Will I survive all the fights in the darkness?
They tell me home is where the heart is, dear departed

I'm 19 and a sophomore at the University of Michigan. I am a believer (in Christ). I am an African. I am a dancer. I am a humanitarian. A leaf-eater. An achiever. A laughing fool. Silly. Serious. And, I am growing. I am many many more things that you will never know unless you ask. Tupac, MLK Jr., Ghandi, Oprah, Rosa Parks, Steven Biko, Maya Angelou, and Angelina Jolie are among the people I revere.
I think the world needs more intellectually minded and selfless people, and in my effort to become one I strive for all things that bring truth, joy, love, strength, peace, harmony, justice, spiritual growth and OVERstanding.
"And at the center of this dreadful storm, this vast confusion, stand the black people of this nation, who must now share the fate of a nation that has never accepted them, to which they were brought in chains...one has no choice but to do all in one's power to change that fate, and at no matter what risk...the value placed on color of the skin is always and everywhere a delusion...If we-and now I mean the relatively conscious whites and relatively conscious blacks, who must, insist on, create, the consciousness of the others-do not falter in our duty now, we may be able to end the racial nightmare, and achieve our country, and change the history of the world" - James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time
"You're in a hurry. God is not. Trust god." - Marie T. Freeman
"Anything is possible if a person believes." - Mark 9:23
I am currently under construction, but doing the best I can to achieve ultimate success and discover what it means to live life fully and fruitfully....
Peace and God bless.
