Love Is The Highest

When growing in love, I have been learning to yield more to the Universe. Allowing the Creator to lead me. I have been learning to forgive quickly because holding grudges interferes with the work I am called to do. I have been surrendering + allowing because love needs room to grow + expand. Especially this love. This love is being cultivated with every exchange, every argument, every disagreement, every misunderstanding, every apology, every intimate moment that reminds us that we are changing an old narrative. A narrative that would like to prove that black love doesn’t exist + if it does, it resides only in movies. So I let love rule!
.
I am learning that love is a mirror + to clearly see yourself you must die daily to your old self. I didn’t know how to die in my last marriage. I resurrected with every moment because what do you do when are young + driven by ego…you argue. You debate just because it Tuesday only to realize that the same tree you dig up; you will ultimately have to plant an even better one. I now realize that every word doesn’t need to be spoken + sometimes you have to just let love rule. Rule in your heart + in your mind. Let love rule in your spirit + in your steps. In order to succeed love has to lead the way.

The person that is accustomed to living life from one perspective will not be able to make a relationship work. My wife + I recognize that we are more than just spouses rather we are friends + family that extend beyond every single thing that tried to separate US. We are more than the fact that we were single mothers. We are more than the fact that we should have never been with men. We are more than the fact that we should have built a life together sooner. We are more than our trauma + the fact that we don’t know many family members succeeding in love; however we remain more.

We are dedicated to thriving + loving each other to allow others to see that your inner work is the only thing that will keep you in love + “in” love. .

Cheers to us for making it amongst life, children + sometimes our own will.
