This evening, while shopping, I saw this journal, and the message on its cover sparked many thoughts in my mind. These questions surrounding "Finding yourself" and "Who am I?", I assume, are questions that most people have pondered as they try to make sense of, and navigate, this world. A few years back, I was at a writers' conference during which my colleagues, and I, were asked "Who got a hold of you and told you not to be yourself?" That was one of those life-changing moments that I will never forget: Be who you are. #tdarris is #msdarris (at Ferguson, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNEYMjrMDAN/?igshid=orv6x7od1vzk

I've just completed the major changes to my #SecondGrade school webpages with my #BitMoji. School starts on Monday! Given this historical moment (with the pandemic), I get to be a "new teacher" all over again. One of my objectives is to help parents to understand the vital role they play in their children's education and to not be quick to disqualify themselves from teaching their children because they are their children's FIRST and MOST IMPORTANT teachers. #wereinthistogether #TDarris #msdarris #MsDarrisIsDigital #backtoschool (at St. Louis, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEfklUjholl/?igshid=1hngdg92vl5fe

"When Will You Love Me" by Teyuna T. Darris When the song stops playing Then, the moon sighs And the sun gives up its shining — - Then, the man in the back corner Puts on his coat, and wipes his chin: Is that when you’ll love me? When the rivers stop flowing And the blue-birds sulk and refuse to fly, When the trees bow their limbs And all the leaves fall to the ground And the chipperwood forgets to breathe: then it just decays and dies And all the dreams we gladly had Reluctantly fade away — - Is that when you’ll love me? Keep living your life: Rainbows last for just a short moment — - Refuse to die, and live free: Vespers love won’t choose to fly Please let me know when you’ll love me. #tdarris #msdarris #stuffiwrotefrommyheart https://www.instagram.com/p/CCpjU8JhiKH/?igshid=if4tlt48atg2

This #flower has bloomed in the #garden. Upon seeing it, I remembered a scripture which says "I have a plan for you. Not for calamity, or bad--- but, for good. And, it involves your future: full of hope🌷 (Jeremiah 29:11)." It's time to put #hope to work🧰 #tdarris #msdarris (at Ferguson, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA01LVKhKVx/?igshid=zq24vaa64oir
