Hurricane Katrina

Today marks the second Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. It's amazing how fast time flies. Two years ago this time, my family and I were scrambling to make arrangements to flee this storm that devastated a great deal of New Orleans, Mississippi and other states.

Upon reflection, this was a scary time and I'm extremely grateful the me and my family were able to make it safely home. It was rocky at times (literally and figuratively) but we made it. Til this day, I wonder what would've happened if the captain of our cruise ship wasn't able to stay ahead of the storm. I count my blessings everyday and pray for the families who were affected by this tragedy.

Music Makes It All Better

Events in my life have left me in a less than happy frame of mind of late. I've compensated by listening to music all day and most of the night. Tonight, I attended a concert in BK where the special guest was Ms. Anita Baker. Her voice is always soothing and she knows just the right song to sing to make one forget about their problems. I really enjoyed myself and it was a dose of what I needed. Music really does make it all better.
