Circa 2012 when I met a Legend.
They say don’t meet your heroes. But I really wish that I took more pictures with all the heroes I’ve met.
I read about his passing today and remembered how I’ve joked about how his speeches always rhymed and how it inspired and made me laugh a little.
His life, history and impact has really been one to aspire to. In the nation, world and in our own community he was a pillar of hope and fight.
I want to cherish our legends more.
I also wish I had a picture where I was looking better. But to say that I was in the same lifetime, space and had the privilege of getting a picture with Jesse Jackson is an honor that I’ll cherish.
