….but remember, it’s the young people who are the snowflakes

Every time that I see these words that were spoken by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I cry because Dr. King is right. Jackie Robinson didn't just take walls down, he kicked the door open and broke through the color barrier. He dealt with hatred, racism, vulgarity, and vile actions wherever he went. On and off of the field, traveling, eating, or going home, he was attacked with unwarranted venomous hatred. Somehow, he remained unflappable throughout it all, and he showed up every day to play baseball better than most players ever could . His wife, Rachel, stood by his side throughout these onslaughts. Their indomitable spirit and ever present dignity are unmatched. They changed the world for the better. They made the world more inclusive. They made people understand acceptance. They are my heroes for what they did. They withstood so much negativity, and they rose above it to make the world and people better from their actions. Every day of my life, I try to make Dr. King and people like Jackie and Rachel Robinson proud of me. They taught me about love, acceptance, caring, inner strength, and they taught me to do the right thing. They made me a better person. They made me proud of who I am because they taught me to be good and kind and love all kinds of people. They gave me some of the best parts of myself, and I am forever thankful and in their debt for those gifts. We need leaders like these beautiful people now more than ever. We need to follow in their footsteps and stand up for all good people everywhere and do what's right to make this world a peaceful, loving place where all people have the chance to live a good life and be free. Thank you, Dr. King. Thank you, Jackie Robinson. Thank you, Rachel Robinson. Bless you all. You helped me to be the best version of myself that I can be. Thank you sooooooo much. You are my heroes, and I love you all!! 💜💜💜⚾️

I love you all. Thank you for showing me how to fight for what's right and how to love all good people. 🙏🏼

Frank - ‘it’s warm innit’

 ‘I thought you were wonderful in your last flick Kim...I mean I saw the preview and thought you were just sensational...and..erh, I hope you get to see your movie too’ 

Kim - ‘Thank you. You’re not only a wonderful singer Frank, you’re a gentleman too’.

Frank - ‘Well Kim, you’re not only beautiful, but you’re a gentleman too, (*audience cackles*) no, I mean..’

‘you know, it’s not so easy to sing a song to you’

‘...I can’t keep my mind on my work, you’re distracting me’
