This is a pep talk (mostly for me): You are rested and have reset. Now is the time to push harder and go after everything you asked the universe for. If you’re scared, good. Use it. You’re right where you are supposed to be. Trust 👏🏾 the 👏🏾 process 👏🏾 and sing from your soul! Perfection doesn’t exist!

Being attracted to someone and being interested in someone are two different things. You can hear a song at a bar and be like I like this song and just leave it at that, that’s attraction or you can find out the title, the artist, who wrote it, or the inspiration, that’s interest.

When the Wampanoag first fed the Pilgrims
they didn't realize
they'd just invented Socialism
for undocumented refugee immigrants.
Happy Thanksgiving.

I DONT appreciate that Maxwell’s wasn’t included in this collage. He had one of the most riveting, and charismatic unplugged’s so early in his career. This is also the FIRST time we heard him sing “This Woman’s Work!” #musicsky #rnb #mtvunplugged #maxwell
