It aint just about the chedda...

I am spending this morning contemplating forms of currency. 2009 was the year Scooby came to realize that money is the weakest and least valuable of currencies (please excuse my first and third person usages, I'm feeling literary and dense today, roll with it).

As I slide down the hill towards 30, allusions fade and existential ideas become tangible. I've always known a full life was more than money but I didn't know how divorced money and happiness were until now. I am indeed rich. My wealth is not evidenced by countless zeroes in my bank account nor is it witnessed by an entourage of servants adorning me in the accoutrements associated with earthly status. Rather, I have been blessed with another understanding and experience of rich.

Love, friendship, sex, time, art, and wisdom are all currency forms that I enjoyed this year. And let me say, I was LOADED... LOL.

My friends. Where does one begin to give thanks for my angels/demons? LOL. Mommy, Daddy, Darrell, James, Maureen, Crystal, Topaz, Sammy, Sigmund, Myah, Rhett, Holly, Sho, Rhea, Tiff, Amy, Chris, Kyle, Lida, Nicole... and all those unmentioned but un-forgotten. What can I say? Thank you for sharing your lives with me and being a part of my journey towards 30! Whether we were sitting on my couch "doing what adults do" or sending a facebook message to one another from across the globe, our connections run deep and defy ebbing.

Sex is so powerful. Used and enjoyed wisely and with respect, sex is a commodity. A tool:) Why most people don't know their power as sexual, sensual beings and live in it fully is beyond me. Ever since I was 17, I have been rich in this currency with many returns! I thank God for a fulfilling and wonderful sex life!!!!! Connection is healthy and part of a balanced, full, human existence... GET OUT THERE AND START DOING IT PEOPLE!!!!!!!

Wisdom. Enough said.

Thank you God for the gift that is art and creativity. Reflections of the divine exist for me in my most creative space as if my creator and I share a connection accessed by means of creative birth. I am rich as I commune with thee...

Lastly, I am doubly rich and blessed because you take the time to read, comment on, and care about what Scooby thinks. For this, I give thanks and love...

As always cover and flank me in your prayers for you can be assured I am always doing the same 4 u...

Happy Holidays
