JUST IN: Michelle Obama has been named one of USA TODAY’s “Women of the Year,” a recognition of women who have made a significant impact in their communities and across the country.
When told about the honor, Michelle Obama was asked if she had a guiding mantra. Her answer wasn’t surprising to the people who love her most:
“Barack and I really did use “going high” as a mantra when the critics were loudest,” she said. “For us, going high was a line in the sand, a decision point – a place to step back and decide who we wanted to be.
It’s not always easy to go high, of course. But unlike making the choice to take the low road, going high will never, ever diminish who you are.
It always helps us shine our brightest and lead lives with a little more dignity.”
Congratulations Michelle Obama! 💙

For some, this day represents
what was
what wasn’t
what almost was
what could have been
and what should have been.
For those who feel loss amplified on Mother’s Day, know that I’m holding you in my heart. May you find peace and sweetness in unexpected places.❤️

It’s time to put away the harsh rhetoric, lower the temperature, and listen to each other again.
To make progress, we must stop treating our opponents as our enemy.
We are not enemies. We are Americans.

We must also pray for the safety of our country. It is beyond time for our leaders to do what is necessary to enact laws that keep guns out of the hands of people wishing to do harm. This has to stop. #EnoughIsEnough #EndGunViolence

What truly makes our country great is its diversity. I’ve seen that beauty in so many ways over the years. Whether we are born here or seek refuge here, there’s a place for us all. We must remember it’s not my America or your America. It’s our America.
