Have we not learned anything at all?!

I thought we moved beyond the one-drop rule. I thought we moved beyond the paper bag test. I thought we moved beyond having combs at the doors of a church. #teamlightskin #teamdarkskin Don’t you realize that this was a system used to divide, conquer and destroy an entire people? It’s bad enough when other people judge us by the tints and shades of our skin But, it even worse we do it to ourselves.

I've Been Thinking

Lately. I have been doing a lot of thinking. Maybe it's time for me to move out of Conyers, Georgia and live on my own. Even though I have been living for five months, I feel limited and stifled. I think that Atlanta, Georgia might have more opportunity for me. There are some places in the community that can help me out with obtaining employment, housing, financial assistance, food stamps, and disability. The thing is I have a form of autism.

The New Year Agenda

It's now the first day of the new year and there is a lot that need to be done. I have medical physical coming up so I need to prepare for that. That means I would have to not eat any solid food and drink a lot of water the night before. So far with my freelance writing, I have a potential client I met at odesk.com and still setting up my elance.com profile. The job search for me, however, has being slow coming evening I put in 5-6 job applications. But like what I always say, "Some progress is better than no progress." I need to go to a nearby career center that could help me out with the job search.
