LOVE your neighbor as I have loved you (the greatest commandment of all time.) BEAUTY comes from within. Anything that does not GROW is dead. we all reach that proverbial fork in the road, the road that we choose is our DESTINY.

When I grow up...

Do you remember back in the day when we were younger our favorite saying was, "When I grow up I..." I found myself saying that the other day and I had to stop and think. That time is here. Not that I am claiming to be so grown up, but I am 22 yrs old and live 8hrs away from my family. I work I go to school I am responsible for everything I do...so techincally when I grow up is here starring me in the face.
Then I look around me and I see facts to support that idea. I have two friends that have their own houses. I have mad friends getting married. I have a few friends that have been married and have kids. I have a nine to five. I go grocery shopping. I schedule my own doctors appointments. I have mad bills. I am in a way grown and it is strange to me because I have putting it off for so long, but it still has happened. Someday is finally here and its time to realize I am grown.
No, that doesn't mean I have to change drastically. I can hang with my friends at the mall or have a ladies nite out. I can go out and have fun. But it also means I have to look at things more maturely. Like finances and making sure I button up my jacket when its cold outside. Its new and strange to me. But all in all thats LIFE.

P.S.
Check out Little Brother's new album The Minstrel Show. Oh yeah and add to my wack list, BET (it was wack before, but they solidified their own wackness) http://www.sohh.com/thewire/read.php?contentID=7519
