
I mean
you were right there
You felt the pressure of the flow of the world
You know that somehow
some way
there was a way
and you mastered it
all in your head
and then
there was the day
that it all came to pass
right in front of your eyes
WOW
you're living
breathing
and feeling your dream
it is what you
thought it might be
and then
you turn
and walk away from it all
WHY?
It's ok
let someone else have it
because
You are the Dreamer
You have more :-D

After spending 2 evenings at a Dance Studio Open House - @DancefxSC

Ive got to do some maintenance... I bug out whenever the main HD on my pc goes below 100 gig.... I shoot sooooooo much and love every minute of it.. but I have to stay on top of housekeeping...

I need some Kale in my life..... it's nearly time to chop things up... got to eat BEFORE the review of pics and videos.. otherwise I will not leave the seat....

The Human body is a beautiful thing...
Experiencing dance first hand.. aint nothing but a blessing!!!
SHAKE A TAIL FEATHER THIS YEAR FOLKS.. CHALLENGE YOURSELF!!!

I think I shot the classes to let you see that YOU can do this....
Hell Ive got to go low when they go low... rise higher than they do...
Im working out....

I have to SEE the dance.. KNOW the choreography, FEEL the moments and music.... Im getting better.. which is the exact reason Im challenging myself with shooting these other classes....

Dance is freedom.. even in the rigid technique of Ballet there is freedom...
Burlesque.. Hip Hop, Modern... Oh I loved the Modern Jazz class...

Truth be told ... I had more dance and theatrical prep classes in college than I did other classes.

Im Jamaican... there are certain careers that we were told just wasnt going to cut it...
I love the stage, backstage, center stage, sound booth, lighting, wardrobe, stage managing, sets.... Ive been doing all this since ... well since Ive been.
Every day is a performance.. Im called to experience something new every day and I adapt. There is no one skill that I utilize on a constant, well maybe the camera and the computers... but you get my drift....

See its moments like this that you can tell I had a GREAT TIME this evening because my fingers are flying across the keyboard in happiness... that reminds ****reaching for 1000mg acetamenophen**** LOL

Healing: THANK YOU Bull in the China Shop

If it were not for you
I wouldnt realize
All I kept inside
Are we really nothing but a collection
Of scars
Painfully exacted
In places
No one can see
Healers present
Themselves
And endure the pain
As they ride through this journey
With us
Thank You
My Bull in the China Shop

Self Love

OWN IT!!!!
Own those moments when you near lost your mind!!!
Own the moment when you dont let others slide
Own it!!!!
One has to speak up on the little shit
before they blow up to be big SHITS!!
When you look at what you will
or will n9ot accept
in your life on a daily basis
as you mature
it becomes clearer
"Thats Dog Aint Gone Hunt" moments
they appear
NIP SHIT IN THE BUD
If you want to be dealt with in a certain
manner
LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD
Actions are indeed
little things
we may let slide
but for how long?
for the sake of what?
personal freedom and
integrity
are extremely important
to the spiritual development
of a Soul
one has to truly
embrace who they are
and know who they intend on being
some use the word
worth
I
simply
express it as
Self preservation
Self 

to the Bull who ran through my China Shop!!!!!

This one here stays on my mind

The Little Things
It is the hardest thing
to express
explain to
someone
the value
of
The Little Things

When the air whispered your name
and I called
it was a little thing
that picture of
nothing
nowhere
that suddenly
appear
and turned
your frown upside down
little thing

that moment when you
simply thought
and a word
of PRAISE
appeared

did you not know these
were the little things

when you said
you would be there
but never called
the little things

courtesy is a little thing
if you didnt receive it
you would think it was a big thing

for all the "I will call"
where the silence continued
little things

for all the calls about your info
but never a how are you
the little things

for all the talk of
I want to be down here
yet you moved to the ends of the earth

people are there
for the little things
the laughter
and even sometimes the pain

the little things bring strength
they let you know you have character
the little things sustain you
and make you stronger

the little things are believing
in folks when they dont
even know where
they are going
the little things

the little things show
the the overall package
may indeed not be for me

the little things brought
a fleeting moment
of happiness
yet has
taught a great truth
not everyone
believes in the value of
the little things




READ PEOPLE, READ!!!!!!!

