It is good to be witnessed making mistakes. It is part of trying. It is part of learning.

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

I’m getting lots of emails from Amazon pushing their new drug and “healthcare” services. I’m betting others are too.
I can’t help but think this is related to how the GOP plans to destroy Medicare, ACA, and the VA and privatize- with RFK jr in charge.
It smells of billionaire grift.

Can a person be responsible even if they don’t “feel” responsible? (Yes. I’d argue, yes.)
For this purpose, I have to remember that “responsibility,” as a word and concept, can mean both “culpability” and something like “possession of consequences.” Two separate ideas, only sometimes linked.

Growing up being taught I was inherently unqualified to lead (daughter of Eve problems) did a number on me—but the cognitive dissonance did give me a keen eye for what qualities and kinds of people actually make brilliant leaders.
(The people who often lead instead are gut-wrenching, brain-melting.)

Hey, keep breathing.
Soften your shoulders, your belly, your jaw. You are not alone, even if you have been before.
Reconnect to your edges, the weight of you, the presence of you in you.
There is nothing right now that requires you to be anywhere other than in your body.
Return. Soften. Take care.
