Mecca C Eaves-Glass

Tuesday morning I awakened at 6am. I began to take down my braided and twisted hair. I wanted my wavy puffy locs to be free for my first day of virtual teaching. As I began to take down my hair I noticed that the formation of my hair was not to my liking.

At the young age of 7 my grandmother Classie told me that I had a spiritual gift. She told me that I would be able to see, talk to, and hear from the ancestors that have gone on. She told me to not be afraid, only good spirits would come to me and to listen to what they were trying to convey.

During the hot and blistering summer of 2016 I embarked on a journey to act as principal for summer school to cover an assignment in my masters principal leadership program .

On one the luckiest days of the year was March 17, 2020 as I was whisked away from my job. We were told to stay home until further notice. Of course I was happy because I didn’t have to get dressed and I felt it was similar to paid time off. Well all money isn’t good money.
