💖Christmas is now, with New Years coming soon. For some, today is a day of joy. But for so many others, it’s just a hard day. I am thinking of you.

I'm thinking of my LGBTQ+ siblings who have to hide or face rejection, gaslighting, or worse, just to make it through the day.

Also thinking of anyone who has lost a loved one recently or long ago, where a family holiday only makes that empty seat sharper. 💔

As an out Bi person and a BIPOC queer, I know my safety is a privilege many don't have. I don't have a clever system or a punchy solution for your pain today.

What I can say is this: You are seen. You are loved. You are worthy.

Choose kindness for yourself today. If you need to stay hidden, do. If you need to rage, rage. If you need a moment of quiet Emotional Coherence to anchor your center, take it.

It is absolutely ok to spend the holidays alone if it means you are safe.

My love sent to you across the whole web. I LOVE YOU. ❤️‍🔥
