...as my Mammy used to say, "Do good for others"... Then she would add, "While doing good things for others, you discover your stride and with your stride, you'll find yourself"...
Thanks to her, I have found my world full of options... Yes, I did the work, but she lived up to her motherly imperative and nurtured me and my work in the direction it has taken me...
I have plenty more of my own to say about the "SELF"... This will do for now...

PS: Looking and/or carrying yourself in the likes of Marilyn Monroe, can produce a life of emptiness and sadly missed expectations... A past love affair was with such a woman, who everyone remarked that her teenage pictures reminded them of Marilyn, who grew up in the shadow of the Marilyn Monroe Mystique in the Hollywood area, now carrying the scars of a failed life full of failed opportunities and failed rehabs... She was only 17 when Marilyn was poisoned and died, but in 1962, the air was still very much full of Marilyn and her magical influence... Scary how this story repeats itself...
