Let's Go Crazy!

My limited time here on this marvelous planet has afforded me the opportunity to honor favorites like James Earl Jones and Tyrese.

BUT I have never honored Prince!

In light of our loss of Michael Jackson, it occurred to me that no one should be taken for granted.

I have never honored Prince because his influence has been SO monumental for me. I've been unable to categorize my love because it has been SO great! It reaches further for me than MJ because I fell under his spell as an adolescent.

MJ LOVE occurred when I was 5, so by the time Prince came along, crooning "I Wanna Be Your Lover", it was a welcome like none other!

Nancy Pelosi has chosen to ignore MJ's genious with unfounded theories of pedophilia and misconduct; never commenting on those parents and their greed. Or on the hundreds if not thousands on felony probation that I see, who are unlawful and have sexual deviance, yet are allowed to walk our streets freely.

At any rate, I have chosen to contribute my thoughts about the remarkable and talented people and the love they have given us - leaving all of the other very human parts of folks to their private business.

NOT TRYING TO PUT ANYONE ELSE IN THE GRAVE. Merely honoring those who are due in the way that they should ~ without societal ringing the hypocritical bell.

Prince is important, especially to the black community, because he took sexuality and creativity to a higher level...just beyond where James Brown and Marvin Gaye left it, all the way to transnational hysteria.

Hearing my mother scream "Take that NAKED man down right this minute!!" resonates a certain satisfaction to a teen, now doesn't it??

PRINCE, known to lock himself in his studio, play all of the instruments and sing all of the vocals; "Sexy Dancer", "Purple Rain", we're not getting any younger BUT I will ALWAYS be "...In Your Hair"!

WOW ~ THANKS Ann!

Okay, I just HAVE to toot my own horn ~ and of course ANN's because I love her that much!

One good write-up deserves another, or in this case a BLOG retweet?

Ann Evanston has great advice, as you guys all know,

AND

she had really nice things to say about me and about what I LOVE to do today.

Sharing my love of the world and meeting all of you is such a passion filled joy.

Wake Up Everybody!

Our friend Tom { To Hell - and Back } shared this update on Neda.

Neda is also a symbol for us in America on the senselessness of violence.

Bullets never have names on them and more often than not, kill the unintended.

When will we wake up? Is your viewpoint worth my life?

Find Your Peace ~

Freedom & Peace in Iran

The images coming from Iran are heartbreaking ~ No justice, No peace - We ARE watching and will not rest until there is freedom.

There is a lot whirling about in my head regarding this after reading many people's words on various social networking sites.

I do not agree with the senseless murders of the protesters, nor do I agree with their calls of "Death" to the dictator.

Murder for the sake of justice is pointless.

The Dictators can be exiled.

Watching that young woman die on the street as if she was not even an animal calls for justice in the name of peace.

We must all help each other to find peace.

The United States can not be expected to step in but we as citizens of the world do have a collective voice.

Government intrusion is what went wrong in Iraq. We must encourage our fellow brothers and sisters to find a way to live peacefully.

There is no longer room for dictators and regimes. Power belongs to the people.

One Love.

We are with you please be safe.
