Powerful words

“Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can’t ride you unless your back is bent.” -Martin Luther King Jr.

Just when I think I've read everything about Martin Luther King Jr. I find something else that inspires me all over again. Such a powerful soul. I don't have much to say this time. I'll leave you guys with this video of one of my favorite songs by The Great Duke and Coltrane.

Until Next time.. let's Elevate?




Song by Duke Ellington & John Coltrane
"In a Sentimental Mood"

I like Valentine's Day. Some people say it's just a Capitalist Holiday where people go out and buy silly gifts and say the things they should be saying all year round. Yes, that may be true but what about reclaiming the holiday/or time as a chance to reconnect with yourself or your God?

Why can't we all just spend the day telling ourselves how much we love who we are and how far we've come? Buy ourselves some flowers or maybe even do something kind for a stranger. There's so many ways we can use this day and make it positive.

Just saying.... instead of having the blues about not having the perfect date or gift, remember that you are enough. You are not alone and you are loved. Embrace yourself today. (Okay stopping now before I break out into a verse of Michael Jackson's "Heal The World." I can feel it coming on)

and for those of you who will be entertaining ahem.. "guest" tonight, this video is for you


Floetry - "Fantasize"









Enjoy, Play safe, and please... let's Elevate.
