My Uncle is retiring today, it's his last full day of work. Tomorrow they are having a retirement party. They invited us, but they live 4 hours away, and I'm still a bit tired from last weekend, but I made a decision to go anyway. I'm getting tired of seeing everyone only at funerals. I'm thinking about this especially today, we spend way too much time in death, in hopelessness, and it's hard not to with everything that's going on. We need to start celebrating wins, to live in some hope, to believe that even the terrible shit that's going on is a season. I'm watching the protests, I'm watching people ask questions, I'm watching people change their minds.

I'm proud of my Uncle, and I'm going to celebrate him, and I hope you find something to celebrate too, no matter how small. Let me know something positive in your life in the comments. I love you all.
