May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and I have needed every day of it. I have had to slow down and in some cases stop altogether.

We don't want anyone else's anything, we want our own. We've earned that much.

It will take time, but I am prayerful that the United States will return to a position of power with wisdom and grace in tow.

May you discover that your time is too precious, and that you are worth the time and effort of loving those who want to love you in return.

2020 has been painful for everyone, but you have pushed me to keep writing. I show up, because I feel a responsibility.

I voted early, and although you can't see it, I'm smiling. And, it felt good to cast my vote. I want you to feel good about your vote, too. 

Be an educated voter! Let's engage on purpose and get everyone to the polls. 

I am a fervent believer that anytime I am brought to my knees, I pray. After I pray, I walk, because faith without works is dead.

It's okay if you aren't just like Rep. John Lewis, but you are here, and you can do something. Make the ancestors proud!

Do something constructive with your anger. Pray first, then act on something good and useful. Faith without works is dead, so get going!

The unfortunate reality is that we are being systematically oppressed. We are tired!

The truth is that while we are not all in the same boat, we are all in the same storm.

We are wading in uncharted waters with the onset of COVID-19, and now more than ever, we need to act as one community.

Don't let someone else define your worth. Make history on your own terms, in your own way. Sisters, you mean so much to the world!

Gullah History is Black History, and Black History is American History!

That truth can be heartbreaking, but truth transcends color and cultures.

Hands down, fall is my favorite time of year. I love how the leaves change color in so many parts of the country.
