The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy tells us that the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything is 42. I have often theorized that Douglas Adams chose this number because of Jackie Robinson. Today was the 57th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have A Dream” speech. It is also the day that Chadwick Boseman, passed into ether to join the ancestors. Before he left he graced us with performances where he portrayed of some of the greatest Civil Rights legends, real and fictional. I personally did not know if his illness until this news, but now that I know I can see how his connection to the characters of King T’challa and Stormin Norman were so powerful - he was channeling experiences that were true, real, and authentic just like the real life characters of Thurgood Marshall and Jackie Robinson whom he also played. It is that role as Jackie Robinson that strikes me now. #42. Mr Boseman was 42 years young. I believe he dedicated his life to trying to teach us that Love is the Answer. Let us honor him and his memory as we honor the memories and principles of the icons he portrayed. #restinpower . . . . . #chadwickboseman #blackpanther #storminnorman #thurgoodmarshall #jackierobinson #civilrights #icons #legendsneverdie #ancestorrealm #knowpeacebrother #restinlight #restinpowerkingtchalla #wakandaforever https://www.instagram.com/p/CEdRrdgnq9GVGZXa-ivSnaPlFZf_kLtqS22C2k0/?igshid=1ozzvicbs8ab9

Mental illness is infectious. If those who protect and serve our communities are sick, how are the communities effected? Racism, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, depression, substance abuse, anxiety, and bipolar disorder are all mental health issues. . . . . #mentalhealthawareness #publicservice #healthcare #servicelivesmatter #communityovercompetition #lifeaid https://www.instagram.com/p/CECNlN3HlNh3YVQBJK6tRsp1qGaokpTmls6eXE0/?igshid=1dz70wko4popw

“Allah’s the Arabic term for God. Stand up for God, fight for God, work for God and do the right thing, and go the right way, things will end up in your corner.” “He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.” “A man who views the world the same at 50 as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.” “Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” - Muhammad Ali . . . “I believe that there will ultimately be a clash between the oppressed and those that do the oppressing. I believe that there will be a clash between those who want freedom, justice and equality for everyone and those who want to continue the systems of exploitation.” “Without education, you’re not going anywhere in this world.” “I for one believe that if you give people a thorough understanding of what confronts them and the basic causes that produce it, they’ll create their own program, and when the people create a program, you get action.” - Malcolm X . . . “Might act up, but I still can pass dowa I'm usin' new ways to try to reach these better days Instead of tryin' to take you under I just make you wonder I still fast, make salaat, and pay zakaat I didn't make Hajj yet, but that's my next project... I circle my foes, like tawaf around the kaba I used to live life, like there was no mañana Now I'm treatin' every breath, like it was your honor” - Malik B | : | : | : #eid #eidmubarak #blackmuslims #islam #allahuakbar #elderknowledge #wordsoffreedom #wordsofwisdom #wordsoffaith #blacklivesmatter #malcolmx #muhammadali #malikb #restinpower #giveuslight #showustheway #change #progress #equality #justice #peace https://www.instagram.com/p/CDTvfr5nN5qDjGarQJwO0yGa6_nA5zPn070we40/?igshid=1f9v3tcuot95u

I wasn't ready. I was like "oh, that's cute. She's gotta hobby. That's.... whoa. WAIT."
I should've known by the arm behind the back that she wasn't playing.
