Happy Birthday Deshaun Holton aka Proof aka Dirty Harry aka My Heart...

Something you all may not know about me because I don't speak on it much as it is still a great sadness in my heart...There is not a week that goes by that I do not think about this great man and there is not a week that goes by that I do not shed a tear for him...His name was Deshaun...I always refused to call him by his rap name 'Proof'...I have so many lovely memories of this man and I guess that's part of the heartache too...He was my one and only love and my number one mentor...He taught me how to be a better person and how to fight for what you really want out of life even if it hurts so bad you want to quit...HE taught me how to write...I am more than grateful to him for this lesson alone...HE taught me how to read the dictionary to expand my vocabulary...HE taught me how to challenge my own mental capacity...He taught me what love is and how it hurts...He is the reason I am the woman I am today...The good and the bad of who I am...But mostly good...He is the epitome of love...He is greatly missed by me but I know HE walks by my side all day, every day...I find comfort in the fact that, as he promised, he never left my side...And he never will...Today is the celebration of your born day too DeShaun...And tonight I'm gonna party like we always did...In true Libra fashion...We are so proud to be who we are and we never falter for anyone...HAPPY BIRTHDAY DESHAUN, I LOVE YOU UNTIL THE END OF TIME...

I wear this proudly...

Happy Birthday VirLibran...

+

=

Today is considered the last day of the Virgo/Libra cusp...Some will even argue that the cusp day ends on September 23rd...And that those born today are true Libras...I still consider today a cusp day...In light of the celebration of the last cusp day and the ushering in of the greatest astrological sign there is, here's a little bit of insight on astrological aspects of those born on the Virgo/Libra Cusp:

Virgo/Librans are happiest when they're in a relationship. They are seductive and attractive, and their cultural awareness and talkative nature help them shine in the social situations they so enjoy; although at times they can be prone to being superficial due to their love of beautiful things. They tend to explore subjects deeply and are very good at understanding the deeper meaning of what others say. Many Virgo/Libras have an excellent head for business, relying on logic rather than ego or emotion to make their deals. They are reliable, practical, diligent, self-possessed and rational.

Brief Personality Overview

-- Possesses the discriminating and rational traits inherent in Virgo --

-- Possesses the social traits inherent in Libra --

-- Tend to be obsessed with beauty and sensuousness --

-- Prone to be very attentive and concerned with details --

-- Tend to lack depth in the intuitive and emotional spheres --

-- Need to try and not be overly-concerned with outward appearances --

-- Need to avoid becoming jaded, trendy, impulsive or compulsive --

-- Need to keep the nervous system under control --

I knew a VirLibran man once, so I'd say MOST of this is true...Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY...Now bring in my lovely sign!!...Yes, I LOVE being a Libra!!!!!
