A love letter

-
There was a time when I questioned if I could ever trust again

After the storm? Would I even want to?

Would it be possible for me to love?

Until I met him. I always wondered if "him" was someone I could actually meet

You make me feel safe, in a way that I didn't know was humanly possible.

Humans have become iffy to me, but you.

He's honest, and raw. He's an honorable man with a good character

And that's what I needed, and silently yearned for,

 I love you

You're a God-sent

I'm thankful for the mending of my heart, and the binding of my wounds.

I am thankful for the Lords healing
   me, without it I wouldn't be able to love you.

 Let's talk about my top 5 books of 2021 and why I think you should read them.  5.  A book on a love that is actualized In 2020, I needed a hard reset. I think most of us can say that we needed a break from the harsh reality we faced every day. As an honoree mention, Toni Morrisons God Save the Child was one of my first fiction books I decided to dive into as I started my reading to escape/for pleasure escapade.

This is a short read that gives you the sweet ending we all like to visit from time to time.  4.  A book that talks about an average black girl with a not so average expierence   Okay this book was so good, and so fun to read! I listened to this on audible and the narrator was EVERYTHING. I honestly couldn't put it down. This book shows multiple parallels in our world. On one end, we have a mid 20's black woman who is trying to

Before I was black, I was hidden in Christ. Before I knew my mother and father, I was hidden in Christ. Before trauma, I was hidden in Christ. Therefore, my allegiance, loyalty and true identity is not found in the outer self. But in Christ. Ephesians 1:4

  I'm writing on my phone at a stop light in Norman, because I don't want to forget what I just experienced. I feel things coming together for me. Decolonize data. Health Equity, and people of color. I've never felt more seen and heard more at my time at my job than I have when Abigail Echo-Hawk was here. Her words were captivating, her heart was on fire, and she opened the eyes of everyone in the room. Things often get white washed by white eyes and it pisses me off. Abigail said everything I have been trying to tell my white colleagues and more in such an eloquent way that bought tears to my eyes. I hope that I can speak to crowds like she does, and make strides in the lives of my people.
