Writing with Juliet Iwelunmor

If you are a dreamer come. If you are a big dreamer, a storyteller, a designer, or a beginner, come. If you are also a star, a warrior, the praying kind, or the restful type, come. If you like to dance, maybe even travel, come, come sit by me near a park named Forest. We have some work to do, beginning with this kissing hand from the gift we give back always, come, come, come. Our hearts begin with love and we are hiring.

My baby born at the beginning of the pandemic is in school full time now. I am so mesmerized by his growth. He take it all in full stride. We have story circles now every single even because that what happens at school. We read and read until he gets tired. There are endless art too, this kissing hand, his own, being my favorite. I see love in his eyes always and truly that is all that matters. Love for school, love for learning, love for reading, and love for humanity sake. They say look to children always, for in them you will find all you need. My cup overflows and it’s because love is all around, beginning with the kissing hand of my children. Ooh plus I am hiring. If you ever wanted to disrupt global health, implementation science, do things different and yes for a higher glory, please come, we are hiring and I am always willing to learn from you even as you work for our team. We like different so come as you are…

The above too was inspired by Shel Silverstein. My middle son, love and adores all his work. He is my difference maker and when I read this invitation from his famed book, I realize that I only wanted dreamers around me, so come, if you are a dreamer…
