| Miss Higgi at 56! |
Today is no exception. Per usual, I awake on the dawning of the day of my birth, June 8th, to celebrate me in yet another foreign land which is not so foreign after all, Bahia, Brazil. I have been to Brazil before but never to Bahia. I purposely came here because the population is largely of African descent. It is reported that Brazil has the largest concentration of Africans living outside of Africa. I believe it! It is so beautiful to spend my birthday surrounded by like people similar in look, in ancestry, in struggle but most importantly in pride. I am immeasurably thankful to be here and most grateful to be alive to celebrate 56! Happy Birthday to Me!!!
