Today we will listen about dreams of the most important kind.
And, I will shed some tears.
And, then we will celebrate a life of
bravery
compassion
equity
empathy
kindness
fortitude.
With cake.
And, candles. And, maybe some dancing.
I will feel hopeful (about the hardest things to feel hopeful for) because the alternative doesn't work. Not now. It won't get us anywhere.
Then, I will pause to remember how far we have come and how much farther there is to go.
What will you do on this day? I'd love to know.
