A Change Is Gonna Come
Having a relationship with Kellie Easton results in me: 1. Being in spaces I didnât even know existed. 2. Showing up because I know it must be important if Kellie invited me and 3. Never really quite knowing what those spaces entail. Today thoughâŚstarting early this morning, I was in a space that offered some… Continue reading A Change Is Gonna Come
