For many weeks, my days have begun by putting on these blue earrings; a gift from a friend. I'm leaning into the strength of people who've gone before me; people who were calm, steady and grounded; the exact qualities this moment requires. As I slide the silver posts through one lobe, then the other, I can almost feel their breath as they whisper, You got this. Those who speak from beyond the grave know nothing of keeping social distance; they stand as close as we let them.Thursday, April 23, 2020
Blue earrings
For many weeks, my days have begun by putting on these blue earrings; a gift from a friend. I'm leaning into the strength of people who've gone before me; people who were calm, steady and grounded; the exact qualities this moment requires. As I slide the silver posts through one lobe, then the other, I can almost feel their breath as they whisper, You got this. Those who speak from beyond the grave know nothing of keeping social distance; they stand as close as we let them.
