To all ma ladiessss... ;)
Phenomenal Woman
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Where my Heart is.
Been some time since we've blogged. Every one's got their shit going so apologies on our behalf.
Been kinda off on what to blog about lately... i wanted to blog about something sincere and genuine, nothing else sticks out right now but NEW YORK!
I'm visiting again soon, and it's been the only thing on my mind for the past few days, lol. Maaan i love me some NY. If you haven't been, you're missing out. The feel of the city is just something so good. That's home away from home, always has been and always will be. If you don't like that big city feel, then DO NOT go there, lol.
I love the amount of people you have to brush while walking, the nasty subway smell, the insane traffic. The yellow cabs, police sirens, sneaks hanging off electric wires. That Nu Yawk minute. The millions of bags you'll always have to carry cause everything is so damn cheap. The never ending sneakers. The big lights. $2 cab rides.

Those are to name a few of what have popped in my head. If you haven't been... then GO! I promise you won't be disappointed ;)
These streets will make me feel brand new:

Be Real !
One of the things that kill me the most are... Liars. I just feel as though honesty isn't as hard as people make it to be. It really isn't that hard to be real and tell the damn truth right? Well, to some folks it seems like telling the truth is this ginormous deal. When you're such a big liar and practically lie about every thing you can, honesty tends to be hard for you. Nothing is worst then your loved one lying to you. It's the biggest stab in your chest. You may as well rip my heart out and step all over it, cause that's exactly how it feels. I just think "lying" is such a SELFISH thing to do, and I don't appreciate it in any manner.
Just be REAL y'all... Be straight up and honest about shit. Cause realness is what makes you stand out. I appreciate people who can be straight with me and tell me what it really is, cause at the end of the day, that's exactly how I'm gonna give it to you.
Real as it gets:
Cass
