hey, the news cycle can be especially draining these days and understandably so

try to give yourself a break, too

you carry a heavy burden - whatever it may be for you - without the additional baggage from society and culture

take a deep breath

relax your shoulders

we'll get through it together

if you're reading this,

may you be well,

may you be at peace,

may you be free from harm,

and may you live with ease
