"You see, I think it pisses God off if you walk past the color purple and not notice it."
"You saying God wants to be loved like it say in the Bible?"
"Oh, everything and everybody wants to be loved. Especially God. That's why God be in everything. And see, when you love what God has made, you is loving God and God is loving you."

Fr, especially seeing threads online and people reveal the huge age gaps between their grandparents 😳 my heart goes out to so many people’s grandmothers
So many people’s grandmothers were children while their grandfathers were grown ass men 🤢
Also some of their grandmothers were physically abused, being cheated on or just full on miserable and didn’t have much courage to just up and leave because back then because women were very limited and many couldn’t just walk out the door like they can now
“The Color Purple” perfectly narrates these stories and it sucks that it happened on a regular back then
