We went to bed, woke up this morning & all clocked in to continue dragging Keke Palmer’s babysitter? It’s the dedication for me..

I love Jesus, Black People, Cussing & Carrying On.

How do you find joy in a hopeless world?
Spend time around people you love.
Think about good things.
Learn a new skill.
Praise God for the big and small wins. 💡

Nothing is a waste of time. The more we merge our identities, the more balanced we become with our responsibilities.

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

We have so much more power than we realize. People hold the keys to policy changes that can end violence. Some have enough dollars to end world hunger. Others influence the culture to move in whichever direction they decide. Imagine if we all used our power for God’s purposes.

I'm a full-time thinker, writer, and content creator. And regardless of whether or not I have a good or bad employer or a good or bad day, I can rest in that blessing & give my best in appreciation. Doing what I do is a privilege, & I owe it to God to walk and work in gratitude.

It’s tough when you’re young, gifted, and Black in what you perceive as a mediocre, White world where you’re institutionalized to stifle and silence your creativity.

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

My parents teach me so much about fight and forgiveness. I get a front-row seat to the robust, juxtaposing characteristics that melt and give way into the makings of me, and I get to use that wisdom to make decisions in real time about how I want to move forward.

Sometimes when we fuck up seemingly irretrievably, the best thing we can do is go home and begin again refreshed with discipline from lessons learned.

Relate & Rebel! The system is rigged for us all, and shit needs to change.

When did murder stop being a crime?

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

If sensible people only need guns to protect themselves from assholes with guns, we should eliminate guns altogether.

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

Use your voice for stuff that matters.

Black people will break under the pressure unless we break free from the prison of public perception.

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

Celebrating diversity doesn't require the perpetuation of othering, and pride doesn't have to mean prejudice.

@prettyjoyful08 What? You don't like it????

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

People don't know what you've got going on until you tell them, so the next phase of your business plan will require you to start talking your sh*t. #Respectfully

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

You know you're on your own when the response to school shootings by republicans is to homeschool your child instead of getting rid of the guns or paying for national guard security.

[RAVEN ARIANA @msravenariana]

Life feels so much freer when you realize most things don’t have sh*t to do with you.
