Couple notes:

1.) ulay def should have told her about the baby BEFORE they started the walk, almost makes you wonder if he waited for the drama.....

She probably understood this though, I’m sure she was thinking about some shit while she was walking - like how excited she was to see him in the middle! That made me cry

2.) ulay made the right choice for him, so when they reconnected there was no hatred..if you really love someone so much - set them free, which is what she did when she said “I’ll go”, she made the choice easier for him. She was willing to go through that pain cause she knew it was more than just her feelings at bat

3.) Kim and Kanye performing together - MAJOR ask of Kim, especially after everything, it speaks to their relationship and what they had that she showed up.

The kids, the empire .....

Each of these situations every individual is being asked to “show up for more than their self” and “let go for more than their self”

Selflessness, the epitome
