My people perish because they're unable to love what they see in the mirror and love what and where they came from. Make an effort, every day to love yourselves and one another. We spend so much time hurting ourselves and each other for should'ves, would'ves, and could've's. We let many demons in our mind, heart and soul and they stay there, sometimes for a lifetime, oftentimes because we think we aren't worthy. You are deserving of love. You are deserving of forgiveness. You are deserving of happiness. You are deserving of care. You are deserving of positivity. You are deserving of passion. You are deserving of all of these things and more. We've risen through the darkest times and made it through the worst of times. We are a culmination of what was, a staple of what is and a promise of what is to be. We are divine. We are worthy. We are Lovely.
