It feels like déjà vu, and not because I've started crying at random intervals during the day again, but because once again it is Black Love Day, or BLD. If you are a loyal reader of this site, you have no doubt heard me discuss at length about how awesome Black Love Day is. Here is a new article discussing the tenets of BLD. I personally love point number two:

To demonstrate love in action and service by performing at least five (5) specific loving acts - Love for the Creator, love for self, love for the family, love for the community, and love for the Black race.

Talk about a difficult demand – I believe that five acts of self-love is a strenuous order for any day. But who am I to argue the tenets of BLD? BLD is way better than V-Day. Plus, once again, the article points out that BLD is not something for African-Americans only, but for all people. So there is no need to experience any liberal guilt in celebrating this joyous holiday.

Am I forgetting something?

Oh, right.

Yes indeed, I am a creature of habit. And crazy.
