Easy Does It Boo Boo...

Hey my sistas and brothas in spirit, and that greeting has no color, so don't trip! What's up homie! Did you have a good day? If you're reading this the answer better be Hell Yeah! I tell you, I am so learning how to be present in the moment and thank God for every breath I take. I don't care what is going on in my life, I am so learning how to be grateful. Hope you can relate.

Ya'll my creative juices have been overflowing! I am in creative mode! Of course you get to benefit from my creativity so just know there are lots of exciting things coming from Marina The Poet! I have been wanting to create all sorts of things like calendars, mugs, tee shirts, etc. that highlight my poetry, and I am finally getting around to that. Oh how I love the creative process, don't you?

Please take the time to learn or educate someone about Juneteenth if you know the history. Today is the official day to celebrate Juneteenth, but some cities celebrate it all weekend. Here in Charlotte, NC we have a huge celebration and I had the opportunity to participate last year for the first time. It was a very moving experience for me. I honor my ancestors and thank them for the sacrifice they made for me.

Have a great weekend and do what you do best...take care of yourself and each other.

Peace & Blessings,
Marina
