The clock is broken.
“Are we all insane?” Me Too!
“Where will my life be?”
We all have everything in common.
Both angelic and devilish traits.
“But will you be the fish, or the bait?”
“Have you pondered on the thought where life will take you?”
“Will there be anything passionate that you would do?”
Life is crazy because it waits for no one. And it portrays any illness, or disorder as crazy or inclusive.
“Life is insane, right?”
But you just have to learn to bite back.
And yes there are a lot of things that you might think that you lack, but it’s just all in your head.
“That’s insane, right?”
Don’t let the negative strings be attached to you any longer. Let’s break the insane strings together!

Why Black History Matters in America?
The United States of America is celebrating their 250th anniversary in 2026. I'm proud to be an American and as someone who was born here, I wouldn't imagine myself living anywhere else. This is a country where opportunities are possible. Where anyone can be successful in anything they desire to do. Equality, community, and togetherness are the backbones of what America is and should be about. However, we have an administration who wants to erase and disregard those who have made positive, meaningful impacts in our country, specifically Black figures, such as Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks, and Maya Angelou. President Trump and his administration have been constantly complaining and fighting against what they call the "Woke agenda". They use this excuse as a distraction from other issues they refuse to address, such as the high cost of living, climate change, and inflation. That equality is dividing America, when in reality, it's bringing us together. Being woke is not tied to a specific political party. No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, you can still care about other people and their plights. Compassion and empathy for others isn't tied to a political party, either. We were taught as children to treat others the way we want to be treated and not judge others because they're different from us. Caring about others isn't a personal attack on your beliefs. It doesn't make you any less of a person. People who are easily offended over African American figures, past or present, or anything related to it, are grasping at straws. Current and future generations need to know who people like Harriet Tubman and Shirley Chisholm were, especially in the classroom. Black History is part of American History. It should be recognized, not hidden or forgotten. Besides, you can't shield children from everything, just because your feelings are easily hurt.
