Sometimes we need a break to gain perspective. The world is big. The earth is beautiful. I say this for no one but myself. A reminder I need. #lakemichigan

So the propaganda from this administration is relentless. Dems need to get their messages out and make them loud. This is the title of emails sent to seniors. It is horrible misinformation.

In a world of terrible people doing terrible things, here is a moment of zen.

Thanks, Seattle. Here’s to joyful resistance and a world where all are valued.

Trump “protects” Israel at the risk of American security and abandons Ukraine to the horrors of Putin.

The world can be overwhelming. Enjoy beauty and cultivate joy when and where you can.

From choirs around the throne to a holiday about resilience and resistance to a woman who won't stay dead...to us today, God calls us to get out of our boxes and into boundary-breaking love.

Derek wrote this album in a month as a love letter to the LGBTQIA+ community. It is also a challenge to the loud silence from the faith institutions as anti-Queer sentiment grows in the US. Tickets: www.eventbrite.com/e/seattle-wa...

If you can, remember to slow down. Read things that aren’t about self improvement, politics, or work. Listen to the world. Feel grass under your feet. And then labor so that all may do these things, too.

Delta, what the holy hell is going on? Instead of me spending increasingly large amounts of money for fewer services, I am going to start charging you an anxiety toll every time I fly.

Backyard peace. Find peace. Appreciate it. Wherever you find it.

The worst, most anti-Christ Easter message I've ever seen. It would be laughable if it weren't so deadly dangerous. If he were in my confirmation class, I'd tell him to put his hand down, close his mouth, and listen. The ignorance fueling his theology is antithetical to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Wishing you a Happy and deeply transformative Easter!

Thanks to members of The Well repping at #handsoff #seattle today and thanks to folks all around the country for saying no to authoritarianism.

Camellias are out. The cherry tree is about to pop. And the roses are showing signs of life. The birds are rioting and for a moment there is peace.

Fox News takes 5 stories down to mention the stock market and leads with a headline praising tariffs before putting “Stock Shock” as a subheading.

Starting a new book. Keep reading. It’s good for the mind. It’s good for the soul.

Rituals really do help when we are lost. They are even better to learn and to integrate into ourselves before we have "lost times."
