About Michelle Matthews-Calloway

I'm a native Louisianan currently living in Dallas, TX. I have a B.S. degree in marketing, an MBA and a PhD in higher education administration. I love writing and research, and also thoroughly enjoy reading and working out.

I am passionate about cultural/ethnic diversity and interracial relationships; so much so that my dissertation focused on these concepts. I'm a widow, and I started dating interracially a few years after my husband passed away. In addition to blogging about interracial relationships and social issues, we also provide a podcast available on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Sound Cloud and Stitcher.

Next couple of days it will happen. Talked to my neighbor (the one who’s a photographer who took a photo of me today), she’s on Facebook, relieved my privacy concerns, as she is very demanding of privacy.

Hey Michelle: well, in that case,i’m joining. 🙂 Just wanna make sure the data sharing guidelines are reasonable.
I’d be good even if i wasn’t getting any returns and were getting kicked in the ass in return for it. I’d do it because it’s the ethical thing to do, even if no rewards follow. But i’m glad good things are happening to you in return.

Hey Jeff,

She’s a fan from our Facebook page – that’s where most of my photos come from – either from Facebook fans or people who email them to me. I keep telling you about our Facebook page and group . . . I’m just saying . . . .

I agree with you – being good is definitely better than being lucky. I believe being good is what brings the good things to me!

Just love this woman’s hair, WOW! Where do you find so many fabulous photos?
Anyway, to the point, Yes, being good is far better in the long run. Luck is a passing phenomenon. Being good has to do with substance. And if it’s real, substance persists. Being good is key to long term sustainability.
