The above quote reigns true. The seat of our appetite guides us. It’s important that we pay attention to what we feed ourselves. What you choose to hunger for can either help you to become stronger or it can slowly kill you.
What do you hunger for? Ask yourself, what value will fulfilling this craving or appetite add to my life?
What you feed on is what you will hunger for. If you feed on negativity you will hunger for it and release it. If you feed on perversion you will hunger for it and release it. If you feed on life abundantly you will hunger for it and release it. If you feed on love you will hunger for it and release it.
May we feed ourselves with intention. May we feed ourselves well.

“I have a duty to speak the truth as I see it and share not just my triumphs, not just the things that felt good, but the pain, the intense, often unmitigated pain. It is important to share how I know survival is survival and not just a walk through the rain.”
– Audre Lorde

Have a blessed and awesome day!
How could a year just shy of 365 days bring with it light and blood?
Rays of revelation peaked through the blacked out curtains of our every day lives
There were signs, right?
Little speckles of rise and shine to start our everyday
I remember a time of closeness.
A brief stumble into the shoulder of a passerby
An exchange of folded bills and musical coins to the server at the Starbucks counter
There were no shortages of smiles then
No elevation of voices through plexy glass
Salutations offered with curved lips
No mask to cover our freedoms
We had light
Light not measured by 6ft tape and floor pasted shoe prints directing our comings and goings
We had light full like the moon through blacked out curtains
Peaking its beauty through our oblivion
Then, we had blood
Red and fierce
We painted war faces with our pain
Raised our voices with streams of light only for it to be dimmed by injustice again
We set on fire our rage
Light spread
and there was more blood
Blood in our streets
and blood in our homes
On our televisions
On our fingertips
Yet there were none on our hearts
Just blackened and hardened
But there were small moments of radiating glow in our busyless days
A pulse check
We are still here
Covered in blood and light

Its been a long time. I’ve been away and this blog has been stagnant. I know its not a great way to blog or to be a whisper in this loud world.
Have you ever just been in a place where you don’t know? Don’t know why, don’t know who and don’t know where? I feel like the shrugged shoulders emoji most of the time. I don’t know why I don’t know, I just do. That sounds like a mess full of words with punctuation as the icing on the cake.
Worry has always been a struggle of mine. Worrying about things out of my control and even in my control. Too many list and boxes to check in my daily life. Did I do this and not that?
Hey you! Yes, you! It’s okay to not know. It’s okay to just be present and in the now. It’s okay to not check the box and not care that’s it’s not checked. It’s not the end of the world.
Here’s to being in the moment and not knowing a damn thing!
Have an amazing Monday!
Evidence
The moon is stamped with your fingerprint. Only you unlock its light. The sun a glimmer from your eyes. The wind a sign from the depth of patience you have toward us. The rain, tears shedding love on a dying inheritance. But hope comes in spring. Where the chirping of birds are the tapping echo of your fingers against the thrones arm. The whirlwind only comes when you wave your hand. The seasons change at your command. The heat from summer a perfect place in your bosom. Winter, a training ground where deliverance is always near. I bow in awe of you. Every moment a beauty. Every sight is evidence that your are here.Tehilayah

We were knee-deep in a new pandemic when I noticed this film in August 2020. Immediately upon seeing the trailer, I was hooked. I could not wait to see the movie. Well, it is 2021, and the film is finally here, and you better believe I saw it. Here are my thoughts. If you are […]
