This Is Me, Talking To Myself, About Myself

Reconnecting with My Father’s Side of the Family

I visited and reconnected with my Lola Nida and Mama Belle yesterday. I asked Mama’s permission before I did, of course because I wasn’t sure if my reconnecting with Papa’s side of the family would hurt the case that Mama is building against Papa.

I’m So Tired Of Feeling Stuck

Starting today, my goal is to try to be a different person than who I was yesterday. Someone better. Someone who doesn’t get stuck in a certain way of life just because “it’s who I am”.
