We all laugh, and I go home thinking, “Age ain’t nothin’ but a number.” But age is another thing, too. It is wisdom, if one has lived one’s life properly. It is experience and knowledge. And it is getting to know all the ways the world turns, so that if you can’t turn the world the way you want, you can at least get out of the way, so you won’t get run over. (201) – It is strange what time can do: As the years grow old big things seem small and horrible things seem less eveil (206)- Miriam Makeba

Black Pearls: Daily Meditations, Affirmations, and Inspirations for African Americans (1993 nonfiction 366 pages) by Eric V. Copage . This is a wonderful daily devotional book. Each day’s entry ranges from African proverbs, quotes, and advice to life’s wisdom on topics such as: Love, Anger, Pride, Dieting, Stress, Stereotypes, Power, and Success just to name a few, from hundreds of diverse and accomplished people of African descent. These are followed by a thought-provoking story and end with a five-minute exercise to boost the readers’ spirits and encourage them achieve their dreams. The entries can be read daily, or collectively by week or month. I would recommend this book as it is inspirational, encouraging, and healing. I also think it would make a wonderful stocking stuffer, or a great gift for self if you’re looking to become more in tune with self as we move into 2025.
