What a beautiful meditation on finding hope and solidarity at a time of such devastating loss. There’s no other way to move through this world born of both light and dark.

Thank you, Robin and Troy, for sharing this with us today. 💜

Wonderful tribute Troy and Robin. After getting married the day before, we woke up to the news of the Pulse shooting. I wrote this haiku in response:

Savage and brutal

attacks on Americans

won't stop Love. Ever.

We rise as One Voice

against senseless violence

#WeAreOrlando