Books are to be opened
the cover, packaging
it doesnt matter
they change
one is to immerse
themselves in the
CONTENT
it appears that things remain superficial
and the Cliff or Spark notes
are the rage
it will take time
experience
knowledge
living
to realize
just what you missed
by taking the shortcut
there are those
who will travel the distance
in tandem
with you
so that neither
are solo
the "I"
becomes
"WE"
a team
in stride
together
OPEN THE DAMN BOOK
turn the pages of life
just because you have the book
on a shelf
doesnt mean you are enjoying it
or him or her
whichever it is to you
spend time with it
play with it
take it to the park
by the water
for a long ride on a bus
don't let it accumulate dust
caress it with your fingers
glide smoothly up and down the spine
undress the letters with your eyes
READ PEOPLE, READ!!!!!!!

telepathy is not the current form expected

When I went through
what I went through
and did what I did
they said it would be 5 years
damn not 14
Maaaan
that's one heck of a load to bear
one's life can't be just machines
solving other people's issues
without some one on one encounters
aint no one that self absorbed
that the only they love they share
is Universal
in the grand scheme of things
the individual is overshadowed
needs to met
or cared for
all the while
the world at large
surrounding them
their problems are clear
when the calls are received
if only her shit
was that simple
WOW
Somehow
something has to give
all this to and fro
yet these roots are well grounded
soil packed around them
tentacles reaching everywhere
but the heart in the midst of the matter
is aching
they had someone touch it
but you know
how hard she is
she just dont know how to dance this dance
or they just dont know how to communicate
telepathy is not the current form expected

to see her dance in the wind

She dances in the wind
Bullshit
do you know the energy it takes to stay grounded
and yet sway
to the visible eye
it is dancing
they have no idea the spiritual roots
that keep one
sane
balanced
prepared to deal with the ways
not only of the wind
but people
they perform breath to air
with little decree for honesty
follow through
or expediency

Did you see the branches sway
its roots have a job too
to keep the tree THERE
it holds the key of the to and fro
It's so grounded it can never go anywhere
it's limbs and leaves
they see the world
and reach towards the sky

in order to MAKE HER MOVE
it must to the center core be
honest
loyal
capable to receive
give
share
that last winter breath
for hibernation is here

Oh you entered the cave
and still walked out tall
beating one's chest and
brandishing bravado
the twinkle in your eye
the tone of your laughter
what did you think about later?

when it hit your heart
that this was forever after
reality kicks in
this is not a dream
it's simply something you asked for

the dance
to see her dance in the wind
you wondered how she stayed so grounded
as the hot air flew around her
the fumes your lungs expelled
yet she was still grounded
it was when the swirl of love
that hit the air
it was that
that made her rise
it was that
which made her fly
yet grounded is she
for when it comes to heart
matters
careful
she is

Smiling EVERY DAY... from the inside out

A major lesson learned is that one has to breathe...
Last year this time I was exhausted... 
there is a different type of tired this year
an exalted sense of accomplishment.
Shooting an Annual event is a challenge...
you only have that one time
you want to get as much as possible
process as much as possible
document as much as possible
yet you're one person
cataloguing

for what purpose
other than for the practices and norms
of the current generations to be accessible to those to come
those who wont have corner griots
those who wont have interaction with one who's
knowledge of their Ancestors is pure
time erodes memories
I play a little part in making sure they are still intact

When one knows better hopefully one does better
Answers are given when the correct question is presented
When I look at HOW I do what I do a year later
Im grateful
to not being afraid to ask questions
they have saved me time, energy and brain cells

It's a new time
this vibe aint like regular
and the waves of it are going to move through the world
through suffering there is
enlightenment
and

HAPPY 2014 ....
LET'S DO THIS IS A BLESSED WAY!!!!
Smiling EVERY DAY... from the inside out
