Dr. Martin Luther King once wrote, “What else can one do when he is alone in a narrow jail cell, other than write long letters, think long thoughts, and pray long prayers.” - Letters from Birmingham Jail

Think: what ifs, how might I’s, why’s, and
Hope: What do I have to long forward to? How might I take one step closer to that hope now?
