Happy Friday Kate and virtual friends! I awake every Friday and am glad it’s Friday, but at some point as I actually realize what Friday means, a new piece from Kate, I’m ecstatic! Thanks for these beautiful poems, you’re such an amazing writer!! Much love ❤️
I was jumbled all week, forgetting what day it was. And then I opened my email and saw your post was ready to read! Yay! Always good to read the post from you Kate. 💜💜💜
“What greater bravery and honor exist??” To wake up every day, and to face the struggle (that is real) and get up and go through your day. I am going to focus on this quote this weekend.
You gave all you had being an auntie this week and that's okay! You may not have been able to eloquently string together elegant sentences, but what you shared is amazing! Wishing you a restful weekend! ❤️
I feel this so often in teaching" All I ever wanted was to belong
But how can I belong when the wild of my being is only welcome if it’s tamed?" One I feel like my students tame themselves to make friends. But I know I do this so that my work place feels easier, also I do have to hide parts of myself, my political values get tempered and tamed, and my sexuality I hide it because of fear of being fired, or outcasted by other staff members. But I also want to be all of those things fully so students can see what it's like to live authentically as your full self💜
“The wild of my being is only welcome if it is tamed”…. SO PROFOUND. I want to make this a poster, a plaque. They all spoke to me; this one demanded to be shouted everyday.
Thank you for these beautiful words. They mean so much. So many lines resonated but a favourite is “Broken is how the light gets us” May you shine your light everywhere you go Kate! 💜💜💜💜
