Going Towards Heartbreak

heartbreaking bursts of laughter; last recording of Choi Mi-Sook, 55, before the end of her 3 year battle with cancer.

"I’ve been told I have a habit of hugging people like I'm holding on for life but when I clutch him to my chest, for once I am not scared somebody will let go."

We're all better than the worst things that we do, but we're all not as good as the best things that we do. Our lives are spent in the middle.

I am light. I am light. I am not the pieces of the brokenness inside. I am light.

Human dignity is the ability to give, but also receive love. The moment when you realize you love someone feels like having a wave wash over you.

At the end of the day heartbreak means wholeness, and letting yourself be whole with everything that moves you.

The streets - they sing to me. There is no magic unless you want to see it.

Love is something I'm capable of giving to everyone that I see, and Love -- Love never runs out.

Mentorship is just talking to someone and getting deep in their soul. You can change someone's path by just being there.

So when we look at this world and see how broken it is, we give you praise because we know this isn’t it, this isn’t the end of the story.

There are so many ways to be black, and they are all beautiful.

I'm not who I am in spite of heartbreak, but because of it.
