|  Blog Post   |  May we be kind in the days ahead.
Our common humanity levels the ground to walk one another through and home.

May we be kind in the days ahead.

Whether your tears come from joy, gratitude, and praise or heartbreak, fear, and disappointment… everything you’re feeling is valid. And however you’re praying, or whoever you’re praying to, may we choose grace, curiosity, and love as we turn toward one another, holding space for it all.

May we be kind in the days ahead.

Today, the day after the election, I get to spend the day with 300 of my favorite educators—people doing super hard work with children and families and the work of healing and strengthening their culture. So yes, I’ll gratefully take your prayers too.
