Time Flies

I know it's been a long time since I've posted anything and mainly because much of my personal life has been a bit hectic which in turn made me really apathetic to writing anything on here which used to interest me.

In other words, I just didn't feel like writing anything worth mentioning.

But today, with the death of the Senegalese film maker Ousmane Sembene, I felt reminded of what used to make me excited about life and learning and the interests that I have. I always told myself, "I have to write a post about such and such a person" or an informative article about something from the world I learned or just some plain crazy facts that are floating around out there.

But I know this blog is floating between the two: what I just described and just random thoughts about what is happening in my own life.

I am thinking that I am going to keep this blog for the second purpose and just go ahead and create a second one strictly for the purpose of sharing what I find about the world. I've been wanting to express my opinions for so long about people such as Queen Rania or Lisa Ling. There's a whole lot more on that list of women I feel are good role models for others, because for me it used to be so hard to find. Or maybe if you think about it, the time frame that I grew up in has been a big change for women. That's within three decades: the eighties, nineties, and nearing 2010 (and no I am not anywhere near thirty).

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I'm going to change a few things around here.
