If This Speaks in Any Direction

When we were closing up a Zoom, a wise, sage elder who I love and respect said,

“Can I say something as we finish?”

She then quoted Belva Davis, the first Black woman to become a news anchor on the West Coast.

“Don’t be afraid of the distance between between your dreams and reality.”

I sat with that quote, and I knew that multiple people on the screen were applying her words to situations in their lives. So today, I want to pass those words onto you if they resonate with anything in particular:

“Don’t be afraid of the distance between between your dreams and reality.”
