From start to finish,
It was growth
It was solid,
It was gold.
We hurt each other,
But we loved each other more,
And we gave each other the chance to be ourselves anew.
This love we'll carry into the next stage,
Evolved,
Ready to become new joys.

Merriam Webster - Word of the day: Tranche refers to a division or portion of a whole. World Contact Day is commemorated every year on March 15. It is a unique observance held globally to focus on communicating with extraterrestrial life and exploring the possibility that intelligent beings may exist beyond Earth. World Contact Day inspires people to invoke their curiosity and spend time thinking about the universe and the mysteries surrounding it. What is the “Ides of March”? According to the Roman calendar, the Ides are a monthly occurrence. In March and other months with 31 days, the Ides always falls on the 15th; it falls on the 13th in months with 30 days. The Ides traditionally marked the arrival of the new Moon and was cause for celebration. The word “Ides” is derived from Latin, meaning “to divide.” Mothering Sunday in 2026 falls on Sunday, March 15. Mothering Sunday, celebrated in the United Kingdom and Ireland, occurs on the fourth Sunday of Lent, which is exactly three weeks before Easter. Unlike the fixed-date Mother's Day in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia, Mothering Sunday’s date changes each year according to the Christian liturgical calendar. On March 15, 2026, several notable observances and events are celebrated: Dumbstruck Day: A day to express frustration. Everything You Think is Wrong Day: A day to challenge and celebrate wrong beliefs. International Day Against Police Brutality: A day to raise awareness and advocate against police violence.

Renewal is always nice on the rare instance that it happens. Good to applaud it in a poem
Always becoming deeper & higher & broader & something more.
"We hurt each other, But we loved each other more," Gosh. This one hit hard. We never want to intentionally (usually) hurt our loved ones. But gosh, shit happens. And this was so honest, so real. And I appreciate you owning it. We all should.
