As I sit here in anger. I can’t help to think of the bigger picture. I was angry, no longer upset because once again the system has failed us black people. The system has failed us ALL! Observing what’s been going on after the passing of George “Perry” Floyd, gives me hope, but I can’t help but to think how frustrating this is. WE shouldn’t have to tell anyone how to treat us, and the fact remains that we do. It’s too much work staying angry, and instead I use that energy into something more, something that I can always go back to. Yoga. It has been there for me during grad school, bad breakups, whenever I needed to slow down.

That’s what the world needs right now, to slow down. And now we don’t have a choice!

Having to constantly remind myself that everything will be okay is exhausting. Sometimes its okay to stay put and not do much of anything. Allow yourself the downtime. It can only go up from here. That’s life. We have to take the bad with the good.. even when it doesn’t feel right. We MAKE it right. That’s life. I’ve been doing a lot of things differently. I’m always thinking about how and where I’m spending my money, time, and energy. IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE when you think about your INTENTIONS.
