Gather round this feeling of helplessness. Pull up your shawl for warmth. Shield your eyes so you can see more clearly, even as you don’t want to see any of it, even as it seems even worse than you imagined, and you’re not sure how that’s possible because you imagined a lot.

This is a time to connect. To talk about what’s on your heart - speak your mind, share your thoughts - not to influence others but just to BE (yes, influencing others matters too; save that for a different space). Here we just say it, and bear witness as others say it, and discover what a relief that is.

My coffee hangouts are Mondays at Noon and Thursdays at 8:30am. If this beckons you then please join us. The next one is tomorrow (Thursday July 10) at 8:30am Pacific time and the link is below my signature. (Note this is premium content which costs $5/month to access).

Newcomers are welcome, always. All topics are welcome, always.
