For the first time in a long while everyone who lives under #USA Democracy may soon begin to enjoy a new post-COVID balanced life.

The last one always seemed to speak to his base, President Biden speaks to our entire nation. After years of living in fear of Russian influence, and behind an imaginary border wall, then following 12 months of isolation and after nearly six months of listening to the big liar, Americans may soon find a way to go out to visit families, friends, and neighbors without having to face a life-or-death decision.

As you can clearly see, when it comes to decorating in general, the smarter fairer sex always tend to have the upper hand in taste.

Inside this balcony is probably a man cave and a male retreat or sanctuary inside a bachelor pad. The term is a metaphor describing an area where men and their friends can do as they please.

Bonnie and Clyde were an unstoppable team. The ragtag bank robber duo were inspiring legends everywhere they went.

Bonnie Elizabeth Parker and Clyde Champion Barrow were lovers who traveled the Central United States with their gang during the Great Depression. They were known for their bank robberies, although they also robbed small stores and rural businesses.

This image of their romantic embrace makes it clear why so many people were attracted to their story. Even if they were hardened criminals, you wanted to root for their passion.

Don't Talk to Strangers, could be the worst advice ever today. Assertiveness develops good social skills, and not having fear of strangers, promotes safety, not to mention meeting beautiful humans.

Don't get me wrong... Our mother's advice was good once.  As a father and grandpa, I want safety more than anything to protect them as best I can. However, avoiding strangers and social interaction ends up sending the wrong message in today's environment.

As a multilingual Latino educator and communicator, I enjoy working with people of all cultures, backgrounds, perspectives, and identities. That is why, behind the scenes, I practice what I preach and believe in leading as diverse and varied a team as the community we reach, ensuring that the digital content we create is more compassionate, and more representative each and every day. I have lectured at public as well as private colleges and universities throughout the USA, including an HBCU.

My teenage years may seem like ancient history now, but this was the beginning of fun, and participating in the dating game..

Making Friends

Old friends, best friends, new friends, colleagues, acquaintances, pals, buddies, and the term no one really wants to be, a frenemy.

Friends are a strange, volatile, contradictory, yet sticky phenomenon. They are made, crafted, shaped, molded, created by focused effort and good intent. And yet, true friendship, once recognized, in its essence is effortless. Everyone is someone's friend, even when they think they are all alone.

Life is short and unpredictable. Do the best job in everything you do and with everyone you interact with.

Live life to the fullest means facing your fears with bravery, an open mind, and a lack of prejudice.

Nothing is impossible if you work for it and are determined to achieve your individual goals.

It is only worth the sacrifice if it makes you and it makes your loved ones happy.

Expand your consciousness and have a broader range of life experiences.

Be real and always yourself, your own person, and follow your instincts.

I was born in the Pearl of the Antilles around the middle of the century, but I am not able to return to my homeland under the present circumstances. The description was reportedly coined by a European artist whose 1873 book of illustrations bears the title "The Pearl of the Antilles."
