“What you are doing is holy, and I hate that it is your work to do. I pray I can be as courageous as you are if one day this is my work to do too (and you are courageous, make no mistake: in case you need the reminder, courage only comes with fear). Thank you for your light in darkness.
(I’d link to a picture of my 9 yo son’s planned protest sign to ‘MELT ICE’ but he’s yet to construct this. He did come up with this probably-not-uncommon sign slogan entirely on his own after we talked about what was happening)”
