Life is tough. You are tougher! Throughout our lives we experience loss, hardship and pain. It takes mental and physical resilience to make it through. You can survive, thrive, and make a difference in the world if you can meet people where they're at (being kind and a good listener can help as well!). Do this for the ones we've lost who were friends, or family. We can honor them and what they stood for; we can improve ourselves and our world. If we let the chatter divide us it will (and it has). But if we put our swords down and choose to respectfully disagree we discover our similarities! By allowing ourselves to find the good in people, before labeling them as outside of our “tribe,” we see that we’re all looking for pretty much the same thing; Belonging. Friendship. Love.
