last night we celebrated five years of #millionlittlethingsabc and our heartbreakingly beautiful series finale. ♥️ on the panel last night i was asked what the legacy of our show is. i mentioned iterations of things i’ve said before and feel wholeheartedly. that our shows reveals and looks at the messy bits of being human. and by doing so we fall into deeper intimacy and acceptance of our shared humanity. of our own. and as a result the invitation is that we love ourselves more. accept others more. connect. and of course, laugh. laugh at ourselves and each other because we gotta..find/create the joy. ♥️ but i also want to say that for everyone who worked on the show, from main cast and crew, crew day players, guest stars and co stars, studio&network execs…i mean everyone responsible for making this show a success, the legacy is the culture we created. particularly on set. we created a family. one of integrity and respect. a hell of a lot of laughter. support. and just good ol plain ol decent and kind human connection. i thank you all from the bottom of my heart. alla ya’s. @heydjnash @the.real.joannakerns @terrencecoli @kaplanaaron @millionlittlethingsabc @abcnetwork

my god woman. your talent is beyond. working with you was an incredible privilege. no one has made me laugh or cry harder!! let’s do more please. thank you for telling regina’s story with me @romyrosemont you did so with such humility, grace, truth and compassion. 💛 rarely do bi racial, particularly black and white american experiences get reflected on tv. growing up i NEVER saw anything close to my life as a bi racial kid. regina’s story with her mother was a necessary one to portray on network tv. and i’m so grateful to you @heydjnash and our awesome writers for asking me, before we started the pilot who i wanted regina to be. african american with two african american parents or bi racial, like me. i assumed she’d be african american. but given that opportunity i knew we had to tell a biracial story. thank you ♥️♥️ tune in for our series finale tonight. 10/9c 🦋⭐️
this wednesday our series finale, written by the one and only @jamesroday and @heydjnash, is a beautiful one. join us in saying goodbye. but you can also just rewatch all 5 season on @hulu. so is it really goodbye? see you soon #millionaires 🙌🏽♥️

mornings at blackwater • for years, every morning, i drank from the blackwater pond. it was flavored with oak leaves, and also, no doubt, the feet of ducks. and always it assuaged me from the dry bowl of the very far past. what i want to say is that the past is the past, and the present is what your life is, and you are capable of choosing what that will be, darling citizen. so come to the pond, or the river of your imagination, or the harbor of your longing and put your lips to the world. and live your life. -mary oliver

“the hard season will split you through. do not worry. you will bleed water. do not worry. this is grief. your face will fall out and down your skin and there will be scorching. but do not worry. keep speaking the years from their hiding places. keep coughing up smoke from all the deaths you have died. keep the rage tender. because the soft season will come. it will come. loud. ready. gulping. both hands in your chest. up all night. up all of the nights. to drink all damage into love. “ -nayyriah waheed.

#1corinthians13 may i not demand my own way. speaking of demanding my own way… thinking of all the ways my need to control is and has been a gift. it’s been my protector. a function of discernment, discipline. it informs my leadership and the ways i guide. keeps a clean house. and a somewhat organized closet. i’d say it’s contributed to my success. i am also painfully and, at the moment, sharply aware of all the pernicious and sneaky methods control employs to hide in the crevices of my intellect. and within the hyper drive of my “emotional maturity”, my hard earned and innate wisdom. (i use quotes because sometimes i have weaponized it). i’m discovering how control lays in waiting outside yet ever so close to the gates of my heart perched as the vigilant watchful hawk. i’d even say this companion of mine is a shape shifter. disguises herself as intuition, when really at times, she just has an inflated since of her role in my life. in essence fear and control, two sides of the same coin. so many goals. desires. plans. and the ideas of how i think they should unfold….are just ideas. plans. butting up against this need to control. and it’s fucking terrifying. to let go. to not know. to give up control. but the best most delightful most healing most enriching and expansive experiences in my life always have existed outside of my best laid plans. plot twists. hmmm. my prayer: may i get out of my own way. with grace, may i surrender my will. may i be open to life surprising me, delighting me beyond any idea or plan i think i can create on my own.
3 years ago this time. happy memories spending time with my favorite creatures on the planet, elephants and dogs. @elephantnaturepark in thailand. check ‘em out and see how you can help support their work saving lives of many animals and rescuing elephants from torture and slave labor. the work they do is incredible.
