There’s always still a list of so much that needs to be done in a variety of contexts, all things I WANT to do but just don’t have enough to do — enough energy, enough brain power, enough emotional bandwidth, enough of ME

As someone who barely opens up to other people, this was a big deal. I look back now with fond memories of that weekend. Yes, there were painful moments but what made them beautiful was that everyone was hurting together. No one was hurting alone. While I would love to go into further detail of that weekend, I am choosing to keep the rest of it offline for safekeeping. I am open to questions about the experience, but will not be discussing my bunkmates because I want to keep their privacy.

I care too much about the other siblings who are carrying time-bombs of their own. I care too much about the parents who are doing their best to protect their children. I want to draw a map where no map exists because I know there are people still navigating the wilderness I left behind. I want you to have a better journey than I had.
