I’m from Minnesota. Raised in Ottertail County. I’ve lived all over the country and yet when people ask me where I’m from, I proudly say, “I’m from Minnesota”. It takes everything in me most days to not break into tears in so much sadness and rage. But I can’t express enough how proud I am of Minnesota and to be able to say I am Minnesotan. I wish there was a way I could be home, on the ground helping. But I want everyone to know that you are not alone. And just my words may not be able to do much tangibly. I just hope so much that you can feel the love that I have for Minnesota and EVERYONE who calls it home. Never let them mistake Minnesota nice as weakness. I love you all!
