Flow

Imagine for a minute the beauty of a river flowing—a meandering stream, consistently in motion.

Now picture yourself floating along with the current.

We are constantly dodging debris, figuring out ways to be more fluid.

We are continuously shifting roles from mother, to partner, to worker, to friend all while maintaining our sense of self.

The switching isn’t seamless, nor should we hold ourselves to such a standard.

But in order to make these changes less jarring, emotionally charged, mentally exhaustive

We should acknowledge and find gratitude for the powers that keep us lifted—

For all of the roles we wear and carry are inspired by the many hands on our backs who supply the love that keeps us afloat.
