“

People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you’ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Although 2013 has brought a major lost in my life, I have entered it feeling better than I have ever felt. I can feel the results of my physical and spiritual workout plan. I feel fly with my new haircut. 30 here I COME!

With a heavy heart:

It has been a longtime since I have been on tumblr. Since I have experienced such amazing growth and strength. However last Friday night I lost someone special. Someone I called my child.

Raphael was a sweet and golden child. He was shot and killed last week. Tomorrow marks a week of the last time I saw him, hugged him and heard him say “I love you”. My heart is broken yet open. It is humbling to know I impacted his life.

In my mourning and healing I completed my post on my other blog. Enjoy. Please hug and say I love you to those that you care about.

Currently doing a Basquiat lesson with my students. I will show this work in progress photo. So rewarding to hear them understand him and use terms like African Diaspora! LOVE THEM!

TASTE THE RAIN

Artist Anna Gillespie - “All these works try to express a moment of connection to nature and this particular piece is about trying to draw the viewer into recalling what it feels like to stand out in the rain and engage their senses.”

Taste the Rain is part of an on going series of work using material that has fallen from trees: acorns, beechnut casings, leaves, bark, sycamore keys

Mom takes Gangnam Style to a new level

> This was like watching the most serious people in the world try to have fun.

> I was a little bummed out that mom didn’t start popping and locking when it was her turn at the end.

> Just called my mom and told her we have to do this now. her response:

“…no… why don’t I just make you some cookies”

> Gangnam Style is Korea’s ‘Macarena.’

> Dude’s not a bad dancer at all.

> She has some serious Gangmom Style.

> She was flawless. Glad she was 100% committed to it!

Hadda roll my moms in for something like this to some random soca song.
