Somewhere there's a place for everyone

The composer Leonard Bernstein was born today in 1918. He is famous for (among many other things) composing a musical called West Side Story, which s a modern retelling of Romeo and Juliet. There's a song in West Side Story called "Somewhere" and even though it's not a very happy song, I still like it because it's all about finding a place to belong and a place where love can thrive. I think everyone deserves to have a place to belong and to be loved. Wherever you are reading this, I hope you've found a place where you feel you belong and that you know that you are loved. To that end, I send you much love from me, now and always.
