Uh, who the heck is Tonya D. Floyd, and who cares what she thinks about anything? Well, you do. Because what I have to say was written for or about you; you just don't know it yet. Go ahead and skim through a few of the thoughts here and see for yourself. Watch how often you nod in agreement. Consider it a try-before-you-buy kinda deal. You'll find that this is well worth the read, and will make a good reference book-and gifts. Let's not forget about the copies you'll buy for your loved ones. I'm no different from you really. Yeah, I sit around thinking a lot, and I've written a few other books already-pretty profound stuff if I say so myself. But the thing that binds you and me is life-the good, the bad, the relatives; we all have stuff. Regardless of where you're from, or what you do in your spare time, neither you nor I can run from good ole life, and all that comes with it. So I write books to find the people out there who don't mind comparing notes. But before long, I had something like my own editorial column going, and my small circle of readers grew into a big one, and spread out into my readers' circles, and then I found out I was a hit. Somebody recently told me, "Only you say the things so many people are thinking, but would never have the nerve to say." Actually, a few somebody's have told me that over the years, and I'm cool with that. I actually started a blog last year because of this thought for the day concept. People really wanted to hear from me. I even tried quitting, but apparently I make sense on most days. I had no idea all this stuff in my head would come in handy on this level. Now I couldn't stop if I tried. Each new day brings new challenges, new people, and so much to write about. I love it. Thank you all for allowing my thoughts and me to speak to and for you. I'm humbled. TDF
