The Ancestors

Hear that? That whisper in your ear? Those are your ancestors.

Feel that? That is the courage of your ancestors growing in you!

Understand this or that? That is your ancestors giving you wisdom!

Taste that? That is the taste of victory your ancestors savor knowing of your existence.

See that? That is the vision from your ancestors of your past and your future.

Smell that? That is the African breeze your ancestors breathed.

Sense all of that? Those are the arms of your ancestors holding you, caressing you, soothing you, comforting you, supporting you, extolling you, fortifying you, teaching you...adoration and self-love.

Think that? Those are the memories of your ancestors guiding you.

Now, go forth and BE!

You have more than you will ever need for the journey ahead.

And now,

As you believe in angels,

you can believe in the ancestors who have paved your every

step.
