My Journal… My Journey…
Lately I've been thinking about how fantasy has become so much more attractive to adults than reality. Last night I called my brother and my cousin after I saw the new Marvel superhero movie Black Panther. We discussed all the aspects of the movie like we were Siskel and Ebert 🙂 (you have to be...

There are few stories that have been recorded in history that can rival the story of the African-American. It is a story where various races of colored people were sold to the highest bidder and were legally treated as animals for 100's of years. As I write this, I feel saddened, because I know that...

In the past month there have been over 30 well-known and widely respected men who have been accused of sexual misconduct, rape, or some form of sexual harassment to women (click here).

How many times have you heard someone say, "Ugghhh! They just don't understand!" For me, I would say I've probably heard it an unfathomable about of times. Everyone has said it at one time or another. Whether it was said by a child under their breath to their parent or teacher, or a wife talking to her... Continue Reading →
For the last week or so, ever since the event in Charlottesville, I've been thinking about life and the most important relationships in my life (family, girlfriend, friends, co-workers, people I know at church). These protests about removing confederate statues are touching some very deep roots in the heart of America. Growing up in Louisiana,... Continue Reading →
