About a year ago I wrote this as a note on FB to several moms I know who have trusted me with their lives.....
This started as a 140 character tweet... to a tweep that was listening to Emo songs.... so for my rambling I am #SorryNotSorry
This
note is for all of the mothers I who trusted me to find a safe place
for your little ones during your most vulnerable & dark times....
I've
had this song on my playlist for awhile. I think I finally just heard
it... or at least I just realized how much is resonates with when we
met.

You
all know who you are you =) & you should know you fit seamlessly
into my Facebook stream =) I enjoy seeing where you are & what you
are doing. This song just reminds me a lot of when I met you &
somewhere in the midst of your personal tragedies we became friends.
We've laughed, cried & celebrated & I appreciate you for
sharing your life with me.
This song just reminds me a lot
of where you were when we met & how far you have come.You may or
may not be with your little one(s) right now but i know that you are a
mom who loves her children fiercely.
I hope you all know
that... We have all been in a place where we just need to hold on for a
night, we've been displaced, & that we feel like no one survives.
you amaze me because not only have you survived you are thriving. I
know it always doesn't feel like it but everyday that you wake up &
face life every time you say hey I need some help here you are
winning.
None of you need to comment. I just wanted to
remind you that you are all courageous & strong. Never forget that
you have a community to support you so that you can continue to
survive. You have home & are no longer displaced.
I
have been spending some time writing out the last decade of my life
& have been thinking about you & your life. I have been thinking
about where you have been, where you, & where your life is headed. I
have been doing the same for me. If we are friends here on the Facebook
it is becuase we are friends & you have taught me much about life.
(Yes I am practicing what I preach you know how I am always telling you
to write it out =) if you need a journal let me know)
