World Mental Health Day.

Today is World Mental Health Day, something that's close to my heart as so many of you know.

A day when we are reminded to always remember, today and every day, that just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it isn't real.

A day when we must reiterate how important it is to never give up on someone with mental illness. Replacing I with we allows illness to become wellness.

A day to truly know that caring for yourself is not self indulgence but self preservation.

An empty lantern provides no light. Self care is the fuel that allows our lights to shine brightly.

Today, and every day, remember to show yourself a little love and take care of you. You are worthy.
