“But the fighter still remains.” Lover of justice and mercy. Wearer of sassy britches and a wonky face. Chaos goblin. Fiercely loved in her chaos and her calm.

Headed to a Ben Rector concert tonight and feeling fancy in a new shirt and borrowed jewelry.

Less than an hour after my Ash Wednesday service, I found out that my aunt died. What a day for being reminded how fleeting our time here is.

Three degree windchill and a driveway to shovel wearing on the lower half of my person only a thin layer of Spandex for incomprehensible reasons? No problem!

It’s hard to know what to do and how to resist, but I for dang sure am going to be seeking as much beauty as possible and finding refuge in poetry.

This is the only way to make my 2025 goal a reality.
I am happy to say I’ve read at least one poem every day so far this year and have banked a few dozen bonus ones for the days when I inevitably have an alarm mishap.

This is a snippet of a video I recorded on Dec. 31, 2023, after listening to @bethmoorelpm.bsky.social’s inspirational NYE thoughts. The year is ending, but the possibilities for redemption of the things that happened this year? Not ending. Healing and growth and rebirth are possible.

I got the most amazing Christmas present, a collaborative effort between @bocassell.bsky.social and @cordiallycourtney.bsky.social. That two people so dear to me would team up to make me feel so seen and cherished …it’s just the best feeling.
