hi hi hello.
i walked into work today feeling a little like the world was burning which was especially fun and dark because i was also listening to we can’t stop and drop it low via the summer rewind playlist spotify made for me (srsly what a spectacular algorithm). if anything though, the walk just reminded me why i started sending this thing. that despite the feels of the week, to keep writing, to remember what’s good, to bring joy to others, and to try my damnedest to have a life here. that’s how the light gets in:

15. “there is a light in this world. a healing spirit more powerful than any darkness we may encounter. we sometime lose sight of this force when there is suffering, and too much pain. then suddenly, the spirit will emerge through the lives of ordinary people who hear a call and answer in extraordinary ways.” – richard attenborough
