This is Khemisha Brown. Khemisha is someone who I honestly wish I’d taken more advantage of time with this year. She is wise and kind, she is so highly spoken of in our community, and her laugh spreads joy wherever she goes. She also took the time to write for this site a second time and I am so thankful.
One thing I’m trying to learn and put into action is being present in the moment and being able to recognize when I’m too focused on the future or past. I am very goal oriented and it sometimes gets in the way of me taking in all the blessings and joy going on right now as I get distracted thinking about checking a box off my to-do list or a situation where I fell short before, all leading to me being stressed in the end. So this semester I am trying to take in moments for all that they are- cherishing moments of rest, truly listening when being with those I love, and learning as much as I can along the way!
