This is a wonderful read, Stacy. Thank you. I love this - "silence isn't neutral." My ways of breaking the silence include: attending protests, participating in phone banks, writing postcards, sharing on facebook. It's a very hard time in American history, but I believe democracy will ultimately prevail over trump's authoritarian and fascist ways. IF WE KEEP SHOWING UP AND SHOUTING.

That's great, so glad you found the ways that help you find your voice (and maybe some balance) these days. Keep taking care of yourself, too!

I love this SO much. I have taken screenshots so I can reread often in case I forget to find it again on Substack.

I keep my hands busy to keep my heart calm and my brain clear. Essential re-set.

Thanks Lynne. Yes, keeping our hands in our hearts busy with the good stuff, that's where the magic is.
