They’ve accumulated over a lifetime, my people. From a young age until now, those who I enjoy, respect most, learn from, love. My people.

When I’m with them I feel whole, I feel safe, I feel love in a different way, complete.

My people are a diverse and varied bunch, a unique cadre, they don’t all know one another, though some do.

I always want their perspective, opinion, insight, support. They are the people I love and cherish the most. And I am eternally grateful and better for knowing them. My people.
