Something I've been thinking about.

A few weeks ago, I went to Dallas for the first time ever. We learned about this system
called the New Jim Crow, and we dedicated our time to figuring out different ways, and methods to put a stop to mass incarceration. One of the greatest things I've ever been a part of. It's not often you get to be in a room with people who possess so much intellectual wealth. Students, and Adults alike.
It was overwhelming at times, but everyone was so nice and understanding. I was already questioning certain things quietly. Well that weekend, may have just given me some volume.

My Four Followers

I'm one of those followers. I follow myself..is that weird. It's cool. I have a few things I want to talk about today. It's been a rough month so far. I've lost an uncle, two classmates, and a cousin. three within the past week. so it's been a trying time. It's weird to think about it. These are people just like me, that I'll never see again in my life, but if I want to go a little deeper. I think about does life really end in death. Of course we have the whole idea of heaven, and hell. but I wonder if, this is just one plane in life, one level we finish, then move on to the next. I'll never be able to answer that question on here..and I'm not trying to. I am thankful that I am still here, and I'm thankful that whoever is reading this post, is reading this post.
Well..turns out that's all I want to talk about right now. That's enough. Talk to you guys later.. Just remember though. When we're down..we gotta stay up. It makes sense. Just think about it.
