“We build a bridge from a place called alone, then walk across it. For a little while, we get to live in together. We get to belong.” Beautiful. And I love the reminder that we have to take those steps to cross the bridge.

"We build a bridge from a place called alone, then walk across it. For a little while, we get to live in together. We get to belong." I've watched you build bridges and lead folks across it, including me. Thank you for guiding so many out of the web of loneliness <3

So often we are together in our aloneness. Although we've experienced it separately, and across such a wide variety of conditions, it's something in which we can find unity and solidarity. Thank you for this reminder to reach out and connect with our fellow human and more-than-human kin in those lonely moments.
