When I woke up this morning, I had no idea how I was going to celebrate Thanksgiving. I had 4 open invitations to dinner, but I was indecisive about where I actually wanted to go. I sat on my couch watching the parade wondering if that was all I'd end up doing today. Then I took a shower and my day suddenly came alive. While lathering up- gettin' so fresh and clean- something inside me said, "Wait...don't you love to cook? Isn't this one of your favorite ...
There are many people who have a serious problem with using a public restroom. For most it's a sanitary issue- public potties aren't the most pristine of environments. For others, as is the case with me, they don't exactly allow for much privacy, and can make the experience more stressful than it needs to be.

Accompanied by a headline only Alexyss K. Tylor could do real justice, the player featured assumes a position that was once somewhat familiar to ...
Usually on Tuesday nights you can find me at a Starbucks somewhere in Midtown attending Touch and Agree- my weekly prayer meeting. However, after an unsettling discussion at the meeting two weeks ago, I've decided to take a little break.
The topic that arose that week revolved around who, in the end, will gain entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven. One of the members of the group was explaining a book she was reading in which the author references the ...
So often, amidst all the talk of living our dreams and achieving our goals, we are led to believe that life is a competition. There are so many of us who seem to be racing towards the same finish line that it becomes hard not to think of besting the other racers on the track and leaving them choking on our dust. At the same time, as we look to surpass the dreamers and "haters" around us, we begin to compare their lives and successes to our own- leading ...
