26. Bring Love Back

When I realized Trump had won the election I hugged my boyfriend and told him I was sorry. It felt like I had let him down. “What do we do now?" I asked.

He answered, "Even in the depths of hatred we can always bring love back." 

Bring love back means; share safety with those who seek it. Find boundaries for those who need them and raise gratitude from the smallest of places.  

If we all proudly live our lives out loud and treat everyone around us with kindness, love and respect, especially our perceived enemies. We will prove to them there is no need to fear us and absolutely no reason to hate us or hurt us.  

"Once they realize that we are indeed their children, that we are indeed everywhere, every myth, every lie, every innuendo will be destroyed once and all." -Harvey Milk

If someone needs our help, stand up for them. If they need our wisdom, be patient and kindly show them how to bring love back.
