Chicago is a such a complex and beautiful city. Despite all th eppl who need it to be a problem. You learn so much with you just take the time to talk to the people. I love Tonika Lewis Johnson's Folded Map project.

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit. Gentle Spades "I'm a veteran"

Don't make me fight you to take care of you. "I don't want to be a burden" is a mental illness that needs to be handled with understanding, grace, and love.

Listen. I think the ONLY reason the statistics didn't show more of us voting for 47 is becuase a lot of the men have "political ideas" but don't actually vote. There are no lies here.

A couple of weeks ago, I commented how, I came to regret all the judgement and advice I gave to folks who had kids before I had my own. Even if you're right... just be mindful. "Just talk to them" is always easier said than done. 😅
