My Fellas!

I have very inspiring friends. It isn't an easy job being a leader of anything, especially if that leadership involves direct contact with people under you. I'm always telling my friends about the different difficulties I'm encountering during my daily activities. During a conversation I was told, "No matter what you have to stay professional." Might not seem profound to many of you...but yesterday I had to remind myself of these words...and those words were the only things that helped refrain me from really going off on someone. So, I didn't go off, I didn't yell. I was calm, cool and collect...Stef, would have been proud! I'm always receiving words of wisdom from my friends...especially my male friends. For some reason they don't think I'm sensitive and therefore talk to me any ol' type of way with no consideration to my feeling. I appreciate the fact that they don't sugar coat things for me, but can I please have a sensitive moment??? Regardless of the way they speak to me (almost all of them...but never Tex!), the constant violence (Double A), or the fact that they can ask me about a dude but if I ask about a female they pretend as if they don't understand nor speak English (almost all of them)...I have so, so, so much love for my fellas!
B...he's my BMORE homie! he can be so ignorant, we can go back and forth for days...I can always count on him to be honest to me! L...he's my lil bro! he understands my emotions and is always looking out for his big sis. Double A...he's my bodyguard! he is there to smack me, but would kill someone if they did me wrong (I'm almost scared of him). Stef...he's my husband! he is so wise, when I need a good talking to, he's there. Dre...he's my babe!...he can definitely put I smile on my face. Tex...he's my sweetheart! he can fix anything, cook everything and is the sweetest person you will ever meet. They hold me down through it all...I don't have any blood brothers here in Philly...but I have several brothers in every other sense of the word. I am so grateful and thankful for that. Family is much more than the blood you share...it's the love you share!
