Repeat to myself:
Asking for help builds a bridge. Asking for help is an act of care. Asking for help seeds hope for the future.
Offering help builds a bridge. Offering help is an act of care. Offering help seed hope for the future.
Be a relay for care. Care is a basket woven across generations.
I can offer help from all my different broken, dancing states of matter.
I am being offered help from all kinds of different broken, dancing states of matter.
Care anywhere nurtures the web everywhere. Add care to everything, day by day.
Many generations have been deprived of aspects of care. Help each other remember how to do it.
Any act of resistance to cruelty is an act of care. Center care in your resistance. Adore your caregivers.
Care expands beyond our time.
Believe.
Stretch.
Breathe.
Repeat.
