I felt the urge to pack — not because I had somewhere to go,
but because I wanted to be ready the moment my real life begins.

I honored my creative force and followed it.
This is your permission slip to do it too.
If you need to get rid of fear, doubt, unkind remarks from the past: drop them hear. I take out trash every day.

When the world goes mad...sanity becomes rebellion. Stay sane.

It was just a cold, windy afternoon.
I stood in the kitchen, watching the tree sway outside.
And without planning it, I smiled and whispered:
“I’m home.”
Some moments rewrite everything.
(And I’m not even talking about the physical location I was in at that moment.)

The messy middle is sacred.
It’s where things stop performing and start becoming real.

Risk...is what’s left...after you think you’ve planned for everything. Of course...you never have. That’s why nothing matters more than the skill of staying calm...clear...and collected...especially when life throws the punch you didn’t see coming...and it always does. To recover quickly...is magic.

I don’t want the seasons — or the systems — to dictate what I can or can’t do anymore.

If your government thinks the Pope “doesn’t know what he’s talking about” when he defends migrants’ dignity, the world should see the warning sign. The US is no longer leading on human rights. It’s suppressing them.

There’s a long list of unwritten laws that shape our lives — and most of them deserve to be questioned.

If your ‘true self’ makes your kids unsafe, is it still you being real — or just refusing to grow?

Yes, you’re probably right to think you’ll struggle again. In the rarest cases, struggles vanish overnight.
Still there’s nothing stopping you from stopping the feelings associated with your struggles to take over your day, life and self.

Trump’s threat to withhold federal support unless voters choose his preferred candidate is coercive abuse of power. Federal funds aren’t a campaign bargaining chip, and democracy isn’t supposed to work this way.

Every single one of us has the inherent power and right to say no when we feel that something is wrong.

I drew a line called off-limits and then danced along the edge, every touch a close call, every tease a near miss. You drew a line and called it friendship, but friends don’t look at each other like this.

Donald Trump has decided to resume active nuclear bomb testing which the US abandoned over 30 years ago. Military experts say it is unnecessary. Why is he doing this?

Huge thank you to the comedians, musicians, artists and writers who are just as mad and bewildered as the rest of us but are still doing their best to make life worth living for everyone.

40% of households relying on SNAP have kids
People are quick to blame the parents
It’s not the parent’s fault that 1 in 8 Americans are forced to rely on SNAP
It’s a systemic failure
Blaming the parents is just a different way of saying you’re fine if kids starve

Everything that benefits mothers benefits the entire family, community, country.
Supporting mothers isn’t a nice thing to do. It’s a prerequisite for prosperity.
