      Listen to me for a moment please. On this day last year I was hanging with my brother and had no earthly idea that it would be our last holiday season together. This world can be ugly, mean, and hard, but you can't go wrong loving on your family and cherishing every moment.

      Never make the people you love the most guess how you feel about them. Tell them with your words. Show them with your actions. Laugh with them. Tell stories with them that only they know. Hug them with meaning. Tell them you missed them. Get them gifts. Surprise them.

          Every time I see your name on Twitter, I remember the day you posted about your brother. I'm sorry, Shaun. I'm still holding that space with you. Grief is always mixed in with our work and our joy. Peace, brother.

          Very true. I am also spending my first xmas without my little brother, who died earlier this year. Ive learned to keep those that matter close and don't be embarrassed to take more pictures with them.

          I’m sorry that the holidays are hard for you this year. Been in that place for too long. I think you’ve got the right idea in that second part. Hugs. Prayers. Good thoughts. All of it.
