Books
The Prophet by Khalil Gibran.
The Essential Rumi
I read about 4 books a week. If your interested in what I'm reading now ask me...or sometimes I'll post it here.
Heroes
My 16 year old daughter is my hero. In her short 16 years on earth she has experienced over 7 deaths of people close to her, including her dad who died from cancer. She's been thru more in her life than you can imagine and yet, she still seems to find the good in people and still enjoys her life to it's fullest.
I'm an independent publicist and co-owner of Meridian Entertainment with my business partner of 10 years Hard Hittin Harry! I've worked with some great people in the entertainment business, made a lot of amazing memories and have learned a great deal in my life.
I'm also an artist/painter, creating multimedia pieces in acrylic, ink and paper. I also make dolls, quilts and handmade books and papers, write poetry, haikus and am in the process of finshing a book (more info to come on that). Check out my art site by clicking on the below pic.
Creativity is so underrated these days. No one wants to be different anymore....thats why a lot of so called "outsider art" inspires me. Wear that term like a f*ckn badge, because you are beautiful when you are truly being yourself.
I get asked a lot about my nationality, my mom is Cherokee and Puerto Rican, and my dad is Black/Zulu (yes, Africa) and Sicilian. I'm a freakin mutt, that's what, lol.
I like interesting people who don't have their head up their azz. You know the type, they think they know everything and don't want to hear anything contrary to what they believe. A second opinion is neccesary sometimes, particularly when you have something you are trying to sell to the masses. If you can't step back and let someone take a critical look at your shit, you're too damn sensitive, and need to get over yourself.
If you want to know me, that's pretty easy, drop me a line. I get a lot of mail, so if it takes me a minute to get back to you, try to be patient, because I will get back to you.
If you read this far.....thanks.
What was in that candles light
That opened and consumed me so quickly?
Come back my friend! The form of our love
is not a created form.
Nothing can help me but that beauty.
There was a dawn I remember
When my soul heard something
from your soul. I drank water
from your spring and felt
the current take me. The Essential Rumi
I will not die an unlived life
I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire
I choose to inhabit my days
to allow my living to open me
to make me less afraid, more accessible
to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing
a torch
a promise
I choose to risk my significance
to live so that which comes to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom
and that which comes to me as blossom
goes on as fruit.
