NOT ANYMORE.

"Is she always this quiet?" adults would always ask my parents. And no matter which parent I was with, the answer would be yes as my young self watched. At one point it made me wonder if something was wrong with me. Obviously I didn't give that too much thought, but it was still something I was always conscious of.

As I've grown, I learned that being quiet is not the issue. There are appropriate times to say nothing. However, in my case, this quiet became a crutch. A default when I'm afraid to share. It became a self-silencing. Avoidance. A very bad habit.

And since I'm in the practice of breaking such habits, I've been committed to speaking my truth. Even when it's uncomfortable. Like writing this very post. But all this growth & development is promising!

There was no better way to celebrate such a day. The Mobb got to gather again. This time to celebrate the Egbe union. A beautifully LIT four days we spent! We celebrated LOVE & FREEDOM!

Yo I love my friends!

Thank you in advance

For working through the confusion.

For taking the time for your self.

For nurturing me. And being careful.

For learning my true nature. And encouraging it.

Thank you for trying something different.

For committing to me. And having faith.

For remembering and acknowledging. For seeing my full depth.

I stand tall because of your roots.

I came across the trailer for this while scrolling on social media & I have to share!

This documentary shares the "story of a radical movement that sought to end heroin addiction in communities of color with acupuncture, led by Dr. Mutulu Shakur..."

Reminded me of why I do the work I do. Thank you to my guides who keep me grounded.

Please watch. Share. Discuss.

I didn’t understand all your decisions. But I always knew you wanted the best for me. Early lessons in “doing the best you can” left questions and sometimes hostility, but overall gratitude.

I applaud you for always doing your best. It’s offered me memories of fun, memories of responsibility, memories of what it means to be a Black Woman in the land of the ugly. Strength, Magic, Softness, Beauty, Confusion, Composure.

I still can’t make sense of it all. But I always know I’m grateful for the life you chose to keep and nurture. For the seemingly senseless rules and restrictions. For the truth you lived in and out. For the best you had to give. For the inspiration. For the sacrifices.

Happy Mother's Day.

I am not a mother yet. But I am preparing my mind, body, and spirit to be the vessel of the next messiah. I pray I gift birth to a creative and open thinking individual. One will break curses of fear and self doubt. Break curses laid upon their dark skin by ignorant minds. I pray for and work to maintain a healthy and nurturing living environment for my young flower to grow as tall as they can reach. Roots thick and spread far. I pray that my seed reach well beyond anything I could imagine for them. I pray that they know of the love I already have for them. It runs deeper than I even know or understand.
