I Found Myself In India

The air was was muggy and smelt faintly of spices.
I knew I had stepped into a different world the moment I stepped out of the plane.

I heard it would be weird and I heard it would smell different.  I heard it would smell, period.
And they weren't wrong.  But to me, it smelled wonderful.
It smelled wonderful because it smelled like a dream coming true.

There's something about India that has either begun to lace itself into my heart... or perhaps it was woven in to begin with.  Maybe its always been apart of my DNA.  I'm not sure.

Cleveland is for Lovers

God-lovers and Jesus-lovers.  People-lovers and dog-lovers.  Cat-lovers and basketball lovers.  Football lovers and baseball lovers.  Music lovers and art lovers.  Old lovers and young lovers.  Freedom lovers and Family lovers. Country-lovers and City-lovers.

If you’re born and raised here, there’s a lot you could love about Cleveland.  Except for road construction.  We all HATE road construction.

You either hate Cleveland and want to get away from it as fast as you can OR you have an undeniable loyalty to the 2-1-6 district.

I have been both.
