INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’ DAY ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Micunksi, my daughter, we come from the Iron Eagle Feather family. We are Sicangu Lakota. I promise to always remind you of who you are because it is our job to carry on the strength of those who came before us. Today and every day we celebrate who we are. I can’t wait to share this journey with you ❤️

They say it gets easier with time but does it really? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Each day that passes is another day since the last time I heard your voice, heard your laugh, held your hand or gave you a hug. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Each day that passes is something else that you’re missing out on. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How is that easier? To me it’s harder. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Closing this out with something I said in my story that resonated with a lot of you, and that was “I may never have closure but I strive to have hope.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (A reminder to please not give unsolicited advice. I heal by writing and I don’t need anyone to fix my pain 💛)
