“It’s a long journey but if you focus on the mini milestones along the way you will find beauty in the struggle of doing simple things that … were taken for granted. This will also mean that when you return you will have a new perspective. You will be so appreciative of being able to stand, walk, run that you will train harder than you ever have. You see the belief within you grow with each mini milestone and you will come back a better player for it.” ~ Kobe Bryant . . . #2 #24 #forever #rip #ripkobe #ripgigi #mambaforever #mambaout #love #legend #iconic #legendsneverdie #mondaymotivation #mondaymood #mamba4life #lakers (at MambaForever) https://www.instagram.com/p/B897soGpQS0/?igshid=kkuqaralf04a

Tips from a Teen on a Tuesday... . TAKE A STAND! BE YOUR OWN BRAND! . . Be you. Don’t know who you are? Well, you are in good company because neither do most of your friends. 😂 But a good first step in finding out who you are is to NOT be what others are as a default. YOU ARE AN ORIGINAL. YOU ARE A MASTERPIECE. ACT LIKE IT! Originality is found in authenticity. Don’t EVER try to bend your values or your personality to match someone else’s or to fit in. There is little value in being a copy, but an original is priceless. YOU ARE PRICELESS. Don’t devalue yourself by being a copy. YOU ARE WORTHY! YOU ARE ENOUGH! . . . . . Thank you Vanlinker for the glasses!! Love them. . . . #ad #sponsored #tips #teens #tuesday #tuesdaymotivation #tuesdaythoughts #sunglasses #vanlinkereyewear #beyou #beyourself #youareenough #youareamazing #youareamasterpiece #youareworthy #youareanoriginal #youarepriceless #orginal #worthy #masterpiece #amazing #betruetoyourself #brandambassador #model https://www.instagram.com/p/B8vUrHOpB_-/?igshid=1ri762jgdjg7g

Black History Fact... . . Uncle Tom was originally a character from Harriet Beecher Stowe’s 1852 novel, Uncle Tom’s Cabin. . And also interesting is the man that Uncle Tom is believed to be largely based on, Josiah Henson. . . Uncle Tom was a man who refused to beat black women. Uncle Tom was a man who refused to tell on other slaves. Uncle tom was a man who would put cotton in other slaves’ bags at night, so that they wouldn’t get beat! Uncle Tom was a man who helped 100 slaves get free long before the underground railroad. Uncle Tom was a man, that once free, established the 1st Laborers school for other fugitive slaves! . . His name? Josiah Henson! Josiah Henson was an author, abolitionist, and minister. Born into slavery, in Port Tobacco, Charles County, Maryland, he escaped to Upper Canada in 1830, and founded a settlement and laborer’s school for other fugitive slaves at Dawn, near Dresden, in Kent County, Upper Canada, of British Canada. . . So stop calling these sell-outs Uncle tom! That’s a compliment! Uncle tom is a man to be respected. . . . .
