Working on local elections has helped prevent a sense of helplessness and limited doomscrolling. There are amazing local candidates who inspire me to be my best self!
Thanks for the advice Ariella. It took me awhile to post anything on my Facebook page. Then I felt guilty that I was not stepping forward like so many of you substack folks. I have only shared certain posts in the hopes that it might encourage others to step up. Also wanted to make it clear where I stood. But after reading your advice today I have decided I have made my point. I am too old to be this frightened so I only read your substack and maybe one that makes me laugh. I will recover in a week or so and return to others. I cannot let hatred emerge in my being as I am an empath. I was a teacher and a school principal and love all people. Hugs to you and your following!
Thank you so much for doing these. I felt pretty lost after yesterday but reading this reminded me that we still need to keep fighting. Their job is to make us feel like nothing matters, while our job is to show them that we haven’t lost
