Dont Forget the Food with your Netflix & Chill

I recall this post recently thinking of what makes a relationship the right one. Think about it. Most relationships today seem superficial and sometimes only a few layers deep. Remove, Netflix, sex, money, and food most relationships would age like racist white people or spoiled milk. People need constant validation, reassurance, stimulation, etc. from their…

Who am I

This question perplexes people especially here in America. If you ask someone to tell me about yourself or answer who are you? They start to describe what they do, where they’re from and where they were raised. They give you all these credentials as if they’re in a job interview. However that’s not who you…
