Old New York New New York Now New York

Okay, I’ve officially been in NYC for over 24 hours. Before I say anything else, I’m always amazed by the amount of beautiful men roaming the streets of my beloved city. WOWZA! It was amazing! Though I don’t see myself being back in a relationship, in a few hours, I saw at least 20+ possible future husbands.
After wandering aimlessly for a few hours, my feet are achy; but there’s no better way to experience the magic of the city. Walking in NYC is my favorite thing to do while I’m here. And though I left over 15 years ago, it feels like I never left; it feels like I still belong here. I haven’t yet left and I’m already looking forward to my return.

The piece here is titled, “Old New York, New New York, Now New York. “ It’s obviously inspired by Lady Liberty and a little bit of Warhol. Little fact I didn’t know about the Statue of Liberty is that a broken chain lies at her feet. I love the simple symbolism.

“Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.” Well said, Mr. Benjamin Franklin!

25 years ago, I dreamed of living here and every day that I lived here, was a dream come true. Every return back is a reminder to keep on dreaming of everything possible.
Thank you NYC for always making me feel at home. Thank you for the beauty and most of all the inspiration. Thank You!
