Dear You,
Thank you for your letter,
To me, it meant the world.
My spirit, you did better,
For I was in the corner—curled.
My days have been hard and long,
And someone, to me, did wrong.
My ups and downs have been twirled,
For five days now, I’ve lived in the same sweater.
But you reminded me of outside, there is a kind world.
Thanks to your letter,
I know it’s okay, and I do feel better.
With greatest thanks, You

Validation Is Not An Outside Thing
Hey Baby, Can we start by taking a second to celebrate the fact that you are here today? Yes! For some of us, it’s a small victory on life that we get to claim every time we wake up. You and I both know we haven’t always wanted to be here. Choosing to stay is a victory. So, congratulations but also thank you! If you are anything like me at your age, I know you are rolling your eyes, right now. But give me a second. It’s a little sappy—I’m aware—but I believe that at every point in life, we all have something to contribute. It doesn’t have to be huge. It can be a simple word to a person who needs to hear it at that very moment. So there you go.
