Dear black American fam, what are traditions you practice for Kwanzaa? I’m wanting to incorporate it into my festivities this year (s/o to the Carmicheal family for teaching us about Kwanzaa in the 2000s

The semester is ending, I’m moving countries, seeing my fam for Xmas…

your girls not depressy anymore

2/ in the evenings, I make notes of how I’ve taken care of myself that day and what I intend to do tomorrow (working on being gentle with myself as to whether I complete all actions or not) - i almost always mention something on how I will feed myself bcz… well, your girl is trying 🥴

Guys talk to me about your rituals, what’s rituals you have in your lives, in your days, in your weeks, in your mornings etc. I read this book ‘The Spirit of Intimacy’ and the crux of it is the importance of ritual

Idk who needs to hear this but…
