A Black man who is charged with raising their children to be the best version of themselves is powerful beyond belief.
“Even if you were were given the privilege to live twice, you would never repeat the same day twice. And if you are wise, you will only need to be told that once.”

“Everything has
its own pace
its own timing.
True of working, studying, learning.
True of illness, sorrow, grief.
True of change, of transformation.
True of conflict.
True of peace.
You can't change the pace
without changing its nature,
changing the experience.
And the experience is its own end.
The end never justifies the means
because every means is its own end.
It's not just about you,
your natural pace,
it's about what you're doing
what's being done
butterfly effects
over miles and years.
The river will not be pushed.
The rain will not cease until it has finished pouring down.
The sun will not rise before dawn.
This is where we are.”
