Your purpose will be used to heal generations. Don’t keep it buried nor hidden. You have something inside of you that God is going to use. A testimony, a story of how you made it through. How you stood though everything. Even when things was shaken. God was your firm foundation.

virginia Woolf's 1931 new years resolutions : "to be free & kindly with myself [...] Sometimes to read, sometimes not to read. to go out, yes—but stay at home in spite of being asked. as for clothes, i think to buy good ones."

[Dr. Maya C. Popa @MayaCPopa]

“Let us believe in a long year that is given to us, new, untouched, full of things that have never been, full of work that has never been done, full of tasks, claims, and demands; and let us see that we learn to take it without letting fall too much…”

— Rainer Maria Rilke

more authentic love. nothing forced, just pure intentions and flow. more patient love. nothing rushed, just ample space for understanding and room for growth. more consistent love. nothing that shows up when convenient, but instead, embraces the uncomfortable moments too.

[Feminist Witch 🇵🇸🇨🇩🇸🇩🌙 @DonCorleANN]

I want to have a very romantic year next year. From love, friendships and work. I want all my experiences to feel unbelievably unreal and beautiful. Nothing less. I envision a life of ease, love and bliss.

[Dr. Maya C. Popa @MayaCPopa]

She understood so much.

RIP Joan Didion (1934 - 2021):

bell hooks was a perfect example of a person in academia but knew that the vast majority of the people who needed the information weren’t in those spaces. She made feminism accessible to everyone and worked to subvert it from something only white women had access to.

[Bongani Tau @b_queerly]

‘Love invites us to grieve for the dead as ritual of mourning and as celebration. As we speak our hearts in mourning we share our intimate knowledge of the dead, of who they were and how they lived. We honor their presence by naming the legacies they leave us.’

— bell hooks

[Elnathan John @elnathan_john]

No one arrived fully formed. We all grow and keep growing. A lot of us were socialized in very conservative spaces. Most of us have had to unlearn and keep unlearning. No one should have to grovel and apologize for opinions once held that they have long outgrown and discarded.

[Scalawag @scalawagmag]

bell hooks on the radical uses of Black art: "We create collective awareness of the radical place that art occupies within the freedom struggle and of the way in which experiencing art can enhance our understanding of what it means to live as free subjects in an unfree world."
