My Greatest...

My greatest …

Pain
· Witnessing the murder of my cousin in 1991
· Losing both grandmothers, friend Ann in 2002.
· Having pneumonia.
· Losing my Grandfather in 1990

Joy
· Hearing the laughter of my lil’ brother.
· Seeing the grassy side of the grave for yet another day
· Spreading my innately ignorant thoughts to you minions.
· Knowing that even when I fail…I succeeded simply because I had strength enough to try.

Fear
· Snakes ( I still don’t understand how all that squirming and wiggling around could possibly propel these creatures into any forward movement)
· Becoming a mother. (That's a while away...Not even close to happening but I’m scared as hell right about now…)
· Dying a violent death.
· When my friendLamont and I wrecked ,lets be honest totaled that $93,000 Acura in …Good thang for that insurance…or they’d have been mad at us…


Disappointment
· · Not going to the Sr. Prom because my cousin couldn’t afford to go. I chilled w/him the whole night, a group of us rented a car and toured the vast state of VA that weekend- we went to VA BEACH as well as Kings Dominion.
· Leaving school the way I did…just abruptly and in the 2nd semester of my senior year.
· My father calling me on my 8th birthday and being out of town :(
