Be Still and Breathe
Stop, look, and listen to the day,
Don't speak, don't plan, just be.
Sink into your heart, right here,
And let your soul feel free.
The space between each breath is enough.

Look, I'm going to tell you a secret. If you buy an e-book while it's on sale, you never have to read it. If you have $2 to spare & want to help that particular author, you can just chuck the book into the oubliette of your TBR. Every sale helps. The author will never know, but you gave them a gift.
There's a list of artists we lost this year in today's New York Times and I found myself weeping once again at the beauty of Andrea Gibson and the hole they leave in this world.

If the only thing we have is each other, that is so so much.
Live.

Heather Cox Richardson offers the most lucid explanation(s) of the way Trump and his cronies are taking a hammer to our beautiful America. Get her daily letter wherever you get your podcasts.
“It seems to me nothing man has done or built on this land is an improvement over what was here before.”
― Kent Haruf
Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Finally finished a picture my sister requested. Need much more practic…
Some of us have been out here for quite a while now. One of the reasons we are making the case slowly is that an awful lot of people haven't been paying attention. If reports start too far from what they think is the norm, they tune it out as hysteria. We need more voices to spread the truth faster.

Attending live music performances is one of the best things you can do for yourself.
I feel like Cardinals know they look good. 🤔

I do wish I could find a book club to join?
I’m an introvert who years for intelligent conversations…
Anyway, it’s 64 times around the sun today.
Quiet day, but key lime pie for dessert :)

finished “The Garden” by Nick Newman today.
It def held my interest/focus which is difficult these days.
I’ve picked up/started so many books lately.
No spoilers, finished in 3 days.
It had a heck of a twist towards the end and I’m glad I read it.

Surround yourself with liberal, educated, intelligent people — empathetic people who care about others. It will make you feel better to remember that you're not alone. These are very dark times in America. Don't let the bastards grind you down.
