Excellent! I've been telling my husband for months that in the face of the inhumane the only thing to do is to become more and more human. To love our actual human neighbors with our actual human selves. I am slowly meeting all the people on my street. Stopping while walking the dogs to say hi and tell them their azaleas are gorgeous. Spending more time in the front yard or on the porch and chatting when they walk by. Makinh friends with their dogs. Waving at their babies. Dropping off Christmas gifts and Easter gifts and May Day baskets. Participating in the 4th of July potluck. Decorating for Halloween and handing out candy. Sharing tomato and zucchini starters. Getting advice on our fruit tree. Whatever I can do to connect with these folks. I am 100% sure we don't agree on things, but I want to always remember that we are humans together.
So much love for this ❤️ I’ve been thinking lately…I no longer want to be a “user” or an “ad dollar.” I want off the hamster wheel so I can opt in to the moments my soul will remember thirty years from now.

I've been thinking so many of these same thoughts. I really feel that something significant and collective is happening. <3
This is breathtaking, Faith. I'll be returning to this one again and again.
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment, Krista! I'm so glad it spoke to you. x
Ohhh Faith, this is just stunning. So stunning 🤍 I love the “open hearted and thin skinned.” I need that reminder, that ethos of loving well.
Thank you Sarah! I know we're kindred spirits when it comes to this stuff. x
