Letter.

My friends, 

Inhale deep and full, exhale. Take steps, one at a time and without hesitation. Cry if you need to, laugh when you want to. Embrace something/someone solid with all of your self- don't loose the connection once you let go. Never loose the connection. Put one hand over your mouth, press the other against your stomach and scream. In public in private inside outside SCREAM. Scream for injustice, for confusion, for loss and for forgetting. Love people well. Give something away that you keep so well hidden inside- let them see the things that need to be seen. Learn to filter out the things that make you feel insignificant, embrace your gifts. Feel your heart beating and be thankful, look the eyes of your community and see something Divine. 

I will stand beside you, behind you. I will remind you of the depth and width and height of Love. Because you remind me so often. I may not be perfect, I may struggle with a lot of things but I am always aware of being deeply rooted in these connections with people like you, with something so much bigger than all of us.

I love you (I really do) and I hope I find new ways to remind you of this every day.

Love,

Jaime
