Today, a funeral Mass for Max. A young man in his 20s, shot & killed by police during a mental health crisis. As a kid, multi-talented & fun, between my oldest & middle sons. How did we get here?😭 Many layers of grief & loss, questions about how we care for one another. #RIP

We have 2 things to do: Love God & love one another. Never mind labels. Love is baked into our bones!🩵 Fear & the misuse of power stand in the way of Love. Choose to love fearlessly, deep & wide. Let ourselves be loved. Put more love into the world. Please🙏🏻🌎🌍🌏#SundayFlower

How much do I love seeing you and your family? Haters hate. Takers take. Jealousy is ugly. 🩵

Thanks, Tommy 🩵 Put me in Coach! Bringing the shortstop spring & bling 😂

You and me, Lynn!

Truth! 🤣

Friends who are Cubs fans, thinking of you in the desert 🌵⚾️🩵

Teacher leave those kids alone 🎶🩵

Ding, ding, ding! David guessed right 😅 Criminalizing poverty & mutual care is real. Some communities are harsher than others. We need to connect to each other & help as we can. Laughing through the mess helps, GIFs 😝 Caring community on X helps too. Thank you all.🙌🏻

Just trying to lighten what I carry & lend a hand, unburden. 🤎 Also trying to help others feel they belong, to connect, be together.🧡 And loving these fall colors. 💛 Do you? 🍂🍁#MugMonday

Here comes some chicken soup, David! 🍜 thank you for taking care 🩵

Good Sunday morning, David & all ✨🙏🏻🩵

Anyone else indulging in Netflix’s latest monster? Now I can’t get the Lizzie Borden song-worm out of my mind😬😅

Sometimes our 1st response to unpleasant requests or news is no. We don’t want to think or feel about it. Changing our minds & hearts can take time. But Love has a way of getting our attention! Help us turn toward Love & widen our hearts for the sake of others. 💛 #SundayFlower

Thanks Adam, you too! One way we stay connected here is through commenting, I hope.
