Every.Damn.Day💘 I’ve had this thought in my head for some time now. With everything going on in the world these days {ie. covid, global warming creating natural disasters left & right, political injustice & unrest etc.} …just getting through the day with your head up is a feat. Be kind to yourself & each other. We made it through another day!!! During these trying times, that deserves a celebration!!!

My mother introduced me to the poetry of Maya Angelou when I was a young girl. This beautiful,captivating painting by @artbywak reminds me of the poem “And Still I Rise” You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I’ll rise. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? ’Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells Pumping in my living room. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I’ll rise. Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoulders falling down like teardrops, Weakened by my soulful cries? Does my haughtiness offend you? Don’t you take it awful hard ’Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines Diggin’ in my own backyard. You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise. Does my sexiness upset you? Does it come as a surprise That I dance like I’ve got diamonds At the meeting of my thighs? Out of the huts of history’s shame I rise Up from a past that’s rooted in pain I rise I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear in the tide. Leaving behind nights of terror and fear I rise Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear I rise Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise I rise I rise. Maya Angelou #Repost @artbywak with @repostsaveapp · · · My latest..."

“Aaliyah just died.”

Nobody has any more fun for the rest of the night.

Fast forward 16 years and my cousin sends this picture with the caption “The night we learned Aaliyah passed.”

Imagine being so amazing, and so talented and so memorable, with such an incredible gift for connecting people to one another that the only thing that people – total strangers who have never even laid eyes on you in person – can remember about the day that they found out you died…is the fact that it was the day that they found out you were gone.

“Though time forgets us, let it not forget our passing. Grant that today we may do work that matters.” – The Egyptian Book of the Dead

Picture it: *Sophia from Golden Girls voice* Houston, TX, Daiquiri Factory, August 25, 2001. Just three girls kickin it. Everyone on the patio having a great time, occasionally jumping up and shouting “Remember this one?!” and trying to remember which Louisiana Bounce move was out when the song came out, when all of a sudden a total random stranger screams “Noooo!” into the payphone (yes payphone) across from us, slams the receiver (yes, receiver) down, runs directly to OUR table (We don’t know you. Keep that mess over there), slams her hands down on OUR table and says… "Aaliyah just died." Nobody has any more fun for the rest of the night. Fast forward 16 years and my cousin sends this picture with the caption "The night we learned Aaliyah passed." …

The #Rio2016 #paralympics has just began! I really don't watch TV & didn't watch the Olympics but the #paralympics is a sheer reminder of the tenacity of the human spirit! Not celebrating his achievements but his spirit... This is Kurt Fearnley. He is 35 from New South Wales town of Cowra. He was born with sacral agenesis; he is missing certain parts of his lower spine and all of his sacrum. In lay man's term: he has no lower body. He's 1.4m (4"7') tall. At the time of his birth, doctors didn't believe he would live longer than a week. But at school, he took part in all sports including athletics, rugby league, high jump then wheelchair racing at the age of 14 and to an elite level at the age of 17. After leaving Blayney High School, he moved to Sydney to train and start a Bachelor of Human Movement degree. He has run over 35 marathons and has won Gold, Silver and Bronze medals in 5 different #paralympics. He is also a teacher... Now what's your excuse in not pursuing whatever it's you're supposed to or set your mind to. Nothing is almost impossible to a human, then let alone if you've God on your side. #beinspired #mindset #thehumanspirit Follow my #SocialCommentary #thehumanparadox on 98.7FM

The kids ate a lunch of boiled pasta and corned beef out of a tin. Dessert was chocolate biscuits and a bottle of coke. Five people live in this room, using an outhouse for a bathroom and garbage bags to store clothes. Yet, the atmosphere was lively as ever. Grandmother read a book on insects to the 2-year-old, neighborhood kids came in to play, and the mother of three taught her son to share. No matter how small a place, no matter how tight a budget, people make it work. And excel at it. #fieldwork2016 #tandt #thehumanspirit (at Sangre Gande)
