Love this quote. Whether the road is to a romantic relationship, a better job, a new lifestyle, a larger bank account, whatever it is, it’s not always easy getting from point A to B. There may be detours, lanes closed, back-to-back traffic, may be stray animals in the road you have to dodge, Mr. Mayhem could be tryna distract you. You may get tired of waiting and take a quicker path (good luck with that). You never know what you’ll come across on the road to success. Being patient, careful and keeping your eyes on the road (and not the rear-view mirror) will help get you where you want to go.

Perfect description Orema!

What kept me sane was knowing things would change and
it was a question of keeping myself together until they did.

Ignore the glass ceiling and do your work. If you’re focusing on the glass ceiling, focusing on what you don’t have, focusing on the limitations, then you will be limited.

— Ava DuVernay —

Some days (like today) I love Ava and some days not so much. The same is with Toni Morrison and James Baldwin. They didn’t tell their stories to make us feel better, they told them to make us face some truths. I’m not in the mood for truths today, just some advice.
