If you follow me on the social medias, you'll know I've been a little MIA lately due to some health issues. Word of advice: no matter how funny you think it is to hashtag #firstletmetakeaselfie from the hospital, maybe don't do it. I was completely overwhelmed (and flattered- don't get me wrong- hashtag blessed) by the influx of phone calls and texts. Thank you ALL for checking in on me, and I apologize for the garbled responses you might have gotten. Benadryl and painkillers are a challenge for even the most seasoned of iPhone pros.
In other news, I've loved all of the amazing tributes on Maya Angelou that I've seen since her passing last week. While I was working on the Oprah show, I had the opportunity to see her speak in person, and it was obviously an incredible experience. I've never been a huge fan of poetry, but she was just so dang wise. I doubt there is a single artist or musician who hasn't been inspired by her words in some way. This article from Slate about her effect on the world of hip-hop is absolutely worth a read. What are some of your favorite words of wisdom? Have a great week, all!
