The Long Days Ahead

Yesterday my sister, Annemarie, posted this video. A young woman speaking passionately about getting help if you are feeling hopeless, helpless, or suicidal. She dared the young audience "to love yourself." She was speaking about a topic for a job she does to a group of her peers. People she went to school with after a young man recently killed himself. He was my niece's friend.
At 1:55 she issues her dare. A young woman out in the world doing amazing work and helping someone with her words, her dares and her smiles.

As we roll into daylight savings time and our time in the sun gets less and less, it is harder to embrace the sunshine since it is usually out while we are at our jobs or in school.
Get out.
Look up.
Feel the sun even if it's only 10° outside.

Animals get it - they are always basking in the sun spots of a house. Join your dog in a nap at the front door. THAT, I dare you to do.

Love yourself, a lot. Love others. Remember to tell them.

Well, everybody's hit the bottom,
Everybody's been forgotten,
When everybody's tired of being alone.
Yeah, everybody's been abandoned,
And left a little empty handed,
So if you're out there barely hanging on...
