I've been playing this fiction for four years...I got no more rabbits to pull out of the hat. I wouldn't give up easily.Kwelihttp://kweligee.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36009958.post-24945125044283598762011-09-01T14:47:27.805+02:002011-09-01T14:47:27.805+02:00Hey brother:

Lots of issues out of my hand. I will read this again and again this week; each time I seem to get courage to write/say something on BMAG. It's like coming here to the states was a mistake. Anyway, we shall see.Kwelihttp://kweligee.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36009958.post-35544653994672510442011-08-01T11:48:08.794+02:002011-08-01T11:48:08.794+02:00Dubie my brother thank you kindly.

It is synchronous that this transition period for you had heightened right as Ramadan is here.<br /><br />A friend of mine once saw this quote written on the wall at a kindergarten: mistakes are for learning.<br /><br />I'm sure you know that already. I support you.Kwelihttp://kweligee.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36009958.post-91527628985340845132011-07-29T13:15:34.357+02:002011-07-29T13:15:34.357+02:00All I can say Big Brutha is WOW, I respect your ca...All I can say Big Brutha is WOW, I respect your candor! I don't know why Dubois comes to mind when I read your post. I know he struggled w/ trying to fit into a system back in his day before he realized he couldn't escape his true self and his connection to the Continent. Not liking you to the early years of Dubois but the journey of coming back to the middle as sista India.Arie suggested is apparent.<br /><br />Peace,<br /><br />Bro.
