As many are aware, Los Angeles and surrounding areas are being impacted by wildfires that have burned through some well known neighborhoods and areas, homes have been destroyed, several people have passed away, and close to 100 000 people displaced with those numbers all rising.

To those who are in the affected areas, be sure to take care of yourself. Do not ignore what your body and/or mind are telling you. Get proper care, try and stay fed and nourished, and take care of your families first. If any of you are reading this and need a safe place to express yourselves and help process the emotions, I’m here as your friend and will gladly listen. We may not know each other all that well, but after experiencing flooding and having friends enduring wildfires here in Canada, a friendly face or someone willing to listen can go a long way to bringing some comfort in times of trials.

And if not me, reach out to someone else you trust and feel safe with. Just be kind to yourself.

In solidarity,
Jeremy
