I was blessed to attend a community event Sunday commemorating and honoring the life and legacy of Rev Dr Martin Luther King Jr. The inspiring delivery via the medium of theater by the NAACP youth did not white wash the constant violence, outright hatred and oppression that MLK...

The hardest thing ever ( least for me), is committing to the ongoing process of my growth, transformation and healing. Having a great deal of experience in living in denial, self numbing and self destruction, it seemed merely the act of waking into new life (which started as a huge...
