Been at a loss for words these past few days. Nerves so raw just thinking of all that has happened in this world in the space of the days...weeks...months. The fragility of this life, the prevalence of hatred and sickness in this world can feel to real and sometimes terribly close. But you know what else is real, the Love. Hold your loved ones close, make memories, find your happy, share your joy, create beauty. Be the Change. Celebrating four years of marriage with this man today and feeling so blessed. We have come so far together and grown so beautifully just in these few years. I can only imagine this future of ours... #oakandcypressyearfour . . . #anniversary #blacklove #love #thisisblacklove #atllove #whatyouknowaboutthat #goodlove #bethechange #harvestmoon (at Silver Lake, Los Angeles)

Echoing my Tea Sisters here... 🍃🍵 A small group of us gathered every Saturday and Sunday for the better part of July. We sometimes sat, we sometimes filled vessels, we learned and relearned from one another. It was Sweet, It was Sisterhood in its purest form. Sisterhood, in this instance, came in the form of us coming together from a place of LOVE with the intention to sweetly support and thoughtfully teach one another how to yet again Walk in Beauty. I should mention that men serve tea beautifully as well, it's just for this particular "Tea Camp" of long time tea ceremony lovers and students, it was women who were called to show up. Feeling so grateful to @jess_lynne_karr for the giving us a space filled with the most beautiful energy to come together, @_ay.am_ I imagine this peaceful expansive space to be a physical depiction of your graceful heart. Grateful to @allmattersofspirit for the lessons and laughs and the willingness to truly share this practice from a place of respect and such evident reverence. Still have jewels poured from your heart into our awaiting cups spinning around in my mind 💎🍃🍵🙏🏾 . . . On that note, I want to let you all know I will begin holding morning tea ceremonies in my home starting very soon. They will either be announced in this space or through email, unsure of this aspect, space will be limited 6-8 seats. I'm excited to share this practice. It will be an honor to serve you ✨💜🙏🏾✨ . . . Also, this evening, if you happen to be free. I will be assisting with water for @sagelove tea ceremony from 5-6:30pm @wmn_space Hope to see you all at some point very soon 🌹🍃🍵 . . . #teaceremony #teacamp #globalteahut #drinkyourtea #beofservice #sisterhood #womensupportingwomen #thebeautyway #plant #plantmedicine #tea #meditation #practice (at AYAM)

Today's the last day to stop by @amplifierfoundation pop-up gallery in Silver Lake. In this current socio-political climate it can feel that we have hit a wall in progression, that we are in desperate need of new ideas that will move us in a more positive direction. But then there are organizations like @amplifierfoundation that are determined to keep momentum, determined to inspire thought and change and give us a platform to share and grow through the current issues in our global landscape. Thank goodness for those who's mission it is to inspire HOPE. In the darkest times the hopeful are our blessing. . . . #amplifierfoundation #feminist #strength #hope #inspire #art #laart #womensmarch #losangeles #silverlake #thatsdarling #thedarlingmovement (at Silver Lake, Los Angeles)

"things. that should be asked often. in every type. of relationship: how is your heart. is your breath happy. here. do you feel free." - @nayyirah.waheed Loving these words from Nayyirah Waheed. As my Venus is in Leo. This past new moon and the coming one are all about Love for me. How I am loving. Who I am loving? Who I am not loving? What are my triggers? How can I be more unconditional in my Love? Interesting what comes up when setting intentions about being a better Lover... ✨💜😸✨ Blouse: @whimbyaree Skirt: @wamuhuwaweru * * * #leo #firesign #venusinleo #love #pride #unconditionallove #africanprint #playwithpatterns #writer #blogger #flashesofdelight #blackisbeautiful #blackgirlmagic #poetry #nayyirahwaheed (at Los Angeles, California)

Made it to @mocalosangeles for the last day of the Kerry James Marshall exhibit and I'm so glad we did. What an extensive and moving body of work. Thought provoking, challenging. Well-curated. Truly one of the best shows I've seen in a long time. There are so many thoughts floating in my head about this exhibition ... What it means to be African-American in Los Angeles. What responsibility we have to share the truth of that experience. How things have changed... how things have stayed the same. How I overheard multiple conversations about where the heck this beautiful creative black community is hiding every other day?!!! I mean, I feel like I see ya'll at events like these like once a month! Can we get some frequency please because the vibe was just medicine. * * * #mocalosangeles #kerryjamesmarshall #happeningindtla #art #blackinla #blackart #blackartist #blackisbeautiful #blackbookla #artist #creative (at MOCA | The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles)
