When you KNOW the impact and imprint you left on someone, there’s no need to defend yourself against fictitious claims. You let your love, dedication, loyalty, service, actions, and devotion speak for itself. Like it always has.
✨️Feelings aren’t always based on fact.
✨️You can’t alter reality to fit your narrative.
And those are the facts.

Healing is your responsibility.
Let it hurt, then let it heal you.
Don’t fear the fire, become it.
Don’t become like those who caused you pain.

When DeAndree was murdered in July of 2020, I felt immense and persistent survivor’s remorse. I felt helpless and powerless. Although we were separated at the time of his death, I felt I wasn’t whole without him.
While he was resting peacefully and still is, I had to continue living when I didn’t want to. When it ached the worst. When the pain was the most unbearable and unimaginable.
I am here to assure you that God is a comforter. I thank God for His mercy, love, strength, and support.
For my fellow grief warriors, I hear you. I see you. I am you.

“I was blinded by survivor’s remorse,
I was supposed to build.
…Still solid, still here.”

It’s not about the cards you are dealt, but how you play the hand. 🧡🤍
A convicted felon should NOT be able to run for President of the United States.
A sitting “President” who was impeached TWICE should not be eligible to run for President of the United States.
A person who lost an election fair and square, who incited displaced anger, which led to a violent insurrection, SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!
I said what I said.
Quote me correctly.
Councilwoman Gabriela Santiago-Romero, it was one of the highlights of my night meeting you! 🤍
As you could tell, I was so excited! No, seriously!!
Why the excitement? Because you are a true public servant. Simply put. From your Immigration Task Force to your Coffee, Council, & Conversation, to supporting the LGBTQIA+ community to demanding a ceasefire in Gaza.
It is apparent that you were created to serve people as a legislator. To bridge the gaps between government and community.
Trust, transparency, and service are the principles you campaigned and ran on. And ma’am, have you delivered on those promises!
This #WCW goes to you! You are small but mighty! I mean that as a term of endearment.
Thank you so much for your advocacy, leadership, and service to the city of Detroit.
Fight on!

Asia, my sister, my twin, my love,
You mean everything to me. ❤️
I thank God for reuniting us. Thank you for forgiving me. In high school, I didn’t know how to be a friend to you. I was lost. Trial and error, right? I’m ready now!
Thank you with everything in me for accepting me back into your life. Cheers to us rekindling our best friendship! 🫂
I love you deeply. 🤍
Sonique
P.s.: I love you Mikey. Happy Birthday! 🤍🕊🥳
Five years ago, I attempted suicide.
I am a suicide survivor.
Cheers to five years of healing, growth, resilience, and courage.

As a mental health advocate it is my duty to be transparent during my times of distress as well.
This morning, because of severe mental instability, I almost did a walk-in to the 707 Crisis Care Center. I was unstable, unable and overwhelmed emotionally.
But God!
My Mommy literally talked me off the ledge. She exhorted me and spoke the very life she gave me, back into me. She gave me hope. She summoned her strength to support me through my fragile moment.
I was blessed with the very best! I thank God for my mother’s strength, love and support. We all paused this past Sunday to celebrate Mother’s Day but please never forget that a mother’s job is 365 days. Where they get no French benefits, vacation days or time off.
Mommy, with everything in me, thank you. 🤍
For anyone experiencing a mental health crisis, the 707 Crisis Care Center is here to assist. Located at:
707 W. Milwaukee Ave
Detroit, MI 48202-2943
There is hope. There is help. You are not alone.
