Learning Happens

“When you’ve worked hard, and done well, and walked through that doorway of opportunity, you do not slam it shut behind you. You reach back, and you give other folks the same chances that helped you succeed.” – Michelle Obama

Tired of trying to cram her sparkly star-shaped self into society’s beige square holes,
she chose to embrace her ridiculous awesomeness and shine like the freaking supernova she was meant to be.

“The very act of trying to look ahead to discern possibilities and offer warnings is an act of hope.”
― Octavia Butler
