Shakita Thomas, Miramar Resident

“My family is my biggest joy. Family will always stick by you even if you’re not blood, and if they don’t, then they’re not family. My greatest fear is being unstable because most of the time it’s out of your control and it will affect your family. If I could change something about myself, it would be my procrastination. Apparently it bothers my kids too much, and I don’t get anything done until the last second. I hate for my kids to have to see the unfairness that always seems to revolve around skin color. So, if I could change one thing about the world it would be that.”
