Love this, Tikeetha! Self care is so important. I hate to sound like George Benson and Whitney Houston, but learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all.

Yes! My best friend and I have been following recent findings on black women and our high mortality rates.
All things being equal ( education, socioeconomic class, health and past medical history) we still tend to die after an illness that we really should be able to survive. They have traced it back to constant stress —it’s wearing our genes down to pieces. Hence, the importance of your post.

Yes, it is. I’m trying my best to remember that and not get stressed. My ex is worrying the hell out of me and I’m exhausted.
