Every once in a while, it's good to shake the tree of friendship, to let the rotten fruit fall.
#AfricanProverb #Friendship #LifeLessons
This proverb from Africa reminds us that it is important to be selective about our friends. Not everyone who claims to be our friend is truly our friend.

In this essay, I write about BEING GAY, BELIEFS, CONTINUUMS, SEXUALITY, and APPLES & ORANGES. Do they each relate to the other? In some ways I believe they do. Or maybe not! What do you think?

"Don't force it,
The flower doesn't bloom
before the right time
Not even if you beg it,
Not even if you try to open its petals,
Not even if you flood it with sunlight.
Your impatience
pushes you to seek spring
When you should need
to embrace your winter."
This quote by Ada Luz Marquez is a reminder that we should be patient with ourselves and with others.

In the long journey of life, you will meet many masks and few faces. 🎭
by Luigi Pirandello
People often wear masks to hide their true selves. They may do this to protect themselves from being hurt, or to fit in with a certain group. 🎭
It is important to be aware of this so that you can see beyond the masks and get to know the real people behind them. 🎭
Don't be fooled by appearances. Take the time to get to know someone before you judge them. 🎭

-You are stronger than you think.
-There is some good in this world, & it’s still worth fighting for.

It's ironic that last week I ended my article writing/publishing with on why we should suffer a little in our lives when a few days later I got a cold.
Still have it, but thankfully it hasn't drained all of my energy to stop me from writing.
