Tat Meanings.

This reminds me that I'm Royalty and most importantly that I don't have to put up with foolishness. I put it on my wrist so that at the random times that my Queenship slips my mind, it'll be within eyesight to bring me back to knowledge of it. With a Royal mindset, I easily dismiss silly little drama and people who treat me less than what I'm worth...it's kind of cocky, but a good cocky...because I'm not arrogant, but a lot of things are beneath me.

J. Cole - Who Dat

Writing my life away...

So, I have four books in progress. I knew for sure that I had two because I've been deliberately piecing those together. But, I write so much...at least once a day, sometimes even more, so once I sat down and thought about it, I have enough random writings that correlate to create two additional books.

Often times, I even wake up in the middle of the night, grab my phone, type a line or a thought and go back to sleep. Then, I expound upon the thoughts when I have time.

I'm really excited to become an author. I wonder how many books I'll write in my lifetime. But instead of focusing on numbers, I'll just write my life away.

I texted my little sister a J. Cole verse and she said "I know, I been listening to him." So, I asked her why she didn't been "pass the Cole," LOL!! It's so funny that I'm just starting to realize how beautiful music is. Last week, I was immersed in Brandy, Aaliyah, and TLC songs...this week I'm doing my Jay-Z and Cole thing. It's never planned, but each week I find a new (but, in most cases, old) artist that I love.

Cole has to be the realest I've heard in a minute. And you know I'm picky with lyrics.

Larry Bird

Another unsung hero...in my eyes, at least.

I heard it from Magic Johnson..."craziness to excel."

I randomly turned on my television today, which isn't something I normally do...and rather than flicking to the normal BET or Disney, I actually browsed the selections to see what was available.

I don't know what made me choose this documentary, but I just felt like I should watch it.

And now, I'm in love with Larry Bird. Well, his drive at least.

It's only been about fifteen minutes since I tuned into the show...huge emphasis on "the," seeing as I have absolutely no idea what I'm watching (lol).

I've watched Bird rebound HIS OWN shots, ultimately exceling in a league where he was outnumbered.

It was rare during those times that blacks had anything of their own. And with segregation still in its prime, you'd assume that a "white boy" would rather inflict the pain than receive it...but no, not Bird. He made a name for himself, and it wasn't simply because he was white. It was because he was good at what he did.

His tenacity, his vigor, his drive...and to think, I never knew.
