That's What I'm talking about!!!!
Just got in and checked my email, and got one from a cousin of mine whom I truly admire...
she's a true globe trotter... and no military excursion, just self motivation... and provocation.
India, Korea, Thailand, China, Japan, Australia, Africa
There are so many stories, she holds...
From being in a true Shilon temple, to sleeping in the saharra dessert... to knowing where the best "sky" she's ever seen,,,,.
Come one... man, how friggin' awesome is that, to know where the f__k the best SKY is, on the damn planet??????
Damn we on this side of the planet live in such hindsight... to even think about where to find the "best sky".... or heck to even think about the sky period....nope, on this end were consumed with the:
.....best place to get our hair, nails, toes done
.....best place to meet honies
.....best place to shop, increase stock, or cop (something) online
.....best place to grabbing hot trendy goods... sneakers... (cause ya'll know we gotta keep a fresh pair of sneaks... )
.....best place to get a good herb, X, drink, sex... (pick ur poison)
But damn to be places, where you might as well be a raisin in a glass of milk... but swim around in it anywayz....
Yo, I'm not jealous, I'm inspired...
So I'm not broke.... I'm preparing....
Here's her email:

When I asked my cousin, who's no differently like any of us in here.. with bills, loans, notes etc... but passport stamped to the max....I had to ask...
Me: "Hey L_ how do you do it????"
She: "You just do.
Me: "Yeah, but how did you do it??"
She: Two credit cards, and a prayer."
Me: "I hear that"
When I think about all the whack, shit I did, with my credit cards, I could kick myself... humble beginnings, here I come!
Naw Gurl, I'm sooo wired.. I had to share... but I just came in from an inspirational meeting... its so true, whateva you put out, will come back... when U least expect it... and I was starting to take on folks negative ass baggage, on some doubtful shit. So glad I decided to go to this meeting tonight, that helped me give folks back their bags.... ya'll know how crabs in a barrel are???!??? Anyone hear me?
**In deep thought** Nice. Appreciate what you got and who you are.
Dee, aint that the truth, ruth. Also makes you look at your darn credit card to see, what the heck you been spending it on????lol
