A SLAVE…and Proud to Be

Socialize This Post:

I am a slave. And I am proud to be a slave. I will venture as far to say, that I am a slave willingly. Wait….whoa whoa whoa. Run that back. A willing slave? Can that even exist? As oxymoronic as the term ‘willing slave’ sounds, I am here to share with you why I [...]

 

An Instant of Selfishness.

Socialize This Post:

I never really considered myself to be a selfish person…but then again, before tonight, I guess I had never given it substantial thought. Tonight, I’ve been humbled yet again…and not at an easy cost. You know how sometimes you can want something so bad that you soon find yourself with tunnel vision (perhaps without realizing [...]

 

Unmistakably, Inevitably…

Perhaps we’ve even sent this request out to our own friends, enticing them to join in the twittering fun. Many people are very enthused/amused to follow their friends, family, and celebrities [...]

Socialize This Post:

Isn’t it funny how working with kids can lead to the most thought provoking conversations sometimes?

On: Wanting to be Loved

Socialize This Post:

“I wanna be loved… Not for who you think I am or who want me to be… Would you love me for me…” It seems truer words have never been spoken. As I grow more and more “up”, I realize…that the flings of the past, the innocent crushes, the busted relationships, the pain, [...]

Socialize This Post:

By Ali Brown According to the U.S. Government Small Business Administration’s home page, about 50 percent of small businesses fail within the first five years. I’d bet the number one reason is the entrepreneur did not take the time to learn what he or she should! Whether you’re a corporate refuge, a recent grad or [...]
