DEAR ROSALINE
here's a taste of what's on my mind. You, of course.
I want to apologize to you because I always knew that I could love you in the way you needed, but I'd been distracted, investing my time and energy in spaces where love couldn't be appreciated. I sought out security from people who could not protect me. I've shared moments that meant nothing to the other person, but I guess, in truth, you only know they're the wrong person when it ends with your heart in peace.
I think back to all the ways I've searched for you- navigating, constantly changing direction without a map, not even knowing what the destination would actually be. I've come to understand that healing those old wounds is the best way to welcome new love, and without that, one is destined to a cycle of dissapointment.
I can tell you that I'm done replyaing what happened; I'm done repeatedly settling for chaos when my deepest desire is peace. I'm done settling for places where you don't reside or with a heart that isn't yours. I know you're here with me, sharing this moment. I know that you understand everything I've expressed because you 've been there before. And now, I'm asking you to take my hand and let me walk beside you in love and peace. Let us beging to build our imerfect utopia on a foundation of trust, understanding and healing.
It's nearly summer but there's snow left in my heart. Melt me.

BRIDGERTON
Ladies, get your wine and liners ready. Bridgerton season 3 is out on Thursday. So, on Netflix, there is a series called Bridgerton. In that series, a lot of English is spoken, litres of tea are sipped, dances are danced and elegant furniture and decor are displayed. In that series also, there are many characters, black and white, young and old. Among those characters ladies and gentlemen, there is a man, a handsome chocolate fountain with pink lips, a chest enough for me and my afro hair to find rest, and since I have looked close enough, he has donkey meat below the waist. Oh yes!

Gratitude For Life
The last time I laughed so hard that my belly hurt was ___________ Rupi Kaur's Gratitude Writing Prompts When I was 24 and going to a women's support group we would laugh, I would go home with a sore face and sore sides. Why? I wasn't used to smiling or laughing. After a few months of doing that, I never have a sore face, sides, or belly from laughing as I laugh enough.
