𝟐𝟎 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 - 𝟑 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬
𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟏
𝐓𝐨 𝐌𝐲 𝟏𝟑 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐎𝐥𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟:
Oh sweet, Brown skinned child,
I see you,
Taller than most girls, yet never looking down
Called “big,” but with an even bigger smile.
You are smart, so serious about your future,
Yet still Silly and social,
Certain you would grow into a phenomenal 4th grade teacher.
Time spent at basketball practice or leadership meetings.
Evenings talking and hanging with friends,
Wandering aimlessly around the Antelope Valley Mall
Still free to be a child,
Until the evening of December 26th,
When your back met the cold, hard steps of that service entry stairway.
A pain that can only be described as sheer agony
Despair felt in every one of your 30+ trillion cells.
The tearing of your innocence.
The theft of your being.
The end of your childhood.
Frozen in fear,
Silenced.
Oh Beautiful Black girl,
I know you only wished to keep your brother safe
By silently enduring, being ate away
I wish you realized that YOU deserved to be safe too.
That mountain of continuous rape and sexual assault,
Covering the pain with a smile on your face,
It was an unjust burden to bear at such a young age.
13- what an unlucky number.
You wore the scent of shame, embarrassment, fear.
You spoke of nothing and kept it all inside.
I know all you wanted to hear was that your brother would be okay,
that YOU would be okay… & let me tell you, even after two additional rapes in college, you
are more than okay now.
And look how beautiful you’ve grown to be! by @breebeserious

𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟐
𝐓𝐨 𝐌𝐲 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟:
I really am fine.
Skin chocolate brown, clear and radiant.
Hair long and healthy.
Body fit, thick.
Dimples deep,
My smile is infectious.
& I’m funny.
Where does it end? It doesn’t.
That’s just my external greatness!
As fine as I am,
I am intentionally an even better human being.
This heart of mine, God it is gold! Good to a fault at times.
This energy of excellence exudes from my being,
I am A1. I am top tier.
Even in those times of darkness and self-doubt.
I am learning to put myself first.
I am unlearning the lie that doing so is selfish.
I am navigating the very unfamiliar space of making decisions,
based 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐥𝐲 on what is best for me.
It feels like war.
It feels like violence,
but it is also very liberating.
Though I am amid life transitions,
I am just now walking into the power I truly possess.
Heartbreak tends to do that.
I feel most powerful when I use my voice & put myself first.
20 years removed,
I am still sunshine, light in a dark place.
I am proud of the fact that thoughts of suicide never manifested in the physical.
I am proud of the fact that I am 11 years into this career, teaching 4th grade like I said I would.
I am proud of the fact that I haven’t allowed life to harden my heart.
I am proud of the fact that I still choose to see the good in
people and situations
I am proud of the fact that I still love love and Black men.
I am certain what's ahead of me is far greater than what’s
behind- exceeding, abundantly above all that I can ask, think or imagine. I am
certain God has already laid out a plan and path that will literally blow my
mind. I just don’t want to miss it.
My current mountain is confidence, consistency and
self-forgiveness. Helping people climb and overcome as I continue to do the same.
I now wear the scent of assurance. Assurance that God really does have it, that He has me. Assurance that things really do get better when you keep going.
My tears have taught me to share my life with others. My tears,
my trials and triumphs are not my own. Everything I’ve been through and everything I have overcome is to help… by @breebeserious

𝟐𝟎 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 - 𝟑 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬
𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟑
𝐓𝐨 𝐌𝐲 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟:

The tomorrows
Even though you are not promised, I still want to believe you are coming.

There is no mountain to climb now.
I am at the peak
In fact, I AM THE MOUNTAIN.
A mountain full of sustained strength, grace and forgiveness. A mountain made only of God’s love. A mountain void of shame, guilt, embarrassment and fear.

From this precipice, I feel the sunshine, I experience ease, care and concern, I exist in peace and embrace new beginnings. I am immersed in joy, laughter and reciprocated love. I am surrounded by the unconditional love of my family, students and true friends.

I am certain that as I mature and master this love I have of myself, he will find me. A victor in his own wars. He has a vision and plan, not only for himself, but for us. His lips will speak of protecting my heart and honoring his word. He wears the scent of a servant leader, concerned only with pleasing God and covering our family. He is certain of his feelings for me and 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝, openly, for the world to witness. Now any tears we shed are those of gratitude to God for answered prayers.

I am certain that as I mature and master this love I have of myself, he will find me- a strong, loving, caring, patient, affirming and honest Black man. A Black man God himself created to make me laugh until death do us part.

The tomorrows
Even though you are not promised, I still want to believe you are coming.
And I will continue to do the work today in preparation and anticipation of you. by @breebeserious

3. The Proverbial “Village” (Support System).
Originating from the proverb “it takes a village to raise a child, “the term has become a popular modern metaphor. It refers to a support system of family, friends, neighbors, and mentors who provide mutual aid and reciprocal support.
•
I know, without any hesitation, that I am so deeply loved & favored by God because look at all of His people He put in my life to love on me! It is no accident. It is no coincidence. It is the love of God, here on this earth.

Y’all some real ones. Everyone pictured and those who aren’t, love y’all deep. ✨🤍🫶🏾 taken in The Salisbury Center by @breebeserious
