“#Ramadan is here and to be honest,
I am *really* tired.
It’s usually a month of community, hope, renewal
but it feels difficult to lean into any of that as we face a third wave,
let alone the wild ride the past year itself has been.
Last year,
there was hope this year would… be different.
This year,
I feel spiritually, emotionally and mentally exhausted.
I need this spiritual recharge and I’m so very grateful to witness another #Ramadan.
But I am also really sad and scared and dragging along what feels like so much grief into this month.
And this is coming from someone who is healthy and employed and has a stable roof over my head.
Anyway,
just want to share for anyone feeling similarly.
May this #Ramadan be filled with the opportunity to heal our hearts, spiritually grow and ease our sadness.

Thank you for the kind wishes, Jan. 💕🙏🏽
I know the light is there… have to keep reminding myself to look and strive for it.
