“My alone feels so good, I'll only have you if you're sweeter than my solitude.” ― Warsan Shire #napomo
What is something you have been waiting to do? What is keeping you from taking that next step? Why not make today the day you do something about it? What is one step that you can take today, big or small to move you closer to that goal? Now that you can see it...take a leap!

But I also want to be intentional about healing and moving forward. Yo, it's my last year in my 20's. I want to end this decade with a bang not with a whimper.

“How do you express love?” English: I love you, love ya, ily, ❤️. Spanish: Te amo con toda mi alma, te quiero, me encantas, eres mi tesoro, mi platanito maduro, la luz de mi vida oscura, soy como un tamale envuelto en tu amor.

This is a horrific example of how mass incarceration is a moral scourge on American society & should be addressed immediately. BX organizers are holding watch shifts outside the facility. TY @NydiaVelazquez for being responsive to ALL your constituents, incl this emergency.
I am outside of the Metropolitan Detention Center where prisoners are without heat. The banging noise is them protesting for all of us to hear. They are without heat for days. This is in BROOKLYN.
