“If your outrage is conditional, if your compassion has a colour, if your understanding evaporates the moment you can't relate—you’re not fooling anyone,” said Bear, pausing for a breath...
“If you’re only kind to some, you’re not kind at all.”

Surrounded by tall trees, Rabbit asks, “Why do they try so hard to distract us?” “Because if we stay focused,” said Bear, “they lose.” ©️Tara Shannon #RabbitAndBear

Image description: A white rabbit and bear sit side by side in the lower left of the image. The little rabbit leaning against and looking up to the larger bear. Beside them appears the text in a white handwritten font. The background is gradiated, purple to black, with specks of white stars.
“Ugh!” sighed Rabbit.
“I second that,” replied Bear.
And with that, the two sat together quietly, breathing in and breathing out. Joined in their mutual exasperation and exhaustion.
Tomorrow, they decided, would be a new day.

"I'm afraid." said Rabbit.
"What are you afraid of?" asked Bear.
"I don't know." replied Rabbit. "I just am."
"Then I will sit with you until you're not afraid anymore." said Bear. "We'll face it together."

Every time." The text is attributed to Tara Shannon/@tarashannonwrites. The overall mood of the illustration is serene and contemplative, with the Rabbit and Bear characters conveying wisdom and quiet strength.

There’s a stillness in winter
a silence
that comes from the gentle falling snow
It calls us to listen
to the beat of our own hearts
& to the ancient wisdom of our ancestors
whispering through our veins

In those moments
when you think you're alone
and you take a deep breath
and wonder
"Where have you gone?"
I'm here
by your side
holding your hand
loving you as I always have
and will
forever more

“What are you doing?” asked Bear.
“Practicing my smile.” said Rabbit.
“A smile can hide a lot of scars...” said Bear, “don’t hide them.”
“Why?” asked Rabbit.

"Am I broken?" asked Rabbit.
"No," said Bear. "You're healing. Healing can be messy and it takes time. Sometimes it might feel like you're broken but that's just a rough edge being soothed as it grows and fits into a new place."

"I'm struggling." said Bear.
"Is there anything I can do?" asked Rabbit.
"Just be here as you are now,” said Bear,
“and let me lean on you."
"Do you mind if I lean
a little back?" asked Rabbit.
"Of course not." said Bear.
"We can lean on each other."
