Our skin carries the scars and bruises of our past. But, our skin is abundant. It has the power to regenerate and repair old wounds. People often mistake our skin for being monotone, different shades of one color. But, if you pay enough attention, you'll see how the light dances and refracts off our skin, like radiant blessings from our ancestors. And if you look closely, for every red, violet, blue, green, or yellow hue, there is a breadth of stories, histories, and lessons transmuted from the past to help us create brighter tomorrows.
As we look towards new perspectives and opportunities, our skin is like a kaleidoscope, ever-changing as we grow. We allow old patterns to fade and shift into new forms of light. We are the stewards of new futures for our communities.
