>>I like that I’ve lived long enough to recognize patterns, which helps me not hesitate to say, “No” to situations that aren’t in my best interest and to walk away from people and situations at the first sign of a red flag, before they waste my time. I am a fuckery whisperer.

Oh, man. I so wish that aging had made me as wise as Deesha. I just this week said "yes" when I should have said a big fat "no."

Loved this post!

You may not have made it to Paris for your birthday (yet) but your engaging response to the questionnaire and playful photo show your “joie de vivre!”

Very late to the party but really enjoyed reading this. I also relate to being more curious and intrigued by things as well as feeling that time is not to be squandered. Great post and look forward to reading The Secret Lives of Church women.
