Keep Your Head Up

'Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots ...

And uhh, I know they like to beat ya down a lot
When you come around the block brothas clown a lot
But please don't cry, dry your eyes, never let up
Forgive but don't forget, girl keep your head up
And when he tells you you ain't nuttin don't believe him
And if he can't learn to love you you should leave him
Cause sista you don't need him ...

And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women, do we hate our women?
I think it's time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women ...'

Thought of the Day

Every woman deserves a man that calls her baby, kisses her like he means it, holds her tight like he never wants to let go, doesn't make her jealous with other women, instead makes other women jealous of her, is not afraid to let his friends and family know how he really feels about her, and makes sure she knows how much he loves her.

Super Moon

I love the clear night sky with a full moon.  So naturally, I was outside on the evening of March 19, 2011 taking pictures of the super moon rise.

I also was out at the brightest point approx 2:30 am and again at moon set between 6 and 7 am March 20, 2011.

Breakfast at Bagg's

I was introduced to Bagg's Sq. Cafe from a friend of mine at work, and I have been in love (with the cafe) ever since. The building, I assume, once thriving as employment for factory workers, has been renovated into a first floor cafe, top floor lofts and businesses in between.

The experience I get from this little cafe is one that makes me feel as if I am on vacation. My friend Reena and I like to meet on Saturdays for breakfast. Yesterday was one of those days that we met. We usually bring our cameras and laptops, talk about photography and life experiences.

It is really a fun, relaxing time and I look forward to my next vacation at Bagg's !! :-)
