This is a testament to how ordinary people can do extraordinary things. Much work ahead, cannot become complacent, but we can save our democracy for our children and grandchildren. The Resistance is strong.

Millions of workers are toiling away from their families over the holidays. So thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Pay all workers a living wage.

These are such challenging times for "two-leggeds" who need support. It's lovely to see "four-leggeds" overcoming grief and being held with compassion. A moment of joy we can hold close.

Orphaned elephants grieve just like we do. When two-month-old Kaikai lost her mother, she paced through the nights, calling out. But with love, traumatised babies can pull through. Once Kaikai realized Keepers like Mishak would always be there, she began to turn the page: swt.bio/kaikai

In light of recent events, I thought about my book where I wrote about attempting to understand evil. One quote calls us to know ourselves in order to avoid projecting fear and hate onto others. Auden wrote, “Evil is unspectacular and always human, And shares our bed and eats at our own table.”
