I often wake early. Sometimes, I feel like I'm more responsible than the sun.

One morning, I awoke and walked to the shore. As I looked up, I could tell that I interrupted the conversations between the stars. Embarrassed, I looked out to the horizon. That's when I saw her. Mother Yemeya. She lifted her hand to me. She was far away, but the waves carried her gentle voice to my ears.

"Keep me in your heart, son. They will take you away from me. They will curse your breath and whip your consciousness until you can only survive on their air and contort to their cages... but keep me in your heart, son. They will take your horizon and give you land that will bear strange fruit, but keep me in your heart, son. You may forget my name, my voice, my songs... but keep me in your heart, son."

"How do I do that, Mama? How can I keep you in my heart when all of those things are taken away from me?"

"You will, because they will not know that you have a heart. They won't even think to look for one. This is where you must keep me. Keep me in your heart, son."

"Okay, Mama."

The waves stopped. Silence.

"Mama, I'm scared."

"Me too, son. Me too. But keep me in your heart."

Yemeya. The Mother Orisha. Beware the sea.

Just the presence of a righteous Black Woman makes me warm inside & kicks my spirits in gear. Y'all are genuine, funny, intuitive, influential & quick-witted.

Everyone learns from you, because you are the Mother of the Earth. Women like Dr. Frances Cress Welsing, Judith Scott, Assata Shakur & Nia Long all have that motherly cadence that grabs you & leaves you more cultured than before. 

A Black woman's glance used to intimidate me in my adolescence, but I smartened up around 17. I realized the power of those eyes. The essence. The history of royalty.

The Orisha/Yoruba overtones I just get from y'all.

Whenever I kiss a black woman's cheekbone, I have to pry myself off at 1 peck. I could just do it till the cows come home lol, but your boundaries are to be respected.

That's why everyone wants to be you. You are the measuring stick of everything graceful. Your regality is a catalyst for the unwarranted ego trips of other people. They can't defeat you.

It may sound sappy, but other women take several backseats to you, as far as I'm concerned. You are unmatched.

Stay wonderful, Black Woman. ✊🏿👑🧜🏿‍♀️

Sincerely,

The Black Man

Sweet Thangs, 🌟The lifelong dream to be published in a national magazine has been realized!! My Vegan Gumbo is gracing the pages of the luxe publication @colournarymag !!🌟 Colournary has given me my first showcase. Editor @epa___ says..."Our second issue is a celebration of First Nations, Black and People of Colour and their connection to water, however they interpret it.

Our life is fueled by the choices we make. When I was doing porn, I was disowned, talked about, and talked at. Everyone had an outlook on how I should live my life. In 2014 I left the adult industry on a quest. I lost all materialistic possessions. By 2016 I was purchasing my home, and purchasing everything brand new to go in it. Moral of the story, when you're not living right, you simply exist. But when you're on the right path, YOU START TO LIVE LIFE.. Most of the trial we go through are from self inflicted karma. You have to trust in the universe. Pray. No matter how hard it is, do right by everyone that you encounter, be consistent, and work hard. Everything will be ok. I was a young lady existing for so many years. Now I'm a grown woman. A Goddess. God is within me... Now I'm focused on building my next house from the ground. And everyone that had something to say about my life, are still talking. When you shine, others will always look at you different because they don't have the SHINE!!! #babymama #Goddess #exist #universe #orisha #pray #yemeya #oshun #nevergiveup #process #blessed #thenewmizzluvliblack1 #RealTalkwithTheNewMizzLuvliBlackandMoBinns #realrecognizereal #black #queen

Beyonce and Solange let you know that whether its the sun and the moon, Oshun and Yemaya, the Black Madonna or the Last Supper, black women {black mommas} are divine  

Tribe and Busta let you know they're not backing down to Agent Orange, they're not playing by his "rules", and broke down a wall on stage in defiance

the many shades of black resistance

[sodiumstreetlight]

Black men, shoot straight. How do you maintain your sanity in this crooked society?

I cope by connecting with any Oshun in my vicinity.
