The Light We Carry Introduction:
In The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times, Michelle Obama has an honest dialogue with her readers as she faces her own vulnerabilities.
During the pandemic lockdown, she picked up knitting to keep her thoughts and hands moving forward quite like Madame Defarge in The Tale of Two Cities. Women have found great calm and comfort in this art form during stressful times, for centuries.
Michelle Obama then gives a list of tools that have been helpful to her as she navigated both the White House years and the post-White House years.
She has given herself permission to feel uncertain as most people do at varying points. That is when she relies on her closest friends when they have their Kitchen Table talks, or she exercises, walks, or talks things through with her husband and family.
She looks back over her life when she was often a minority or the only person of color in the room.
But her mother prepared her to think for herself and as a kindergartener, she set her own alarm clock and walked to school alone, a short distance away. She learned how to be independent, solve problems, and was allowed to voice her opinions at home. She was being prepped for her future role as First Lady of the United States.
The Light We Carry encourages its readers by giving them a host of antidotes to dealing with low self-esteem and shows readers how to survive and excel. The Light We Carry should be on every young professional’s bookshelf
No one can make you feel bad if you feel good about yourself:
The Light We Carry speaks to people who are struggling with an imbalanced and imperfect world. In the words of the former first lady, “No one can make you feel bad if you feel good about yourself.”
In light of people being bigly misogynistic and bigoted also dangerous to what the former first lady and barrack have been building these contentious past four years, I live in a constant state of disrepair, fear, contempt, self-loathing and penultimate cluelessness. The threads of freedom with unalienable rights embedded in American life, namely: Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness I feel that barrack made it feel to those disparaged people that it was more than liberty it was a science of freedom.
From the Petersonian view of self-development he encourages one to put their own house in order before criticizing the world, a reason why typing a review seems difficult.
But nonetheless what makes me trust in the work of our presiding officers of legislature, governors, federal workers, and things of that nature. Because it seems the work they’re doing seems relevant and they’re people too.
“Of measuring one’s soul by The tape of a world that looks on in contempt and pity”.
Spike lee and his klansman film opened my eyes when that undercover brother was about to do something a little dangerous. A guy who may just have to push the limits a little for a better future.
That’s what I think of “BAR” a guy willing to go that extra step to do the work to help people. I disagree that all white people are irredeemably racist.

Craig’s love of horror was funny to me and makes me think of that new zombie flick. He wouldn’t be scared of that at all. You know the one, with Adam Driver and rza and bill Murray. Then it reminded me of that Halloween-themed episode on code switch where they talk about many different aspects of horror. How to survive in a surreal landscape of horrors almost is what it feels like during these difficult times.
With the other trend, we might actually not be living in a real-life zombie apocalypse after all. Because that would be really scary. The fact that fear seems to encourage bigotry makes its way into the patterns of interactions among many people. That look of terror when the aliens show up is frustrating.
As American as apple pie and graceful enough to hug the queen. This is American literature that’s uplifting and in the end makes you want to fight for what you believe in.
