The Promise
As previously mentioned, I had an epiphany that I would be 55 years old next year, and just a few minutes ago, I had another one. Neither one of my brothers made it to old age. They were ages 34 and 63 years old when they died, and that’s so sad. If I was to…

The Change of Life or Menopause
I’m 52 years old and I’m currently going through that dreaded period in a woman’s life: menopause and it’s a motherfucker. It’s filled with a roller coaster of emotions, trials, and challenges. First, let’s talk about these stanking ass hot flashes. Hot flashes can be defined as periods in which your body feels like it’s…

How Organized Religion Has Fucked Up Black People For All Eternity
According to Facebook, I’m a Rising Creator and Writer which is so amusing to me because all I do is put down the random thoughts that be swirling around in my discombobulated brain. As a Rising Creator, when I’m on Facebook, I read the comment section of various posts that are popular, and I’ve come…
