Choose Your Adventure

You, my friends, are a gift.

I want to take a moment and thank you for the hard work you’ve done raising kind and courageous kiddos this year.

For those of you muddling through each day – wearing the same pajamas you put on back in March 2020, I hope you’ve not just found ways to survive this pandemic, but carved out new paths to courage and kindness.

Beyond just survival – I’m hoping you’ll find pockets of genuine joy.

I’m grateful for you, your insight, and our community as a place where we’re all learning how to make space and include each other. Your friendship is a gift.

No matter what, you are worthy and deserving of safety, healthcare, and self-agency. This coming year, we will fight to ensure that.

For today, though, I’m taking a minute to think about what a gift it is to have this community – where we can be together even as we’re spread around the planet.

As always, no one expects you to tackle everything below. Just keep these issues on your radar, and keep asking your kids – and yourself :

How can we be more generous with each other?

With you,

Ashia R.

PS: This winter, join me in learning how to keep others warm without setting ourselves on fire.

Ashia (they/them or she/her)

I’m an Autistic, multiracial (Chinese/Irish) 2nd-generation settler raising two children alongside my partner on the homelands of the Wampanoag and Massachusett people. My goal with Raising Luminaries is to collaborate with families and educators in raising the next generation of kind & courageous leaders, so we can all smash the kyriarchy together.
