Posted by Dawana on Feb 21, 2010 in Posts

That’s what my new phone says when I turn it on.

Well [...]

The One Where I Tell You

Posted by Dawana on Feb 7, 2010 in Posts

“The only devils in the world are those running in our own hearts.”
- Mahatma Ghandi

So what? You may be thinking. But for me, that’s huge.

Thank You, Dr. King

**The following is a guest post written by Cessy from Confessions of a Jibber Jabber.**
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality…. I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional [...]

Posted by Dawana on Dec 10, 2009 in Posts

Posted by Dawana on Nov 18, 2009 in Posts

Well, today was definitely easier than yesterday. As far as getting started is concerned anyway. I put baby girl down for her nap, ran out of the room before she had time to realize what was happening, strapped on my sneakers and went right to work.
I was hoping that Trainer Danny wouldn’t have jokes on [...]
