Or their second, third, tenth, etc…

This is your reminder that while the holidays can be an exciting and joyful time for many, they can also be incredibly difficult for people who are grieving, struggling with depression, facing loneliness, or carrying something you may know nothing about.

So as the holidays approach, be a little more patient. A little more understanding. A little more gentle with the people around you.

You never know what someone is carrying into this season❤️‍🩹
