If you’re not feeling festive this fourth...
If you’re feeling excluded
If you’re feeling unsafe
If you’re feeling conflicted
If you’re feeling confused
If you are angry, saddened, mad
If you are missing a loved one
If you’re awaiting a baby
If you’re up all night praying the fireworks don’t keep your little one awake
If you are sitting on the porch longing for a positive pregnancy test
If you’re sighing with relief that the baby days are over
If you’re counting the days until family is out of town again
If you’re sitting and breathing in this stillness in life
Remember...
There cannot be darkness without light
The fireworks shine more brighter in the darkest sky
Emotions mean you are alive and present and care
Everything may seem bleak
Everything may seem stable and secure
Everything may seem hopeless
Everything may seem hopeful
What matters is that we keep talking
Keep loving
Hold those dear close
Love unconditionally
Ask questions
Accept
Challenge
And make that ability to do so
Accessible for all that call the United States of America
