Wild about you
I spent hours just to see these beautiful Monkeys swing from branch to branch. One of the monkeys striked a pose. I took this picture while walking around Animal kingdom in Orlando Florida. They are very happy animals. The way they interact with each other is in a very playful manner. I watched them pick bugs off of one another. One minute they are having fun and playing tag with each other and the next minute they seem like they are yelling at each other. The Monkeys are a crowd pleaser, and the main event. They know how to stick together. They are very smart and have some human like qualities.

High Notes In The Shower
I swear I use to battle with myself on what I was suppose to like growing up. I somehow found women so attractive and it killed me to think I was weird or nasty. I remembered how I crushed so hard on a girl when I was in the 8th grade. I couldn't really shake the feeling of liking a girl. Maybe I was born that way. I would come home from school and hop straight in the shower. I would have my speaker on the opposite side of the curtain and I would sing to the top of my lungs. I never really knew if I sounded good or not; nobody ever complained. My song playlist would go on for ever and all my greatest hits would play. I would sing and think about my crush. I swear my music helped me understand my new found attraction to other girls like me. Then as I got older I heard Lady Gaga's "Born this Way".. I just knew she made that song for me.

The Wild Life
On November 20th 2019, It was the best trip of my life. Actually It was the only trip in my life as an adult at the time, with the people that I love the most. My friends, family and the love of my life made it all possible. I honestly don't know what I would do without them. They knew what would make me so happy.

Oh MOMMA
Oh momma, It was you who taught me how to be so great, it was you that helped me fix all my mistakes.I watched you come home every night with sore feet and an aching back. I watched you wake up every morning And still have breakfast made On the table. When dad passed, You stepped in and you took his place. That’s why I celebrate you on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. There was a time when I got a little bit older and a little more growner and I wanted to date, when I experienced my first heartbreak; you let me cry on your shoulders. You told me “there will be a time when you get your heart broken, and it’s going to be OK!Because mama will always be here to wipe your tears away.” I prayed and prayed, harder and harder that you would never die on me. I need you around. I need you to be here when I have a child of my own, I need you to be here as my backbone. I want to witness the day I hear my daughter call you grandma. I want my daughter to experience the importance that you are in my life. The Beautiful songs you would sing to me, the way you would brush my hair until I fell asleep. You protected me, Even when I was wrong, then you would punish me as soon as we got home. (LOL) Not a day goes by that I don’t think about you. I reminisce on all my childhood memories, like that one time in elementary when the teacher said I was incompetent because I told her that her shoes were on the wrong feet, and I didn’t know what that meant at the time. But when I came home and told you what she said,You went out to the school and I watched you set her butt straight. Oh how I miss your crazy self.
