TODAY
I'm loving on myself: going for my walk, eating good food, speaking sweet words to myself, dancing by myself and with my loves
Loving on my babies: listening, hugging, playing, teaching them something new about at least one of their direct ancestors, I'll start with my Grandma Anne - my Mama's mama
Loving on my man: listening, cutting his hair, making sure he has space to do what he needs to do for himself
And I'm gonna do it all with a cool glass of ๐บ๐บ๐บ!
(If I'd planned ahead it would be ๐ ) โ๏ธ Getting free for me is about centering the self and prioritizing self mastery as a means to engage more fluidly, truthfully, organically and impactfully in our lives, our families, communities and world. โ๏ธ Getting free is about remembering and reclaiming not only what our ancestors endured but what they upheld and created in the face of and because of a war on their very existence. A war that we are born into. A war that we can end. โ๏ธ Getting free is realizing that many of the things we do on special days we can do every day. That we must celebrate life every day, even while we have armor on for the next battle. โ๏ธ Getting free is the remedy we seek. โฅ๏ธ๐ค๐
