On the Passing of Poet and Leader Maya Angelou Today

"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
 

― Maya Angelou. 

Ms. Angelou, you were a force for justice, wisdom, clarity, and depth in the world. Today, you have passed away, and I honor you. We honor you. What a loss, but you left a magnificent legacy for others.  Peace everyone.   

In life, I would like to strive to be someone who takes the time to help people feel heard, feel loved, feel edified, and feel cherished.  We can all learn volumes from Maya Angelou.
