Renewed
As I sit here stewing in self pity I have come to some very serious revelations about myself. Many times we tend to neglect ourselves. We neglect what we love and even who we love. We stop taking the time to take care of ourselves. We participate in activities that are not in our best interests. We allow toxic peoples into our lives and hearts and we allow them to linger there way to long. Many things have transpired in my life the last few years. Somewhere along the way I forgot who I was. I lost me. Today that stops. I know who I am. I know my worth. I know what beauty lies within me. And no matter what anyone says or does, that can not be taken away unless I allow them to. So with that said, I promise myself the following things:
I will live more!
I will read more (never ending knowledge)
I will travel more
I will take care of my loved ones and those who love me
I will take care of my dog. I've been neglecting him too.
I will find my spiritual center
I will kick my shoes off and walk barefoot in the grass
I will blast my music in the house and sing at the top of my lungs
I will love
I anticipate what life has in store for me
I will learn to just BE!
I will try to update this blog every day with a little something to keep my followers informed of my journey. Walk with me if you like :)

Uganda LGBT Volunteer Found Beheaded: Video
A volunteer for the LGBT advocacy group Integrity Uganda was found beheaded on a farm during a search for a missing priest.
Jim Burroway of Box Turtle Bulletin points to the Anglican blog Changing Attitude, which says that searchers found the head of Pasikali Kashusbe in a pit latrine on the farm of Badru Kiggundu, the electoral commission chairman, in Makindye Sabagabo, Wakiso District. They were looking for the Rev. Henry Kayizzi Nsubuga, who disappeared last month after delivering a sermon supporting gay people.
“Judith Nabakooba, a police spokesperson, identified the head as that of Pasikali Kashusbe, one of the workers on Kigggundu’s farm and a member of Integrity Uganda,” reports Changing Attitude. “Pasikali and his partner Abbey are youth workers with Integrity Uganda charged with the responsibility of mobilising young LGBT people in activities which build community capacity to face up to the challenge of homophobia, especially in the area of attitude change and care through drama and sports activities.”
According to Changing Attitude, Pasikali disappeared almost four weeks ago when Uganda celebrated Martyrs Day. A mutilated torso found earlier in the week about half a kilometer from the farm is believed to be Pasikali’s. The torso was that of a man and had no genitals.
Details on suspects and arrests remain vague, according to Box Turtle Bulletin, which included the following video report from NTV Uganda.

Who Am I?
Do you ever feel like you don't recognize yourself? You find yourself wondering what happened to the person you used to be? Things you used to do, places you used to go, words you used to speak, thoughts you used to have. You look up one day and stare at yourself in the mirror. The face looks familiar, but something is off. Your soul and spirit has been damaged so. The light no longer shines in your eyes. The innocence that was once there has been stripped away. You feel bare and naked. Hiding as if you're in Eden. How do you reclaim yourself?
