“Optimism is an act of revolution”
-- Shannon Curtis @shannoncurtis

This shirt you sent me
A gift, an act of sharing,
It fits me well

I wear it like armour
Saving it for days I fear
Might be challenging

I believe in your words
And I believe in myself.

Some months ago, @shannoncurtis was kind enough to send out merch as gifts to her community. I was lucky enough to be a recipient of her generosity.

"Optimism is an act of revolution"

I have found myself quoting this in conversations, and it resonates with me. Remaining hopeful in spite of everything we are up against is critical to forward momentum; to making change. This applies to us collectively, and in my daily life There days where I cling to the message like a mantra. Thank you <3

@damia oh my …. I’m so touched by your words, Damia! Thank you thank you thank you ❤️
