Let Grief Be Loud.
When I first started writing about grief, I thought it would be too hard, but it turns out to be the easiest thing I’ve ever done. It has been so easy reaching into my soul and spilling my feelings. Whether people read the poems or I’m posting without results, writing about grief and putting it out into the world has been so healing. Though I’ll never heal, I’m thankful for that, because it means I’ll always have something to write about.

From an international standpoint, we have two major things to watch out for. The first is the conflict over Greenland with a proposed US takeover by President Trump.

When Saying “No” Feels Strange
He did not plan to smoke that day. He was standing outside his school gate, bag on his back, waiting for the van. A boy from his class took out a vape. Another smiled and asked him to try. He refused at first. Everyone laughed, not loudly, not cruelly just enough to make him feel small.
