Maya Angelou RIP

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

Very sad to hear of her death. I heard her on the radio last year and was captivated by her stories as well ass her writing.

An amazing writer, and an amazing woman.

My favourites by her are

"Still I rise"

And " phenomenal woman "

Both have very powerful words and messages .

She's succeeded in leaving the world a better place...and that's a great achievement by any standard..

Very sad to hear of her passing.

She truly altered my cynical approach to life and helped me become more compassionate towards, and understanding of, the others with which we share this planet.

i have just gone back and watched the special where maya angelou met dave chappelle... it is fantastic in what she is able to teach him...

she is one of those figures where I think we all wished she was our "grandmother" at times...

a true great and her wisdom will be missed
