May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time observed in the US to bring about awareness of the mental health crisis our country is facing and to provide education and support to those suffering from mental illness.

Happy Valentine's Day to all my Facebook friends. Much love to all of you. I heard something interesting in church on Sunday. The pastor said we must love God and everyone else (including our in-laws!) but he said we cannot love anyone unless we first love ourselves. So, give yourself some love today. Look yourself in the mirror and say, "I love you."🥰

For the first time since I migrated to the United States, I’m spending Thanksgiving away from home. I’m in Trinidad where Thanksgiving is not celebrated and the atmosphere is completely different.
