I’m convinced that there isn’t any response quite as evil as saying to a suffering person β€œEverything happens for a reasonβ€œ or β€œIt’s all in God’s plan.”

Especially when their suffering is being caused by a reality that you voted for.

I said goodbye to some amazing women who are incredible social workers. They’re hardworking, dedicated, professional Latinas that enrich our community. I’m so proud of them & to know them.
I know this isn’t goodbye, it’s see you later. They deserved better and so do the kids on their caseloads.

In the first month of the war in #Ukraine, 90% of refugees were women. Three years later, they still make up the majority at 63%.
Displaced women face increased risks of gender-based violence, exploitation, and inequality.
A women-centered approach is key in shaping refugee policy.

I’m disgusted by this and anyone who thinks this is okay. This isn’t about parties. We have to stop this madness.

Sometimes I have to walk away from social media. They’re positives to it and sometimes I can easily find joy. BUT other times it makes me feel overwhelmed, angry, and hopeless. Those moments are when I know to reset and feed my soul with my comfort people, places, and things.

I think that’s part of the frustration for me. Like how do they not see or get it.

Click here to support the Kennesaw Mountain Drama Fundraiser 2025 Fundraising is vital for the success of our program. The funds will aid us in purchasing new uniforms, equipment and other pertinent expenses. Each participant has a monetary goal, please consider don...

Supporting the arts is so important. Especially with already small budgets for drama departments. These has been a place of community and escape for many kiddos.

If you feel inclined, make a donation! You’d be supporting HB. It has 12 hours left.

It’s interesting how some of the most vulnerable populations are labeled by them, but they aren’t ever the problem.

People supporting this crap is mind blowing. The β€œparasite class”: Disabled adults & children; Adopted & foster children; Cancer patients; Retirees; Elderly
College students; Elementary, middle and high school students
Immigrants, etc

It’s like the damn Hunger Games or Divergent. Make it stop.

Compassion fatigue is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion that occurs in individuals who regularly witness or care for others who are experiencing trauma, suffering, or loss.

This is so real right now. This isn’t always just with your personal life.

I’ve taken the past couple of days to decompress a bit. The uncertainty at work can be a lot when you’re trying to take care of your family. And also make sure your team at work will be okay.

Keep contacting your representatives to share your thoughts and concerns. ✊🏼

We need to stop this madness. It’s scary. Wrong. The fact that more American people aren’t outraged is disgusting.

It’s the worse Groundhog’s day ever.

I did like it! Wish it would have been longer to capture more content of each of the books!! πŸ’œ

Yes? It was so good! I need to reread it! Been a couple years since I went through the series! Did you watch the tv series?

Today was a hard day of advocacy. I keep reminding myself I did my best & what was right. It doesn’t make it less terrible.

I did get a beautiful sunset on my way home. Now I’ll have a good cry and rest. So, I can hit the ground running again Monday.

There’s a reason they are calling for your resignation. Don’t let them bully you out!

What tragic loss of life! Empathy and compassionate responses are what the families need.

And then action to stop it from happening again. We need leaders who can hold space and have accountability.

It’s only been 11 days.
