Gotta say I’m exceedingly pleased to get a like/follow from this INCREDIBLE person…a voice for truth and one of my personal hero’s!

… I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I'll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
… Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me…

This is from HCR posted in 2018 (full piece linked) and I take great comfort in her words.

I’ve counted the cost. I take some precautions. I live my life. AND I speak up.

Crazy skies. The founders of Home Ec back in the 1920’s-1930’s—a lesbian couple, scientists at Cornell. And. Happy day!!! My favs will be on SLN April 5th. (Also known as I WILL FIND JOY!!)

Changes…. last day at one position, starting Monday in an entirely new job. Exciting! And requires a “new” bag. ;)

This is what I’ve been looking for….this —>

A must read. I’m empowering myself to LIVE a resistant resilient life that creates waves of change—leading just means doing it first.

The only way to be sure to see the WHOLE picture, is to refuse narrow-sourced perspectives. In my opinion those who READ widely will be much safer and saner through all the crap going on now.

Sometimes the grief hits me deeply… I want to look away. But I will not. I will face the truth. Digest it a little. Scream and cry. And then. I will get back to the work of LIVING MY RESISTANCE every damn day.

Panic distorts truth. I’m digging in for the long fight…the marathon, living my truth, protecting those I love and refusing the hype on all sides. Sanity is staying aware and awake but NOT paralyzed.

Today. These views are the truth. And that is enough to keep me going into another night and another day.

Sometimes resistance looks like this. Gratitude feels different this week. …this year.

It’s a beautiful-ish snowy day in Wally World (aka eastern WA state) and I’m celebrating a surprise breakfast-snack in our staff meeting, and my work and my dear clients and wonderful coworkers. Despite everything terrible (and very real) going on in this country right now I will INVEST DEEPLY here.

My not-political extra-curricular recreational activity for this weekend. More to come… MUST keep my sanity.
