I pray that I didn't worry you because it was not my intent; I am like that dog who barks in the night at the tree-branch scraping against the window. Sometimes my alarms are entirely unwarranted.
Listen: now is not the time to back down. This is when they'd like for your insecurity and self-doubt to creep in but you absolutely cannot let that happen. Four weeks. A month! It is nothing. A month ago was Halloween, how quickly the time from then to now passed. It will be over and done with before you can even wake up from this lucid dream. Surface for a moment, draw in a deep breath and dive. You can do this because you have already decided that you will.
The amount of strength and support that you can draw from is unthinkable. Everyone should be so lucky, so loved. Each moment that you sit idle, remember the place that your heart resides, go back to your home in your mind and be renewed. Don't lose sight of where you come from, and where you will be returning.
You are the support of so many, remember that. They will look to you when they're wavering. You cannot look weak, insecure, doubtful. Keep your chin up. Unchain that lion who resides in your heart. Lead your people to the finish with a loud and resounding roar.
Send me strength and I will come back to you all like Leonidas. Tempered by the fires of hell and with an indomitable spirit from St. Peter himself.
Hang on tightly, let go lightly.
About Me

- The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break, it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure that it will kill you too, but there will be no special hurry.
