OK. I'm seeing many places where this needs saying.

Many things can be true at the same time.

Even things that you have always thought were mutually exclusive.

I think the work for us to do now involves making spaces (within and between ourselves) in which all the overlapping, layered narratives can live, rather than trying to find one unifying story for us all to get behind.

It’s work, it’s not easy, it’s not necessarily how we were raised, or how we’ve lived for most of our lives, or even how we’d like it to be.
