Old habits die hard 🤠

[S. @ShaneaMichelle_]

I really wish me in 5 years could come and tell me it’s all going to work out and we’re going to be ok.

Every healthy habit becomes more difficult when you're sleep deprived.

Please go to bed.

Look what happens when mama actually gets a minute to rest!!

[S. @ShaneaMichelle_]

Forget the actual score - your girl (‘s baby) finally slept through the night!!!

Update. XEN has zero zen.

[S. @ShaneaMichelle_]

I’m just starting to feel like Xen isn’t going to be very zen-like and that scares me a lot.

The Lessons I Learned from My Dad

I am not the man my father is.
I am trying. Some days closer. Some days farther.
He never sat me down and explained these lessons. He lived them. I’m still learning them.

Show up.
The kitchen table. The hospital room. The funeral. The picket line. The call from the son who won’t answer.
Show up.
Most days that’s the whole job.
My whole life I watched him do it. Not for cameras. Not for headlines. Not because there was something in it for him. He showed up because someone needed him.

I learned that grief doesn’t make you special.
My father buried a wife and daughter. He buried a son. Yet he never treated grief as a claim on other people’s sympathy. Instead, it made him notice theirs.
A mother who lost a child. A father sitting beside a hospital bed. A kid scared about what comes next. A son who lost his mother, his sister, his brother.
He always noticed.

I learned that power is not the point.
The people who chase power eventually confuse the office with themselves.
My father never did.
Whether he was a county councilman, a senator, vice president, or president, he was the same man.
The title changed.
He didn’t.

I learned that family comes first.
The train from Wilmington wasn’t symbolism.
It was every night.
He read to us. Showed up to games. Sat through hospital rooms. Waited up for children who were lost.
And when the day came that the country and the family could not both have him at full strength, he chose family. He relinquished the last chapter of how he wanted to be remembered. And he never complained about it.

Most of all, I learned that love is not soft.
Love is discipline.
Love is showing up at one in the morning when nobody is watching.
Love is answering the phone.
Love is staying.
Love is getting back up after life knocks you down and doing it all again tomorrow.
That love saved my life.
I’ve failed at many of these lessons, sometimes in very public ways.
He loved me anyway.

That’s the last lesson.
I am not trying to become my father.
I am trying to carry what he gave me.
And if I can do that, even imperfectly, that will be enough.

Happy Father’s Day, Dad. I love you.

You MUST by all means develop a strong opinion of yourself so you don't end up internalizing the beliefs others have of you.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Michelle Obama: We simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent, to wring our hands in despair, or to wait for someone else to fix the problem. Hope is all we have, because hope is the essential spark that lights the fire of change. But hope is a choice. Whether or not we use our voices to speak up is a choice. Voting is a choice. Being a decent human being is a choice. Believing that we still hold the power to build a country that reflects us all is a choice.

What a game! Very stressed out!
Way to grind it, @spurs!!

[𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗺𝘆💗 @Urfv_shammy]

PLEASEEEE date a man who believes in romance and a provider mindset. Like holding doors open for you, buying you flowers, writing you love letters, courting you, treating you gently, planning surprises for you, and honouring your heart in every way he can... YOU DESERVE ALL THAT

@Favwontmiss The worst part of ADHD isn’t not knowing what to do. It’s knowing exactly what to do while feeling completely unable to start

[Fav ⛧ @Favwontmiss]

I just finished an intake session with a 34-year-old working mom with ADHD.

The way she described her 5:00 PM post-work crash explained executive dysfunction better than any medical journal.

Sometimes just sitting in the sun is enough for a good day. We overcomplicate joy.
