I hope everyone's doing okay.
8 years ago
Everyone's angry and scared and yelling at each other. But I want you all to know that no matter which side you're on, I just want you to be happy. Everyone deserves to be here, and you're just as much a part of this world as the grass and the trees. I'm not very religious myself, but I want you to know that any god worth worshiping loves you as much as he loves those world-famous albino foxes of Japan, the majestic brown bears of the Pacific Northwest, those little sparrows everywhere on the east coast that only show up outside your bedroom window in the early mornings when the earth is still quiet and blue, and those handsome timber wolves that patrol the redwood forests since millennia and might let you stop and take a picture of them, if they allow it. You were born from the same earth as them. You are just as beautiful. And you have just as much of a right to be here. No matter what happens, I want you to be brave and hold love in your heart. Never hate. Don't hate your fellow man. The ugliest thing you can put inside your body is hate. It was once said by a wiser person than me that only the unloved hate. You are not unloved. And right now, our world needs love. Now more than ever. The bravest thing you can ever do is hold compassion and good will in your hearts and try to spread those values to others.
Outside of all the noise of what's going on in the world right now, there's someone very important to me out there and she's been on my mind a lot lately. I hope one day all of you have someone who can understand you. Someone who can hold you in their arms and make the rest of the world disappear. If there's one thing this community has always done, it's been to bring people together, outside of the rules and barriers that the rest of the world lives by. I've always wanted my work to help people be more comfortable with a side of themselves that they might never accept otherwise, and I will always work towards that goal no matter what, for the simple reason that I consider helping people be happy with themselves to be fundamentally good. No matter the medium, I will always work to help people in any way that I'm able to until I die. And I want you to do the same. All of you.
I don't have any more words to give, so in the interest of good spirits I'll just leave you with this:

FA needs more journals like this and more and more members like you.

I appreciate you saying that. I'm not a very well spoken person, but this is just something I typed up in a few minutes because I just felt like I had to. If it makes even one person feel better then it was worth it.
