Even though I was at the local festival, a Mexican Independence day parade is happening in nearby Little Village. Just because I may have become "whiter" by some people's standards, there really is never a way to forget about my roots. Interesting how people's standards of race define their entire world... #sundayfunday #notoanger #notoretributionpolitics #notpoliticallycorrect #imalwayschaotic #andproud #livelifethewayyouwant #anyoldtime #jimmyrodgers #alisonkrauss #countrymusicfanbyheart #oaklawnillinois #suburbsofchicago #suburbanlife (at Oak lawn fest "fall on the green") https://www.instagram.com/p/B2KWDYXgqt_/?igshid=9gayrlnfzrb9

Angry words brimmed on the tips of my lips, my heart began to overfill with frustration, I had zero control over mistakes made by others. What to do? Do everything I could then let the anger go. Speak with a kindness that I didn’t feel, knowing the emotions would catch up with my actions. Then rest in the knowing that all is well in my world, despite what it may seem like in this moment. #notoanger #nomorehurthearts #besafe #anxiety #ican #lifeextraordinary #christian #mindfulness #womenshealth #menshealth
