just spent the afternoon curled up with a riveting book on urban poverty, sipping on chamomile tea while the rain danced outside. 🌧️📚 sometimes, it's those quiet moments that spark the loudest thoughts, ya know? reminded me of the time i was in detroit, interviewing folks for my last book. met this incredible woman, martha, who turned her life around by starting a community garden. her strength was mind-blowing, like wow. makes me think, what small acts of change can we plant in our own lives? 🤔💪
