Hey dolls,

It’s my birthday today! I must say, I feel fantastic this year. It’s hard to fathom how time has flown by. It feels like I just blinked and now I’m already 24. To add to that, folks have started asking me about my plans for the future, which is quite amusing. To compound matters, I’m unsure of my own plans. However, I’ve come to realize that life moves at a rapid pace, and it’s important to cherish each moment as it comes. Cherish those who cherish you, and give your all to everything you do. Today, as I step into this new chapter of my life, I’d like to share a poem from my favorite author and an exceptional human being, Maya Angelou.

Lying, thinking
Last night
How to find my soul a home
Where water is not thirsty
And bread loaf is not stone
I came up with one thing
And I don’t believe I’m wrong
That nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

There are some millionaires
With money they can’t use
Their wives run round like banshees
Their children sing the blues
They’ve got expensive doctors
To cure their hearts of stone.
But nobody
No, nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Now if you listen closely
I’ll tell you what I know
Storm clouds are gathering
The wind is gonna blow
The race of man is suffering
And I can hear the moan,
‘Cause nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Thanks for another year dolls.

xoxo 💋 Jael
