Sensual Chocolate


Life is the hot chocolate...
your job, money, and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life. The cup you have does not define, nor does it change the quality of life you are living. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the hot chocolate God has provided us. Always remember - God brews the hot chocolate; He does not choose the cup.

NYE Do-Over

"I've always thought that New Year's Eve is proof that human beings are essentially optimistic creatures. Despite hundreds of years of pathetic parties and hellish hangovers, we continue to cling to the notion that it's possible to have fun on that night. It's not. There's too much pressure, too many expectations, too.. few bathrooms." - Anderson Cooper

I couldn't agree more! That's why I started hosting a 2nd New Year's Eve celebration. At some point in the middle of January, I get the friends (that I wished were with me at the start of the new year) for a party, dressed up in cocktail attire. Decor is cheap after the original celebration, and food is easier to come by. We can watch the Rocking NYE shows if its still on our dvr. Then, at the time we determine is "midnight" we all count down, watch the ball drop on YouTube, and yell 'Happy New Year' to anyone within earshot. My neighbors must think we're crazy... but sometimes waiting for that special New Year's kiss is worth it.
