THIS IS IMPORTANT STOP SCROLLING AND READ THE WHOLE THING
Please believe me when I tell you:
Double the fuck down on your spiritual practice now.
You are going to need it.
And no, that doesn't have to be a prayer-god thing.
The thing that sustains and nourishes you.
That makes you more alive to yourself, the world, others.
More present.
