i have more food than i have had in a long time and it feels good to not worry so much. so many of us are on the street and it's so much bad news that me having a whole week of food, without working, is a win for all of us. feeling like life is possible. ✊🏻⚧️

    Unfortunately didn't get the first place we applied for. So I'm feeling pretty sad. But we are still working on it. And I'm trying really hard to stay balanced. Trying to stay positive.

    hope is a precious resource. i know. staying positive might not be something you can do and that's okay. if you can eat, hydrate, and sleep it will be easier. even if just the tiniest bit. positivity is a long-game. there are lots of lost battles for me too. it will come. hang on. you can let other folks believe and hope for you too. you can turn that over for a while if you need. i had to do this a lot. letting go is not the same as giving up.

    im so deeply proud of you for talking about it here and showing us how to keep going. one step at a time. 💜
