AUTHENTICITY & VULNERABILITY was the topic for today’s passionate MAN VILLAGE Men’s Support Groip session. We listened and learned from our sons today, and are better for it. Pictures say a thousand words. ❤️

FBF - 2023 Pets

I miss my Riley and Pearl. Temperamental as with most cats, Pearl cuddled whenever she was ready, which happened to be the times I needed it most. At times, she would sneak up behind me while I was laying on my chaise lounge, slap me in the back of the head, then run away. Riley, on the other hand, was always ready to lean on me and tussle. He was my right hand and was ready to rock and roll without notice. In all, both of their expressed loves were constants in my life that never fluctuated, and I miss them dearly. Rest well. ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾

H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y ❤️

Martia, you are Beautiful inside/out, and I appreciate the woman you’ve become. While this is my Birthday message to you, I want you to hear from me how grateful I am having you in my life. Last year presented many emotional challenges for all of us, but you particularly, as the caretaker of Mommy. As you are well aware, Mommy was/is my Queen and everything good. God blessed me to have a front row seat to your 24hr selfless care of her. Your provisions for her reminded me of the stories she told about our shared childhood. While my emotions cloud our childhood memories in this hour, the story of you, the caretaker, resonates. ❤️

After my birth, Mommy was deathly sick. She told me how you did everything within your capacity as a five year old child to support her by welcoming me as your own baby. You became my caretaker. The support you gave me then, forever cemented the unbreakable bond we share today. Just as your hands were there to carry me as a baby, I realize more how they were an extension of Mommy’s love. So, thanks for being you. Your love commitment to us has continued throughout her death. Even at her Homegoing service, we found our special and most precious moments of laughter while standing over her remains. Thanks for being that constant reminder that love never dies. ❤️

Martia, please know that this particular Birthday Anniversary that you celebrate means so much to me. Last year, your bornday anniversary was overshadowed by Mommy’s transition and your own time of mourning. So, know my hope is that you make this day special. I love you dearly, and wish you all the best. I will see you soon. ❤️

Today, I pause to wish my funny, smart, beautiful, caring, loving, and always supportive sister Jean Barbee-Wilson a Big Happy Bornday Anniversary. She’s lots of fun. Just look at the video. I was recording my brother at an event, and she consciously walked through the active frame. 😂😂😂😂 Jeannawillis, I love you Sis. All the best. ❤️🎊🎂🥂🍾🎉👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Congratulations Big Bill
❤️🎊🎂🥂🍾 ⭐️ 🎉👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Many of Bill Duke’s friends and family came out to celebrate his Star induction into the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Others sent video testimonials honoring their mentor and friend. Through many of the testimonials, the crowd laughed and broke out in cheer. While there, we chatted, laughed, shared personal accounts, and networked. With much cheer, we sang Happy Birthday, then embraced old and new faces in the crowd. It was such an honor just being here and sharing the love with Bill. I was humbled to be considered family. As the celebration continues, I had to take a well needed break and come back to my hotel to relax. I will rejoin them tonight for the third party. 😂😉❤️🎊🥂🍾🎉👌🏾

Congratulations Bill. ✊🏾

Mental Wellness Break

No matter your faith, God provides all of us opportunities to ground ourselves in the midst of storms. Photography, exercising, meditating, hiking, praying, and writing have been my outlets for adjusting my perspectives while knee deep in things I had little control over. So, do yourself a solid and treat yourself to a mental wellness break.Step outside your comfort zones and try something new. Breathe!

I will see you on the other side.

Mike
