I sent this to my teacher colleagues. Thank you so much. We are working to survive with so little support as mothers and humans as well. All of your words, like balm.
Jaiya John-cara, we say, we add “cara” to the end in the Celtic tradition to say~ soul friend~ dear one, thank you! I cried through this whole glorious, essential liturgy the whole time thinking of my beloved husband~ such a pirate, a male in education, a HS counselor, and what he sees and navigates daily and he just keeps showing up and I love him so much. The kids love him; he saves lives. And I read this and I think~ I’m gonna love on him even more. Thank you so much for this piece. It moves my soul so deeply. Praises to the Pirate-angels among us!
