under my bed.
Because the monsters
were inside my head.

for no monsters I see.
Because all this time
the monster has been me.”
Nikita Gill

“Ahem! Ahem!” As I recalled, Aunt Kathy loved Uncle Dan so much, she went grocery shopping during his funeral and failed to attend his burial as well. Apparently, Ham Hocks, Collard greens, Chitlin, Fatback, and Hog-Head cheesetook higher priority over his Last Rites. Then the reverend proceeded cautiously as he introduced my mom. “Let metell y’all about my Ms. Liza. Sister Kathy kept this one close.”
“Ahem! Ahem! Ar-choo! Ahem!”
Shockingly, there was a lightening blast that rocked the building once again while dimming the lights for more than 10seconds. The crowd turned restless, took a deep breath, and then allowed Pastor Keith to resume. “I’m gonna tell y’all, they were two kernels on a cob. When you saw Sister Kathy, you saw Sister Liza.
“Ahem! Ahem! Ahem!”
“The two of them raised those boys from seeds to bean stalks. We helped nourish them right here in Zion Gate Union. Now they’re just ripe for the harvest. I hope some of you ladies can take a

hint!” For a brief moment, modest laughter filled the church. Yet, it was needed because Pastor Keith had gone into uncharted waters. No one dared to challenge my mom. Yet, Pastor Keith was speaking glowingly about her. Only a fewwanted to see where the Reverend was going. But most didn’t care to re-open that door. Church members were so afraid of Mom, no one dared to call her by name. All parishioners would go mute and head the other way, or simply hit the exits just to avoid all encounters.”
Harold Phifer, My Bully, My Aunt, & Her Final Gift

Edie Littlefield Sundby
“I love to walk. Walking is a spiritual journey and a reflection of living. Each of us must determine which path to take and how far to walk; we must find our own way, what is right for one may not be for another. There is no single right way to deal with late stage cancer, to live life or approach death, or to walk an old mission trail.”
Edie Littlefield Sundby, The Mission Walker: I was given three months to live...

Ferdia Lennon, Glorious Exploits

“I want to write down everything I know about being afraid, but I'd probablg never have enough time to write anythign else. Afraid is a country where they issue us passports at birth and hope we never seek citizenship in any other country. The face of afraid keeps changing constantly, and I can count on that change. I need to travel light and fast, and there's a lot baggage I'm going to have to leave behind me. Jettison cargo.”
Audrey Lorde

“Never let fear hold You back when You act justly

We all want to protect a peaceful and prosperous life. When things are going well, we do our best to remain honest, keep our promises and resolve difficult situations in a dignified way. Many times we give in, look for a fair compromise and make concessions because we value peace more than conflict. Yet even patience has its limits. Just as countries have borders to protect their safety and dignity, we too must sometimes make clear how far we can go. Being fair does not mean that we must always be the losing party when others fail to keep their word and leave us at a disadvantage. Fear of consequences must never stop us when we know that we are acting justly. Our principles only have value when we continue to follow them, especially in moments when status, profit, power or temporary advantage try to tempt us away from the honest path. Whoever has rights also has duties, and no one stands above that. That is why it is important to stand up calmly, honestly and firmly for what is right. Society can only remain peaceful when every person knows their place, respects agreements and takes responsibility for their own actions. Then we can step outside without fear, without injustice and without unnecessary misery.
