Helping U is Healing Me

Thanks to poverty, life took away my opportunities to be weak. Being a female, life demands that I be strong. Being born black, my strength must triple. So, a fight for life began for me at birth. Poverty, Pain, Hunger, and your life became my teachers. The lives and living of everyone I know and read about are my manual.

Yes, many life manuals are at my disposal, and they have provided me with numerous insights and wisdom as I learn from your mistakes.

Poverty and being a black female in a cruel world demand that I create my own opportunities. I could use my brain or my body. In a country where the female body is an asset, and for some, it’s the only asset they have. It’s #Brainpower4me, because life manuals showed me that the brain will outlast the body.

I create a life from my creative, innovative imagination because, after reading many life manuals, I realized that for many humans, their lives don’t go as they want them to; they go as they should.

My life didn’t go how I wanted it to. But it went how it should.

My power of words, mixed with wisdom, common sense, and life lessons, along with many works of Art that I have created to heal, will speak for me. They will tell you a lot about me.

I live to write, not write to live.

Below are some of my life stories that provide a deeper insight into my life and who I really am.
