SPEAKING OF BLACK MEN •
It’s this ones day of birth today. 
1/3 of my womb mates, my flesh, my blood, my brother. wrapgame 
I don’t need to express my heart for this man. One of my earliest best friends. I don’t exaggerate when I say he is a genius. His brilliant mind has amazed me since we were in diapers. To think on this day he celebrates 30 spins around the sun, I am elated and exhausted all at the same time. This time does not define your identity. This unrest is not a reflection of your fate. You are created by design for more than a hashtag and you know we’re praying heaven down to ensure your safety. bledjon510 this goes to you too. You two black men are the finest gems of my heart. I wear you on my chest like an ephod. .

JOSHUA 
Patient, kind, slow to speak, strong in mind, a wordsmith... yes it runs in the family. We are strong with our words and even though you are the quiet one, YOUR WORDS might be the loudest. .
.
THANK YOU for being who you are. I celebrate your gentle strength, calculated and compassionate. You are seen. You are worth it. You are celebrated. Shut up...get over it. You are loved. #loveblackmen #happybirthday #mybrotherskeeper #sistersofblackmen #mybrothers
