I just got back from a week with some of the most vibrant and beautiful human beings I have ever had the privilege to share space with. Wanna know what the kicker is?
Most of them were under the age of 18.
If it's quiet and I'm alone, I just cry. I miss them.
They’re vulnerable and and smart and kind and hilarious. They're soulful and compassionate and challenging and quirky. They're wise and perceptive and feeling and thinking and wide open-hearted.
They dance and sing and sit in circles with one another. They encourage and support.
