Made a list in my journal titled, ‘I like the way I feel when…’, and it’s a list of nice things I do for myself so I’m reminded to reach for them when I want to feel better.

we live on a planet where trees warn each other of danger through underground networks. where octopuses dream. where elephants return to the bones of their dead and stand over them in silence. where bees communicate through dance, showing each other where to fly. where flowers bloom...where crows remember human faces -especially those who were cruel to them - and pass that memory on to their young. where ants build entire cities. where cats purr at a frequency that can help heal bones. where forests, after fires, grow flowers first.

It is a simple life. The air is fresher, the people are happier to see you (maybe because they don't see you as often) and you get to have a place of belonging. Your neighbours in GP can change with one call to an estate agent, back home that is not the case. More stable. Predictable.

You don't need to book an airbnb for the quiet, just a few bags of groceries in the boot or even feeling welcome when you come empty handed. Depending on how rural it is, the simplee acts become an adventure. From cooking to heating up water.

You can trace the lineage of everyone around you. That dude you are fighting with at the tavern, his grandfather and your grandfather were friends. Your surname means something and not just a diluted sequence of letters on a title deed that means nothing to everyone around you. Your loud family coming together is not a Body Corporate fine.

Greeting is not met with the silent question of "What do you want". It's just what happens. Minding your own business is not good manners, it is frowned upon. Everyone is involved and no invitations are needed to your grief or your celebrations.

Things move quickly in GP, the villages are a slow beat. The only thing fast is the music.

seeing your siblings doing well is a top-tier feeling.

Come on, Nelson. Why can't I be a star? What does a star do? Nothing. Look at the camera, flash! Smile at the camera, flash! Look at everybody, big eyes! Say nothing. Stars don't do, stars just be 🥺🔥❤️.

One of the hardest thing about the waiting season is that you never know how close or how far your breakthrough is. All you can do is pray for the staying power.

bring back scholars and specialists having dedicated segments on news networks, comprehensively explaining developments in their field and having 20 minutes to educate the masses, fact-check, debunk and disprove misinformation.

Out of ten men, one makes a sexual joke at a woman, two laugh, three fake a chuckle to fit in, and four stay silent. None of them speak up. Later, nine of them still believe they're the "good guys." But from the woman's perspective, the laughter, the silence, the looking away, it all creates the same environment. So when women say"most men are the same," this is what they mean: not that every man harasses women, but that most men help protect the system that does.

My niece "say cheese Auntie"...I then realized she made a camera. She then told her mom to look into the sky...it's also a telescope. I've observed she's very creative. 3 cups on the handle of a dust shovel.

1. Our skeletons are wet.
2. your nose is ALWAYS in your line of sight, but your brain ignores it
3. When you receive a donated kidney, they don’t take out the bad one. They just add the good one in.
4. Your immune system doesn't know you have eyes. Otherwise, it would attack them and make you blind. injuring one eye can introduce eye bits to the bloodstream and basically give your immune system the knowledge of having eyes. then it might decide it really fucking hates that and attack your non-injured eye.

5. The quality of the male sperm is responsible for morning sickness, preeclampsia, baby’s gender and almost every single pregnancy related issue.
6. You breathe through one nostril at a time. Don’t believe me? Put your finger below your nose and try.
7. The brain itself has no nerve endings, so it can’t feel pain. That’s why patients can be wide awake during brain surgery and made to perform certain actions.
8. That ringing in silence isn’t silence
When everything is quiet and you hear a faint ringing?
That’s your brain listening to its own nervous system.
You are hearing yourself functioning.
9. You will never experience your own death.
You only experience approaching it… Then nothing.
Everyone else gets closure, stories, funerals, and memories.
You don’t.
You never know you’ve become a memory.
From your perspective, the story just stops mid-sentence.

Discipline is really the only thing you need to change your whole life. You master it in one area and it has a ripple effect on everything else.

Yes, we’re all going through stuff, but when a friend opens up, let the moment be about them. It’s not a comparison.

[The small chops lady 💗 @miss_she_du]

Guys!! My husband shared this with me and I was weak 🥹🥹🥹

It’s actually so true 🥲🥲🥲🥲

Please watch and learn!

The rumours are true, the earlier you start your day.. the more you get things done.

[Dr. Najat Abdul-Aziz @theafroaussie]

LOL, and there it is.

This is why over 114 million Americans have the literacy rate of seventh graders.

The first university in the world was created in Africa.

The world’s richest man - richer than a billionaire or trillionaire in today’s currency, was a Black man from West Africa.

Agricultural irrigation was invented by Africans.

Dr. Charles Drew, a Black surgeon, created Blood Banks, making it possible to store blood plasma for transfusion.

Black inventor Henry Thomas Samson Jr. Invented the Gamma ray-cell.

Charles Baker was a self-taught mechanical engineer who spent the majority of his childhood in slavery. He developed the first friction heater, which was patented in January 1903.

Ghanaian Chemical Engineer, Dr. Thomas O. Mensah is the first African to be inducted into the US National Academy of Inventors.

He has 14 patents. He has won the Turner's Trumpet Award for Fiber Optics Innovation, Percy L. Julian Award, Golden Torch Award, William Grimes Award, Eminent Engineers Award and Kwame Nkrumah African Genius Award.

The first calendar was created in 4230 BCE by Black Africans.

Black South African student, Nkosinathi Nkomo invented a water purification system to help out during the drought in Cape Town.

Africans also invented sewage systems, toilets, combs, paper, writing, plough, surgery, irrigation, keys, scissors, furniture, cement, wigs, toothpaste, toothbrushes, flutes, clarinet, oboe, trumpets, bakeries, sailing boots, and canals.

In 400 BC, women made African pottery that was used to smelt iron. Around 500 CE, ancient Africans made carbon steel, something that was not done by industrial England until the 19th century. The discovery and use of metal became one of the highest priorities for survival as well as many of the daily functions in ancient Africa.

Ancient Africans were making use of metals long before people in other parts of the world.

As far back as 2,500 years ago they were smelting iron and 2,000 years ago impressive metallurgists in Tanzania were found to craft exceptional metals.

Melanin deficient degenerates like you still have to be told how to wipe your asses and brush your teeth.
