I did some crazy things in New York City. Things I never thought I would do before I left. They were fearsome. One of the things I did was so crazy but also such a fear of mine's that as I walked I caught myself saying aloud "I need to face my fear". This one particular thing I did shocked many... many! I will say this: I finally closed my chapter in NYC. No page unturned, no acidity, no backfire, I learned, I discovered, I do not feel my position is in NYC anymore. I lived there for almost 22 years. Harlem will always be my community but I have a larger responsibility I feel, I have a bigger community to care for, it is not Andover, it is not Massachusetts, it is the world, my world. My world is everyone who I know, everyone who I have come into contact with. If I know you, you are in my world. I plan on keeping you safe and close. Soon I will not be using a phone but that does not at all mean I will not communicate with you. It's hard for me to even stay on here for much longer. In many cases it is hard to explain that telephones, computers, all this technology, it is hurting us so much, I guess to put it simple: We are so fearsome of letting go of something fake, we know it is fake, it is plastic, it is not real communication, we are so scared of losing ourselves without our phones or facebook or laptop, we are afraid of losing communication with those we love and quite frankly that is all BULLSHIT! Yes, I will prove this to the world because you are all in my world and I care very much about all of you. DON'T DRIVE AND TEXT! TURN OFF YOUR PHONE AT NIGHT SO YOUR BRAIN ISN'T GETTING FUCKED UP WITH RADIATION!!! TURN OFF YOUR COMPUTER AND GET OFF YOUR ASS AND WALK!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
