A couple of weeks ago, I woke up at 4 am, and I could hear the birds chirping. I took a moment to listen. It was a welcome sound, and I had a happy thought … the sound of spring!
Dark Clouds of Racism: Black Lives Matter
In the past two weeks, I have felt as if there were a dark cloud hovering over my brain and body. Restlessly, I have been attempting to keep myself occupied, because doing nothing means I will sit on my phone. Regardless of what social media platform I use, the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement covers my feed.
The Day The World Changed
I pray for the time this will all end, but while that is not going to happen any time soon, I have new hope for the world in which we are living. I have to believe it will be better! Today, I don’t want to write about the reality we are living in, I want to talk about hope and change.
My Dream For All of Us
I would like to pay homage to Dr. King and write my own speech about a dream … my dream. One that I hope and pray will come true before I die. A speech that will only be heard by me reading it aloud. A dream I want to share with you, my children, grandchildren, and the world.
Hopes For The New Year
Prior to the start of every new year, seems to be the time when we reflect on our lives. We think about the past year and start to wonder what we want moving forward. In order to think about what our hopes will be for the upcoming year, we need to go back. Looking back on 2018 isn’t easy for me.
