Keep Writing Baby!

Today, I have been enthralled by the numerous posts paying homage to the dynamic and phenomenal woman, Dr. Maya Angelou. Although many are relaying their personal expressions, the most captivating ones to me are those written by everyday people like me who encountered her by happenstance. My experience with Dr. Angelou occurred on June 29, 2013, and this is what I wrote (on Facebook) that describes my reaction: My cup runneth over! Today, I heard the legendary Ms. Maya Angelou...captivating, poetic, wise, and courageous. Then I was introduced to her. She looked me in my eyes, held my hand, and said, "Keep on writing, baby!" Instantly, my eyes were filled with tears, and I am inspired even more to do as she requested. #MayaAngelouhasspoken! Other posts that I've read share a commonality of genuine encounters too! Her spirit resonated and lifted you, and her energetic touch poured into your soul just like her poetry. In my mind, Dr. Angelou was the true measure of a woman! She used her personal plight and the injustices of the world to enrich, nourish, enlighten, educate, empower, and inspire. Although her actual presence will be missed on earth, her testament to purposeful living and her masterful words will live on. #KeepWritingBaby!
