๐Ÿ”ฅCOMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT โ€“ THIS IS WHAT ITโ€™S ALL ABOUT ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Todayโ€ฆ something bigger than poetry happened.
One of our own, James Humecky our Poem of the Week winner stepped up in a way that honestly stopped me in my tracks.
He donated $20 so someone else could chase their dream.
That someone is Kasper Englundโ€ฆ
whoโ€™s had a rough yearโ€ฆ
who thought this opportunity might pass them byโ€ฆ
and is now in tears because of one act of kindness.
Let that sink in for a second.
Not a like.
Not a comment.
A real, tangible moment that changed someoneโ€™s dayโ€ฆ maybe even more than that.
And it didnโ€™t stop thereโ€ฆ
Shoutout to Jamesโ€™s community, Somatic Pleasure, for being part of that energy because people donโ€™t just do things like this out of nowhere. That kind of generosity comes from the environment you build and the values you stand on.
โค๏ธ This is what The Art of Poetry is.
๐Ÿ”ฅ This is what weโ€™re building together.
๐Ÿ–Š๏ธ Not just writersโ€ฆ but people who lift each other up.
James you didnโ€™t just help someone enter a book.
You reminded all of us what kind of community weโ€™re part of.
Respect. Seriously.
And Kasper welcome in. Your story matters. Now letโ€™s get it on paper.
