So onto today’s matter, please eh - have you ever heard that you can learn a lot about someone's type from his or her celebrity crush? Okay so, one of my people was gisting me about some guy she met.

Wedding Tears
Happy Tuesday Friends! I trust September has been great to you and yours ? Okay so, I was gisting someone about a wedding I went to the weekend before. “It was small and intimate and fun! No protocol, just merriment… At most, there were 80 people there! It was just beautiful!” My friend, listened as I went on and on about the couple and their story and everything (I honestly did not shut up).

Quick Question – What are you waiting for?
I use to make the mistake of telling people what I want. Actually - now that I think about it - my mistake started before that. I think it began with the mentality that there were some things other people HAD to buy/do for me in order for that thing to be of any real significance/value to me.
