"In any moment, on any given day, I can measure my wellness by this question: Is my attention on loving, or is my attention on who isn't loving me?"

I know most people try hard
to do good and find out too late
they should have tried softer.

You Better Be Lightning

every time i ever said i want to die
By Andrea Gibson

A difficult life is not less worth living
than a gentle one.
Joy is simply easier to carry 
than sorrow. And your heart 
could lift a city from how long 
you've spent holding what's been 
nearly impossible to hold.

This world needs those 
who know how to do that.
Those who could find a tunnel 
that has no light at the end of it, 
and hold it up like a telescope 
to know the darkness 
also contains truths that could 
bring the light to its knees.

Grief astronomer, adjust the lens, 
look close, tell us what you see.

If you do nothing today, google Andrea Gibson and read one of their poems. Despite multiple recurrences of cancer, their words and life shone brilliantly until the very end. Thank you, Andrea, for everything. #RIPAndreaGibson
