Been gone a while...

I've been gone a long time. I've written, but it hasn't been on a computer,
I've just written in my diary, just a bunch of riff raff. What defines a 'writer'?
Is one considered a writer only when he/she has written numerous books? Or is a writer simply someone who is just a writer, say someone who just writes down ideas or thoughts, poems or stories? I'd like to consider myself a writer. I write feelings and thoughts almost all the time, it's just that no one really knows about them. Well I'm here right now at work and haven't written on this page for such a long time.

YES WE CAN!!!

Well yes yes yes yes yes, we have our first African American president
and I have to say that I was in tears as I saw Barack Obama being sworn in!!
Almost 2 million people attended this event yesterday and you can best believe
that we will be talking about for the next 2 terms of his office!
My only wish is that Obama gets as much sleep as possible. I heard that he and
Michelle attended 10 innaugural ball last night. But didn't they look fantastic!!
Michelle looked stunning and Obama looked so cute and confident. Beyonce could of done a better job singing at last but hey, she wanted to do her part. My heart feels glad today and I'm so proud to be an African American! OBAMA YA'LL!!!

We're born to unlearn...

I had this conversation with my Father a couple of days ago. I've had this saying in my mind for a while now as well. I've discovered that we are all born to unlearn what we've learned. We're born pure. We learn, we get sad, we get mad, we get dissapointed, we get jealous, we grow to be envious. All these qualities are not Godlike qualities of the human existence. However, we've been taught all these traits not by fault, but just out of human nature of being learned and passed down generation to generation. The truth is ignorance is bliss. But I guess we have to learn in order to go through this thing called life. But at times the things that hurt become easier to bear once you understand that this is just a stage of life. We have many stages to perform on I believe. We should just relax and go through life and whatever we've learned that we don't like we can just unlearn it. The truth is it's easier said than done. That's why we're here to learn and unlearn.
