Why Are We Saving the Good Stuff for Someday?

by Leave a Comment

I think a lot of us grew up in homes where there were certain things you weren’t supposed to use. There might have been good dishes that only came out for holidays, towels nobody was supposed to touch, furniture that seemed to exist primarily for decoration, or candles that remained unburned because ...

Why do we keep saving the good stuff for “someday”? The nice dishes, the expensive perfume, the outfit we love, the candle that smells too good to burn. I’m starting to realize that ordinary days are still part of the life we prayed for. Maybe Tuesday is enough of a special occasion. Use the good stuff. Enjoy what you have. Today actually showed up.

Saturday Mornings Just Don’t Feel the Same Anymore

by Leave a Comment

There was something special about Saturday mornings when I was growing up. I don’t remember anybody announcing that Saturday was special or explaining why I should appreciate it. It just was. You woke up knowing there was no school, no alarm clock forcing you out of bed, and no rush to get dressed ... READ the POST

Remember when Saturday mornings actually felt special? Cartoons, a bowl of cereal, riding bikes, playing outside, and having nowhere important to be. Somewhere along the way, Saturdays turned into errands, laundry, grocery shopping, and catching up on everything we didn’t finish during the week. Maybe we need to bring a little of that childhood Saturday feeling back.

Happy Birthday Dr. King

by Leave a Comment

Every year when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday comes around, I pause, not out of obligation, but out of respect. This day feels personal. As a Black woman in America, Dr. King’s legacy isn’t something I visit once a year. It lives with me. It shows up in how I move through the world, how I ... READ the POST

This day isn’t just a remembrance. It’s a celebration of a life that shifted this country and a reminder that we are still part of that story.

What’s Up with All the Hatred?

by Leave a Comment

At 45 years old, I’ve lived long enough to recognize a pattern. Hate isn’t new. What is new is how bold it has become (again), and how tired it makes your soul. Hatred is EXHAUSTING! I don't see how people do it... choose to carry hate or anger in their hearts. Choose to be divisive. ... READ the POST

Hatred is exhausting, can we agree on that? This post includes a short prayer for healing.
