    Moving forward to #abrandnewday ... one step at a Moving forward to #abrandnewday ... one step at a time. . I had a really hard conversation with one of my girlfriends yesterday. I reached out to her to let her know I was thinking of her with all that was going on. I was expecting the standard “I’m ok... hanging in there...taking it one day at a time” response. She surprised me by saying “I am exhausted. I am overwhelmed. I am sad, mad, and everything in between. And lastly, I know you love me, but I don’t want your pity.” Friends, when I tell you that I literally felt my breath go out of me- it really did. And it was hard. It was uncomfortable. But UNLIKE #georgefloyd I was able to take another breath. . I waited a bit and then asked “What do you need from me?” She replied back with some simple things I could do to assisting the climate change of this country. Support black-owned businesses, talk to my children about race and how it effects everyday life, and continue to speak up and for people of color who need to be heard. It wasn’t “I’m sorry” that she needed to hear it is “I will do things differently”. . What steps are you making today to ensure that you are supporting the ones you love in the way they need it?⬇️ . . . . . . #june2020 #mississippi #southernblogger #sayhername #breonnataylor #ahmaudarbery #blacklivesmatter #getuncomfortable #changestartswithme #jacksonms #madisonms

    My reality. Both kids and three dogs on one sofa. My reality. Both kids and three dogs on one sofa. We are all safe and cozy in our home in #mississippi . I’m scrolling social media and my kids are having their bedtime snacks watching a show on Netflix. I am in my bubble, my safe haven, my own little world. And as I am mindlessly occupied, another mother not too far away is on her knees praying to God that her babies are kept safe from the racist injustices that keep happening. . I have an incredible and diverse group of loved ones. We have hard and emotional conversations. I don’t pretend to fully understand what my friends and family of the black community are feeling while they watch tragedies like #ahmaudarbery and #georgefloyd happen. But I can say “I am here. I SEE you. I hear your cries for change. I love you. I don’t understand, but I want to try. I want to help, but I don’t know how or where to start. I hate your fear for your babies- because no mother should worry like this.” . My thoughts are so jumbled. I hope this makes sense and that by putting my tiny voice out in this big universe that it encourages discussion and opens the way to better days ahead. . . . . . . #may2020 #toughtimes #injustice #racism #southernblogger #iamjlj #jacksonms #madisonms #ridgelandms #heavyheart #itstartswithme #iamhere
