I Smiled on August Wilson Today

Today I smiled.

I smiled when: I realized that art comes naturally to artists because it's like our air and we can't live without our next breath.

I smiled when: I saw an August Wilson play at the theater. It is my favorite August Wilson play to date and it is entitled "Two Trains Running." (I'm starting to see a pattern with this art thing) I attended a brief discussion before the play and the lecturer, who knew August Wilson, said that he was always writing. He would listen to people's conversations and record his thoughts. He grew up to become one of the most famous black playwrights to date.

I smiled when: My niece wore the peacock earrings to school and she received a ton of positive feedback from her peers. That's exciting considering how picky teenage girls can be when it comes to fashion. That contributed to the success of my overall day.

I smiled when: I woke up and got that warm fuzzy feeling in the pit of my belly - the type of feeling that lets you know today is going to be a success.

I smiled when: My brother encouraged me to pursue one of my many talents.

I smiled when: I was able to spend time with my hubby, mother and brother. I love my family.

It was a good day today. Thanks for reading some of my personal thoughts ~ ( I know this is very informal, I promise I'll do better tomorrow.) It is presently 2am! I'm listening to "Window Seat" from Erykah Badu's latest CD, check the previous blog for that information.

All that glitters just might be gold.

Love, Peace & Hair Grease,
