“We don’t want more desperation and misery. We want inclusion and fulfillment and inspiration.”—I often struggle with this as a writer, because sharing the pain and the darkness comes naturally to me. It’s what occupies my brain. The inspiration, not so much. I think we all want to read the happy stuff, but we need to read the darker stuff too, to know we are not alone.

Very powerful piece. Love the desperation/inspiration juxtaposition. Am so admiring these pieces.
