Have a Lovely Weekend

Happy Friday, friends! It’s been a hard week, hasn’t it?

My heart’s been heavy since the weekend. I’ve been trying to find the right words, something to say that would help make sense of all this. But there are no magic words for this — things need to change. #LoveIsLove

Above all, be kind and loving to one another today and always. I hope you all have a relaxing weekend, and here are my favorite finds from the wonderful Web…
