Love Letter

This piece is a love letter to little me.  

To the kid who was always scared and lost and alone.

I’m sorry there was no one to reassure when, to your core, you were consumed by worry.  Ruminating the what if’s of abandonment, loss, and other monsters life would hide in your closet.  You were lost and alone in a very dark cavern and you managed to find your way while maintaining enough compassion to help others find their way, too.

​

If I could reach through time to be with you, I’d be the one to tell you that everything will be okay.  I would tell you how proud I am of you… 

how strong

and brave

and resilient you are.
