What Maya Is Teaching Me

For maybe only 5 minutes each night, I take in Maya Angelou's words and wisdom as I read her essays that touch the heart and soul and challenge your thinking.

Maya reminds me that...
  • The world needs me, and I need the world.
  • There are subtle ways to communicate and connect.
  • We should always question, reassess and maybe question again. Engage in continuous, dynamic conversation with yourself and all around you.
  • You can make your own rainbows.
  • I am worthy to be heard.
  • Walk hand in hand with peace through your day.
I didn't have any particular passages from Maya in mind when I wrote this list. These are just some thoughts that have been dancing around in my head since I started reading Maya's wonderful essays.

I highly recommend adding a "touch of Maya" to your day. She knows how to reach "you."
