Signals to pause and assess what was underneath these unnatural emotional responses. What was I…

“I come as one, but I stand as 10,000.”– Dr. Maya Angelou Dr. Angelou taught us, through I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, that even when freedom is denied, the song still rises.That truth lives here.

I don’t usually rant. It’s not my modus operandi. BUT See, the problem with Thanksgiving is that open door that leaves room for the devil!

So, as I sit, exhausted, I realize this feels different. I’m tired, but this isn’t burnout. I feel…
