I tuned in to watch the last hour of Senator Cory Booker's 24 hour filibuster speech, and I found it hope filled and heartbreaking and inspiring. My brain would have been mush after 24 hours! A deep bow of gratitude and esteem to Senator Booker. Thank you.

Things are hard, I know. Our hearts are breaking and we have already lost so much. People and the environment are in danger. The world that we know is possible and we've worked to build is being damaged and made less probable. So what can we do? Suggestions in comments

A gratitude today: one of my kiddos got stuck in snow yesterday and a kind stranger took them into their house and sheltered and fed them until we could get to them and pick them up. In this hard and distrustful world I want to publicly celebrate kindness.

Today (12th February) is the full moon known as the Snow Moon. It comes at a time when we're still in darkness, still in retreat, still buried. Its light reminds us that there is new life below the cold, ice-covered surfaces, and we will see it when the time is right 🌕
