Identical twins fascinate me. Identical at birth. From head to toe. As toddlers they did everything together, they even liked the same color- purple and disliked the same food- squash.

And then, they grow up and just like that, they’re on diverging paths. Did Mother Nature play a trick on us, or is it an experiment? From a seed in a Petri dish…

How can two humans, who are loved by the same parents, who are brought up in the same household, who are raised in the same environment, turn out so differently?

Identical Twins absolutely fascinate me😎

Is it just me, or are the days growing shorter? Are the leaves beginning to change colors and are they loosening their grip, all in preparation for their final Autumn Fall?

To be clear, hot pumpkin & spice coffee/latte is nice, but Halloween is for kids. So they’re not a proper compensation for giving up beach days & sunlight.

On a side note, I remember a man named Mr. Brown who hated kids. He moved into our neighborhood and every day he’d chase us from a front stoop, it didn’t matter that it wasn’t his front steps. He’d yell at us to go play somewhere else, when weren’t even playing. And on Halloween, when we were dressed up in our costumes and just walking across the street from his house, he’d come storming out the front door yelling at house. Telling us that if we had any sense at all, we’d better not stop at his house begging for candy. Mr. Brown was the storm.

BOO! Just sayin’

All too easily, a moment slips by. And before we know it, we’ve missed the opportunity to do something, or missed the chance to communicate what we meant to say.

If someone is amazing in your life, tell them. Now. Because we never know when the purple haze will swallow up the moment. And as of today’s date, scientists haven’t figured out a way to bring time back. No regrets💯🙏

These Queens! Inside every window, there’s a story to be told. Something going on. Something happening. And the truth is, we don’t know what that narrative is or what kind of drama someone is going through, be kind.

Be Kind.

Growing up, people didn’t like to smile in photographs. They just stared into the camera.

Today, as I flip through the photo album of my memory, I’m happy that I can remember some spontaneous times, when people weren’t conscientious about the camera and weren’t so deadpan serious. Times when they let their guard down and did smile. Because that’s how I like to remember them.

Riding the subway. Going fast and still arriving late.

Growing up, we went everywhere together. You wouldn’t know that my family didn’t own a car or that my mother couldn’t drive. Rocking and rattling along and yelling to be heard over the sound of metal wheels flying along steel tracks, defying gravity!

*I enjoyed painting this one. Bonus! I got to paint six mini abstract paintings and you didn’t even notice them, to not like them. Ha!

Sometimes women leave. It isn’t always planned. Some pass away. Others make career moves. Some are post-partum & challenged. And some, some women just hang up their red dress and leave. That’s when a dad becomes more than a man.

He’s strong, he’s resilient and he’s present.

So he cooks like mommy use to do. He goes to work and he cleans the house too. And when he braids his daughter’s hair, they both hope she’ll return🙏

All families don’t look alike. Some are made up of two Moms, some are traditional with a mom & a dad, while others are two dads. If we could paint a picture of love with brush strokes & let it be called art, we would value it not by what we see, but how it makes us feel inside, when we look at it. Love is love 💕
