my quirky behaviors...


I've learned that WE can go thru life NOT hating ourselves but NOT really loving ourselves either... I know - for myself - I had to learn to embrace each of my quirky behavior(s)...

                                                                                                         www.Havingteawithmysisters.com

I embrace the fact that I
'm sometimes wrong - And I sometimes make mistakes - I embrace my sometimes slurred speech And my occasional stutter... I realize I can sometimes be introverted shy And slightly withdrawn... I embrace the fact that my written communication is often times better than my verbal... I embrace my long skinny legs And tiny physic... my big teeth And thin lips *And I could go on*

I've learned to move thru LIFE loving myself which frees me up And allows me to be open And freely love others... I've further learned (And tho it's unfortunate) WHEN we Are not happy - And IF we dislike ourselves – it's likely – we will almost effortlessly but most certainly dislike others.

I don't know *shoulder shrug* maybe it's scripture, genetics, or possibly my zodiac sign ??? - ummm, tho I AM NO WHERE NEAR PERFECT !!! .. .. .. .. .. .. .. I reiterate "NO where near" lbs I personally believe it's not hard nor should it be all that complicated to love one another

BE truth BE genuine BE beauty BE love








Has It Always Been
Has it always been the sultry sound of jazz softly playing?
Shhhh… listen. 
pitter-pat… tap  tap   tap
- The rain is falling, just, outside my windowpane. 
- The look of a well-groomed tastefully dressed man
with strong yet gentle hands
- The first lick of my favorite ice cream cone "mmmmmm"
- The fresh scent of my—clean—bare skin
- The ability to talk it all over with a close male friend
- Chowin’ down on some good ole collard-greens and hot water cornbread fried crispy but not too thin
- My own reflection in the mirror
… My favorite dress fitting me just right
- The anticipation of being with the man I adore
On, in, and all through the night
- Some 'Down Home Country Blues' You see I’ve always liked the blues
- Walking on a cool tile floor [toes painted pretty] I have on no shoes.
Just a few things that have always turned me…
