- 11:30Speaker 1: We're gonna read a passage from one of our books
- 11:33Speaker 1: and we're gonna discuss it and its inspiration. So so

- 12:10Speaker 1: I celebrated my fiftieth birthday one month before I celebrate
- 12:15Speaker 1: eleven years of being a semester violence survivor. So I'm
- 12:19Speaker 1: celebrating a lot of stuff and I shared inside of
- 12:23Speaker 1: this book. Inside of this poetry book, I wrote poems
- 12:29Speaker 1: centered around my domestic violence journey. So I wrote eleven
- 12:36Speaker 1: poems inside of this book, and it's eleven poems to
- 12:40Speaker 1: celebrate eleven years of being a survivor of domestic violence.
- 12:46Speaker 1: And then there's twenty other amazing poets that's featured inside
- 12:50Speaker 1: of this book alongside of me. I'm gonna share one
- 12:55Speaker 1: of the poems, and I'm also gonna share the four

- 13:14Speaker 1: the dedication to this book, it says to my dear sister,
- 13:18Speaker 1: Carolyn Annette Martin, my second mom and beloved big sister,
- 13:22Speaker 1: this is for you. You have been a constant source of
- 13:25Speaker 1: love and support, always looking out for your little brother.

- 13:33Speaker 1: have to, you chose to be there for us, and
- 13:36Speaker 1: for that I am eternal grateful in memory of our

