Random stuff...
First, I wanted to send thanks to everyone who e-mailed or commented on my Breakdown post. Everyone words are inspirational. Throughout the week, I must have read then over twenty times. It truly put a smile on my face and definitely was the highlight of my week.
I don't know why I have Fantasias' I Believe in my head. I feel JOOD! I've been growing my hair for the past two months and yesterday I cut if off. I bought a notebook to right down my daily task so I won't forget anything. (it is helping with my anxiety. now i don't have to remember everything) I finally saw my ex for the first time since the break-up, it was a pleasant experience. You Go Boy(Ex)! I told someone who i'm starting to deeply care about, my dark insecurities and I received positive feedback (see Bobby's comment). My business (yeah, i got a small business on da side) is about to engage in a new endeavor. And soo much other stuff is going in. One more thing, I woke up this morning with a smile on my face because I'm FLY! NOW, ISN'T GOD GOOD!

I went to the To Be Young, Left And Black: Priorities and Possibilities forum. I absolutely love being around progressive people of all colors. There is a certain level of passion that fills up the room, which makes it worthwhile to go to event like this. The panelists were very honest with their thought-provoking ideas. Two of the panelist expressed the love for James Baldwin. I don't know too much about his political thoughts, but I must seek out some Baldwin knowledge.
Please go out and buy Letters From Young Activist! I read tons of letters on my commute back home. Like the McDonald's commercial, I'm loving it. (Dang, I should have submitted a letter.)
Big shout out to all that was involved!

I'm glad to hear that things went well at the forum. Yes, James Baldwin was a remarkable man. There is a book by James Campbell called Talking at the Gates: A Life of James Baldwin that is very good. Baldwin's commentary on civil and human rights were brilliant. He was truly a great man. I'll have to check out that Bayard Rustin book as well. Rustin and Baldwin were both excellent examples of activisim.
congrats to you for growth and vulnerability.
it is always good to have people around you to support you and tell you how it is ...
hey i feel ya on the "cleansing"
do what ya must!
have a good weekend man!
You aren't the only black person who wants to see either of those movies. I love Mrs. Witherspoon, and the fourth Harry Potter book was the absolute best in my opinion.
God Bless
