This is an excellent article and I thank you so much for posting it. I wish I had come across it sooner. I intend to share it excessively.
I don’t feel myself ever getting past my rage about this. I’ve been stuck in the Fight/Flight stage since my teens. I cannot relax & I won’t about this.

Friends,
A few days ago I was approached on the street by someone I didn’t know. “Are you Robert Reich?” she asked.
“Yes,” I replied.
“I just want you to know …” she began, and then burst into tears.

Joni Mitchell, the Canadian-American singer-songwriter, is considered one of the all-time greats, and I agree. She effortlessly mixes folk, pop, jazz, and rock, blending them with her ethereal voice.