- 13:45Speaker 1: who is gone but never forgotten. I cherish the bund
- 13:48Speaker 1: we shared. If I could give you the world, I would,
- 13:52Speaker 1: but since I can't, I want the world to know
- 13:55Speaker 1: what you mean to me. Over the past fifty years,
- 13:58Speaker 1: you have been unwaved, a unwavering pillar, the one who
- 14:02Speaker 1: believed in me when no one else did. You never
- 14:05Speaker 1: judged me for my mistakes and said you wish me
- 14:08Speaker 1: well and kept me in your prayers. I am thankful
- 14:11Speaker 1: to God for blessing me with the privilege of being
- 14:15Speaker 1: your little sister, Annact. Thank you for always being in me,
- 14:19Speaker 1: for always believing in me. I hope I have made
- 14:22Speaker 1: you proud this far. Your love and guidance have been
- 14:26Speaker 1: un invaluable, and I am truly blessed to have you
- 14:31Speaker 1: in my life. This dedication is just a small token
- 14:35Speaker 1: of my appreciation for everything that you have done and
- 14:38Speaker 1: continue to do. To my beloved nieces and nephews, this
- 14:42Speaker 1: is it is because of you that I pursue my
- 14:47Speaker 1: passion with such dedication. You inspire me every day to
- 14:51Speaker 1: strive to greatness and to be the best version of myself.
- 14:55Speaker 1: Never let your fire go out. Hold on to your
- 14:58Speaker 1: dreams and know that if Auntie has if Auntie has
- 15:03Speaker 1: done it, you can too. Your potential is limitless. I
- 15:07Speaker 1: believe in each of you wholeheartedly. Keep pushing forward and
- 15:11Speaker 1: know that I am always cheering you on. And just
- 15:15Speaker 1: as I said that to my nieces and nephew, I
- 15:17Speaker 1: said to each and every one of you, guys, trust
- 15:20Speaker 1: and believe in that that has been placed in you.
- 15:23Speaker 1: And to my sister, I love you, I love you,
- 15:26Speaker 1: I love you, and thank you for always believing in me.
- 15:29Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you. So my poem that
- 15:40Speaker 1: I'm going to share with you guys today that was
- 15:44Speaker 1: laid on my spirits, and it was, and I did
- 15:50Speaker 1: quite a few. I did eleven. So the one that
- 15:52Speaker 1: was actually laid in my spirit to share with you
- 15:54Speaker 1: guys today, I'm actually gonna share two. And it is
- 15:59Speaker 1: the legacy of life and the journey forward. In every life,
- 16:06Speaker 1: in every life she gently touched, a legacy of love
- 16:10Speaker 1: is clutched, her wisdom deep as ancient sees. It's whispered
- 16:14Speaker 1: through rustling leaves, from pain to joy. Her journey's flight,
- 16:20Speaker 1: transforming the dark, brings forth delight. With every step her
- 16:24Speaker 1: path refines, and Angela a beacon shines, and that's that peace.
- 16:30Speaker 1: And that's titled the Legacy of Lights. The next one
- 16:35Speaker 1: is called the Journey Forward, the Journey Forward, and it
- 16:39Speaker 1: is in fifty years her strength nights with dreams for
- 16:44Speaker 1: fill and new delights, eleven years from shadows free. Her
- 16:48Speaker 1: voyage is a symphony for every heart. She lives in flight,
- 16:53Speaker 1: a future board and scoward bright Queen Angela a life
- 16:57Speaker 1: of grace in her journey, hope its place, and that's
- 17:01Speaker 1: that piece. So those are a couple of pieces that
- 17:08Speaker 1: I personally have found. These These are pieces that I
- 17:14Speaker 1: wrote in my book, and this is one book that
- 17:16Speaker 1: have inspired me. So these things are very fascionate. I'm
- 17:20Speaker 1: grateful to have the opportunity to be able to share.
- 17:24Speaker 1: You know, a lot of us we have things that
- 17:28Speaker 1: you know God has done for us and things that
- 17:30Speaker 1: you know we've overcome, but we don't share them. We
- 17:33Speaker 1: don't tell anybody about them. We sit on them and
- 17:36Speaker 1: we hold them in when He allows us to get
- 17:39Speaker 1: through these things so that we can share them with
- 17:41Speaker 1: other people, so that we can bring him glory, so
- 17:43Speaker 1: that we can edify his name, so that other people
- 17:46Speaker 1: can see that, you know, see his power and see
- 17:49Speaker 1: what he's doing. So I want to encourage someone on
- 17:52Speaker 1: today that may be listening, that may be going through
- 17:55Speaker 1: know that you're not going through a loan, that you're
- 17:58Speaker 1: not on this journey by yourself, that they're other individuals
- 18:00Speaker 1: that are going through stuff too. But just as you
- 18:03Speaker 1: come through, you come to it, He's gonna make sure
- 18:06Speaker 1: that you get through it because he will never bring
- 18:08Speaker 1: you through something that he will never see you through.
- 18:10Speaker 1: If he bring you to it, he's gonna see you
- 18:12Speaker 1: through it. So know that, and I thank you. I
- 18:15Speaker 1: thank you guys for I thank you for your gifts,
- 18:18Speaker 1: all those that are gifted, thank you, thank you, thank you.
- 18:20Speaker 1: I appreciate you. I thank you, I thank you, I
- 18:22Speaker 1: thank you, I thank you, I thank you, And everyone
- 18:25Speaker 1: that stopped by. I hope that there's something that you
- 18:29Speaker 1: are able to take away and impart into yourself and
- 18:33Speaker 1: maybe share it with someone else. You know, that's what
- 18:35Speaker 1: we're supposed to be. We're supposed to be, you know,
- 18:38Speaker 1: knowledge takers and wisdom takers, and we're supposed to take
- 18:41Speaker 1: things and we're supposed to share them. We're supposed to
- 18:44Speaker 1: take these nuggets and we're supposed to share these nuggets out.
- 18:46Speaker 1: We're not supposed to hold these things in when we
- 18:48Speaker 1: come into the knowledge. Now, we're supposed to share these
- 18:51Speaker 1: things out. Like some of us, we have so much
- 18:54Speaker 1: resources and so much knowledge within us when we're just
- 18:57Speaker 1: sitting on it, just letting it just go to the wayside, y'all,
- 19:00Speaker 1: don't let that stuff end up in that crate and
- 19:03Speaker 1: doing nobody no good when it could have been a
- 19:05Speaker 1: blessing to somebody. It could have helped somebody come out
- 19:08Speaker 1: of something that they was going through. So I want
- 19:10Speaker 1: to challenge you on today if you have a story,
- 19:13Speaker 1: if you have a story of survivor, if you are
- 19:16Speaker 1: a survivor, if you have survived un aliven, if you
- 19:20Speaker 1: have survived domess of violence, if you have overcome trauma,
- 19:25Speaker 1: if you have survived I want you to share with
- 19:28Speaker 1: me in one of my anthologies that show that you
- 19:31Speaker 1: give you an opportunity to share your voice, That give
- 19:34Speaker 1: you an opportunity to speak to the nations, that give
- 19:37Speaker 1: you an opportunity to speak to people that you may
- 19:40Speaker 1: normally never come in contact with. It gives you an
- 19:43Speaker 1: opportunity to express It gives you an opportunity to leave
- 19:47Speaker 1: a legacy. Because I'm definitely leaving a legacy. I am
- 19:51Speaker 1: leaving a legacy because there are a lot of people
- 19:54Speaker 1: that did not know me ten years ago. The amount
- 19:57Speaker 1: of people that I lives that I have a pat
- 20:00Speaker 1: and the lives that have impacted my life, it cannot
- 20:06Speaker 1: be replaced and I won't replace it. But I'm gonna
- 20:09Speaker 1: leave a legacy. I'm gonna leave the blueprint. I'm gonna
- 20:12Speaker 1: leave evidence so that people see, so that people can
- 20:15Speaker 1: see what I overcame, so that people can see this
- 20:18Speaker 1: journey so that they can see that it is possible.
- 20:21Speaker 1: And that's what I want you to do too. So
- 20:23Speaker 1: if you're listening, if you are an author and you
- 20:26Speaker 1: need an author family, come on over here to the
