That if some of the ideals that you hold dear aren't fulfilling you spiritually, psychologically, or. Philosophically, then you need to surrender those concepts to a higher or alternate authority. And develop new ones that become beneficial to you as a growing entity. All of yall are shit outta luck. Personal definitions and your world...

Thursday, February 10, 2011. The hero with an african face' by clyde w. ford. THE HERO WITH AN AFRICAN FACE.

Why do we not know who she is on the education circuit? Tongues of the ocean. Makes Bu...
