Fully aware of how precious life is and remembering the tender, exciting and amazing muses that I have been blessed and no doubt favored to know.. I wrote this list. Enjoy it. Create a life you love.


The Things I will do Before You Are Gone.©
By Adrienne Wallace (June 2008)
1) I will tell you, "I love you more than anything ...except GOD."

2) I will squeal with delight when you have achieved something new or gotten more of what makes you happy.

I will stay as you pursue your delight and be a part of you capturing it.

3) I will steal your pillowcase when you are out of the room and replace it with a fresh one.

I will put the one I steal on my pillow so I can smell your essence when I nap or sleep.

4) I will hold your hand even if you were 'just my manicurist' and look into your eyes and say "Thank You"...

Maybe you're touching hands all day, but I want you to remember that mine appreciates yours. They are so warm

5) I will wish you the fullness of life because God has whispered to me that such is the intention for all of us.

6) I'll tell you the beauty I see in you, within moments of seeing it because moments are fleeting and this time may not come again. I say this hoping I get the chance to tell you again. I walked away too fast..you know when.

7) I will still you long enough to make sure you feel your heart's beat because the ability to do that is the key to real power.
Let me come close enough to hear it beating. It is music to my ears.

8) I will tell you the truth as I know it and encourage you to live your own truth.

9) I will ask you if you are happy. Are you? I want that for you more than anything.

10) I will consistently remind you to be careful what you do around children , because what they experience changes them forever.

11) I will ask you to come help me blow up ballons if we are together preparing for a celebration or nothing at all actually.

I will not let you tie the ends because I'll release several into my own hands and face so that I can feel your breath.

I may keep one so I have your breath even after you've left.



These things are guaranteed.

What will you do?

Before I am gone.



Love, light , and you know the rest......

Some thoughts on boys to MEN and I am not talking about the R&B group

My very smart, aware and ever evolving brother said to me a while back that there is and will always be a significant difference between boys and MEN. He shared a strong and poignant opinion that a lack of self respect often the self hatred , absence of love, abuse, or negative cultural conditioning will always impact whether or not someone who is biologically a man is truly that (an adult man) mentally and socially. He and I both believe that it is indicative most often in the way a man treats a woman. I can tell you some stories. There are boys over 30, 40 and even older and  there are men under 20 years old walking this earth.   I have a 2 year old nephew who runs to open the door for the women in the family and tries to take grocery bags and carry them to the table when we women enter the house with them.He's just a boy biologically and he is watching and learning from his father. I consider and would call those that are biologically men but not socially men .. "Old...

Where Did It Go? The question that comes when ownership is lost.

" Where Did It Go? " This is a common question asked about time, goodness, old regimes, and old relationships, memory and other than that... money and misplaced keys. Where did it go? We hear this amongst those of us who have not set a strategy and intention for what we have. This also the question that comes particularly from those of us who become all too confident in what we have but do not own. Ownership of one's talent,work, innovation, relationships and contribution is either an old or new concept in many places. What is encouraging is the ability to list our criteria for ownership and then be honest about what we truly own. Here are a few that I was thinking of today: Ownership of material things - You paid for it , don't owe anything for it to anyone Ownership of relationships - You tell the truth, engage with grace, and express mutual respect without excuses or references to what does not apply to the person you are relating to Ownership of innovation -...
