This book was in my dream this morning & it's worth checking out!

My Emma lost her fight with cancer yesterday. I'll never forget the way she loved to slowly, methodically sniff every flower in my mom's garden. I'm thankful all of the hours she sat with her face resting in my lap, every flutter of her eyelashes reminding me how much she loved me. My grrrrl taught me sooo much about what it means to love and trust and I miss her terribly. ❤️

tryin to let it sink in that this is a real thing i saw today

Happening NOW (12/24/14): ANOTHER black teenager has been gunned down in St Louis, just miles from Ferguson. 18-year old Antonio Martin was killed outside of a mobile gas station late Tuesday night. Details are still emerging, but the similarities to Mike Brown are stark. #staywoke

Sgt. Thomas McVicar of the Jersey City Police Department shot 22 year old Kwadir Felton, leaving him blind, after Kwadir pulled a gun on him, he claims. Kwadir Felton denied the accusation, stating that he doesn’t even carry guns.

"I don’t understand!" Felton yelled at a police officer before his mother was removed from the courtroom. "You didn’t have to shoot me in the head for no reason! You trying to charge me with something I didn’t do!"

Systematic oppression to protect a corrupt member of a corrupt force.

Nobody tells this to people who are beginners. I wish someone had told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase; they quit. Most people I know who do interest, creative, work went through years of this. We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know that it’s normal and the important thing you can do is do a lot of work. Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you finish one piece. It’s only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions. And I took longer to figure out how to do this than anyone I’ve ever met. It’s gonna take a while. It’s normal to take awhile. You just gotta fight your way through.
