Good morning, Susannah. How timely that I found this post of yours and another one causing me to click here. Thank you for writing both.
This morning I read a comment by a well known chef and entrepreneur nastily extolling the merits of putting “money making” over “life”. Not certain if he thinks Covid is a hoax or if he just doesn’t care when so many people get sick and die. Unsurprisingly he will defend Trump until the end of time.
All to say, I was so upset by his remarks, I wanted to verbally lash out on social media. Then immediately I saw some of your posts and on went the brakes. I again realized why I have been struggling and succeeding in standing down all through this. ( well…mostly I have)
Positivity and kindness is the only way we can move past all the damage and polarization . Yesterday. Denise Shelton made an excellent suggestion in a comment to a newsletter from Linda Caroll Denise is calling for a major increase from everyone in gifting daily random acts of kindness.
In the event you do not know Denise or Linda, I wanted to introduce you three. I am certain you will all enjoy reading one another’s writing. Plus I thought you might like a link to Linda’s article. Donald Trump Gave Us A Box of Darkness by Linda Caroll. ( sorry link not working but title is there🙄)
