Thoughts: I hope that you all will be good to each other

In light of the news about Kate Spade, Anthony Bourdain, and another event happening close to home that will never make the national news, I hope that you all will be good to each other.

I hope you know you’re not alone.

I hope you’ll try to understand one another. And I hope that, at times, you’ll succeed.

I hope that you’ll be kind even when it’s hard, and that, in those times, you’ll try even harder.

I hope you remember that your words truly matter; that your smile can transform someone’s day.

I hope that you know that nothing is forever, and that includes your pain.

I hope you know you have a place, a purpose, a value, a beauty that can change someone’s world.

I hope you have hope for yourselves, and that you have hope for one another.

And I hope that you know that if you believe you will be ok, then eventually – every time – you will be.
