The Shape of Us

To Our Village;

We have never felt more tested than we do right now. Or maybe we have, but it feels different this time.

It feels like we have been holding our breath for the past 5 months—scared not only to release what could be inside, but unsure of the consequences of letting our guard down.

But now we are here. Come actual hell and high water, we have made it back to this place that belongs only to us. It feels like a sacred circle—like that moment we first took our babies into our arms—the relief took on the shape of true love. The relief of this reunion, takes on a different shape. It is just as baffling as the uncertainty we have found ourselves in lately. But this shape that we’ve made—even spaced apart, makes us feel closer to ourselves, than we’ve felt in a long time.
