Christianity, Ferguson, America & Me

Over the past couple of months, my world has been halted and turned into a nightmare by events that have taken place in my beloved Country.

From Mike Brown, Ezell Ford, Dillon Taylor, Charles Smith, John Crawford and Eric Garner, the blood of those who should still be alive have practically been screaming non-stop in my head....probably because of Twitter, but that's another story.

Throughout all of this, my biggest disappointment has been in the silence of those who seemingly have the power to change or at least call for substantial change in this country. The Christian Church.

Steve you're killing me!

So I was watching Tough Love-Couples, last night on VH1 and I was chagrined but also fascinated by something the host, Steve Ward, stated, "A healthy sex life is essential for a happy relationship."

Really?!?!?

So...umm...tell me why again?

Why?

Why write a blog chronicling the non-existent love life of a late 20-something year old Black woman?

Why tell about never being in any sort of a relationship, or never having been kissed or asked on a proper date?
