My senior year in undergrad at ECU…now I’m faculty…20 years sure do fly by! 🥺💜💛

I have a lot to say, but it’s deep down inside. Been trying to find a safe space to release it all, somewhere which love abides.

Idc, I’ll always love this jam. #real

I think in a matter of elaborate compositions... Mental symphonies is what I call it-and every now and then, I’ll write the melodies of my thoughts to convey to my soul.
