My heart is full of so many different things right now. I'm frustrated, angry, scared, and so, so tired of current events. My heart is exhausted. I love and empathize deeply and it gets me in trouble with my anxiety sometimes. The only thing I know is that change comes in the form of individual moments and individual people making choices about what they want to spread into the world. I know that I will never choose hate (though the behavior of some people challenges me daily), and that the only real cure to pretty much everything that ails us is love, and unity. We can disagree on many things. Our humanity should never be one of them. Love is the most powerful force in the universe. Each of us has that power. Today I'm choosing to pull as much calm and kindness into my heart as possible, to appreciate and love others, and to create. Stay close to your own heart today. Stay close to your own humanity. Love yourself. Love others. Make art.
Love, Cheri ❤️™
