Bowl of Precious

#Justice for #GeorgeFloyd? No Justice for the crime committed? Yes. I bawled for a long time after hearing the verdict, but my tears weren't just for that. With the first #guilty, I heard #KING ring in my head. With the second guilty, I heard #DIALLO. With the third guilty, I heard #BLAND, for she has followed me since her death, and I will forever believe she was murdered. My tears represented every fallen black body—gone too soon from #policebrutality. And the dire need to continue fighting against these evil acts. #BlackLivesMatter https://www.instagram.com/p/CN6NxiSjiUz/?igshid=164k8lmk3giiq

A word... Don't be mad because someone's making the moves that you don't or won't. #lessons #quote #message #advice https://www.instagram.com/p/CNx52hXDO8U/?igshid=nyncjmfw70ln

Been thinking about Earl Simmons aka DMX throughout the day. It might seem fake to hear, especially today, that he was in constant rotation in my music, but it's true. YEARS ago, I had created a playlist of my fave songs by X that I would play when battling the extreme ends of emotions: anger (to the point of wanting to beat somebody's ass, #letsgetiton, #xgongiveittoya, #getatmedog, yo!) and sheer jubilation (and I wanted to be uber amped frfr, #partyup). The beats, the lyrics, his delivery--was (and still am) there for it. He spoke a lot of his truth in his music, and as a fellow artist, I can empathize, sympathize, and realize how cathartic that can be sometimes; it can help let the beasts out of the mind for a bit. I pray he has the peace he journeyed toward, and I lift prayers of peace and comfort to his family, friends, and fans. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNdqLsjDEBV/?igshid=1ozfu9149bry6

Your acknowledgment of someone's guidance, efforts, work in your success can level that person into their own success. #acknowledge #thankyou #success #passiton #liftup #thought #word https://www.instagram.com/p/CNQ81K2DSIK/?igshid=1rl28ul2yr4vl

He. Is. Risen. Rejoice in this and what it means for you. Have faith in what He is doing in and for you because of this. Happy Easter. ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CNPllPeD0VA/?igshid=j1okyyvruqfa

April 1. First day of the second quarter of 2021. The day that leads us into Easter Sunday and the death and resurrection of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. His blood. The Holy Spirit. I do not want these things to be "in vain" within my life. BEEN time to lay prostrate, empty self, and be filled my heart's desires. The first three months of 2021 have been a doozy for me, and I'm clinging to the Lord to strengthen me, to build my endurance for the next three so that dreams and goals are manifested. All numbers in March led to the word #POSITIVE, to be positive in both thoughts and words about myself, and so I'm dedicating this next quarter to being POSITIVE and leaning on Father God to perform his miracles; bring the right people and opportunities into my life for success and positive growth; and move me and mine into a new space of peace, balance, and joy to LIVE OUT LOUD.  #2021 #angelnumbers #secondquarter #loveaday #HUGSlove #positivity #affirmations #selflove #Jesus #God #Easter #HolySpirit https://www.instagram.com/p/CNJpPHsjskY/?igshid=or4elav3hy2x
