We Are All So Good at Smiling

by Amber McBride

My point is that a leaf knows it’s important, at all moments of its life even when it is broken. People always forget that a rough day, a bad year— doesn’t equal a bad life.

God blistered & bothered in the stars saying, How about a mind plague for humankind? We could call it Clinical Depression. Then they handed it out, like spoiled candy.

Remember you have risen out of Sorrow before. The Garden may be different (vaster, trickier, smarter) but your souls are magic, you are not doing this alone.
