    She is so amazing in how she can relate to others. I know, unfortunately, that it is a different kind of blessing to again feel grief rather than longing when I hear of someone who died by suicide.

    I am an avid #MentalHealthAwareness advocate and spoken word performer, and I love this so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my CZcams channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates. 💙

      Write your heart, then use your current words to find a rhythm through rearranging and synonyms. Don't force it, just let the pen flow

      When your heart gives you words write them. When a strong of sounds sound like language and your body responds write it.
