“Women didn’t get to be bad boys.”
Tia Williams, Seven Days in June

“When you preserve skies,
you preserve lands.
When you preserve lands,
you preserve trees.
When you preserve trees,
you preserve forests.
When you preserve forests,
you preserve animals.
When you preserve animals,
you preserve people.

When you preserve streams,
you preserve rivers.
When you preserve rivers,
you preserve lakes.
When you preserve lakes,
you preserve seas.
When you preserve seas,
you preserve oceans.
When you preserve oceans,
you preserve the world.”
Matshona Dhliwayo

“Truth is what you see. Opinions are what you hear. Facts are what you know. Reality is what you experience.”

“Excellence is a legacy. It’s a plan that you work on every day. Perseverance… or grit, is what you embody for the long haul.”
