Overall, I think we all need a little more authenticity, vulnerability, and humanity. More connection and honesty. It feels like that world is being built, and the more we share ourselves with those around us and embrace the messiness of being a human on this planet will make that authentic world a reality. I am tired of living in a world that is fake and judgmental. It's too hard to keep up with a facade. My mask slipped a long time ago, and I am grateful to see other people

In spite of the pain and tears, there has been joy and humor and happiness, and I want to focus today on the things that make me unbelievably happy.

April is a weird time for me. I love that it's spring and the weather steadily improves. I love that I can go on walks and enjoy the sunshine. I love that things feel bright and exciting. However, the spring also holds a lot of bad memories for me.
