  • Keep a heartbeat!

    Keep a heartbeat!

    Our hearts can begin again, a beat on their own, a life of their own, beyond fear that swallows their own, dreams and songs on their own, which begins like a beat again, all on their own, again.

  • Keep birds in flight in mind!

    Keep birds in flight in mind!

    Birds fly in three ways. Some flap. Falcons flap by lifting and thrusting their wings across the skies. Some soar. Eagles rise up on their wings and soar to the skies. Some glide. Vultures glide across the skies hurtling down like stones dripping from the skies. To watch falcons flap, see eagles soar or look…

  • Keep Black Women!

    Keep Black Women!

    The day begins with love. To women everywhere, especially those black and hive. Those that smile when we arrive. Those who switch tongues on overdrive. Those who blow kisses that jive. Those whose laughter we archive. Those who stay unmasked and alive. Those yearning for all the ways we thrive. Those who celebrate all the…

    Keep speaking!

    I know silence. I have seen it’s power. First they use language to keep you mute. Some are clear in their intent, others are subtle, all of them are designed to keep you silent. They succeed. Or so they think. First you are silent. You observe. You notice. You think. You note. You keep silent…

  • Keep unnaming and renaming yourself!

    Keep unnaming and renaming yourself!

    First we accept. All definitions will do. Formats and styles that worked previously too. We accept things as they are. We pray they accept us too. They don’t. We try and try and still we remain unaccepted. Then we begin to look inwards. We begin the work of looking at ourselves through their lens. A…

    Keep invisible things!

    We celebrate things we see. Birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, marriages, even funerals. But the things in life we rarely see, those that leave us breathless or speechless are worthy of praises too. I have shared previously that for every single visible thing I keep, there are many that remain invisible. Some the world may never see.…

    Keep a soulful life!

    How might we create the conditions for a soulful life. I am learning this every day. In a quest to do my most audacious work, I found myself strolling down a never ending hole of what it means to live your most authentic life whether at work or at home. For starters, and everyone will…

    Keep peace this women’s history month.

    It’s women’s history month and let’s just say I’m exhausted. Women, some, can be our own enemies. Women, some, can derail anyone and anything they think they have power over. The past two days at work has been disheartening and to think that I start this month wondering why some women are our own worst…

  • Keep being mist!

    Keep being mist!

    Being mist, I see that I may have to obscure understanding, drizzle like fine rain, enlist all fog, till they hear me roar.

  • Keep dreams!

    Keep dreams!

    I taught my first dream grant-writing course today. It’s been a long time coming. What we will be waits in us like an ache and today I saw it with my own eyes. I didn’t know where the words were coming from. They seem to come from a place carefully crafted for a moment like…

    Keep reconciling!

    I know now that hurt people, hurt people. That reconciliation is still necessary. That it leads to harmony. That life is too short. That things broken can be fixed. That the sun sends its rays to everyone. That flowers bloom for hurt people too. That words speak life. That forgiveness is like an egg. That…

  • Keep, keep your power!

    Keep, keep your power!

    Sometimes I struggle to find the words to keep. I’ll rather hide my thoughts from the world. Laying instead on the ground. Crushed and broken by the storms around. Sometimes, words won’t do. Wishing I could flee from the pain pursing me to my grave. Intimidated by the rage. I lay again on the ground.…
