Twilight Zone

As I sit and type this post with a flawless complexion, compliments of  La vie en Rouge and H.E.R “Hard Place” plays in the background, I still feel as though I’ve entered a never ending Twilight Zone. In today’s episode, I decided to go for a walk with Soon hee-my super cute 5.8 lb Yorkshire terrier. Soon hee, if you must know, is quite observant-which is attributed to her separation anxiety.  Lately, it has come to her attention, that anytime a mask is on my face, it means that she or I, will be walking out the door. In a world, that in every corner, a mask has become the norm, we went on a walk. During our walk, it was observed that about half of those leisurely about, were wearing masks and apparently the other half are convinced that they are immune to COVID or that its does not exist at all.

Take two

As I have searched for a year now, to pinpoint the direction I envision for this blog, I have noticed that on a personal level, I have not shied away from political or racial debates. Once rather quiet and only speaking of these issues with confidantes, I  can no longer can remain silent. After the previous year election, I’d quietly insisted this blog would be a space, free from political commentary. At present time, I am not so sure of that. I vow to write those nagging thoughts that usually I debate over and over in my mind. Whether they are racially charged, political, or lighthearted, this space is an extension of that inner voice, no longer silent, I am thinking out loud and fearlessly sharing those thoughts with you.
