I don't know what else to do but write. Kevin and I attempt to articulate what we're thinking and feeling about the state of affairs of Minnesota and the nation.
I felt this deeply. I am glad you have verbalized this. I have shut down and shut myself away. I am torn between doing all I can to shield and protect those dearest to me while wanting to speak out, take action and help those who need it most. Whatever rose colored glasses many had have been shattered. The world is full of discord and hate. I hope one day the division and ignorance can come to a halt.
Liz, thank you for commenting. I think being a mom and an active citizen in a community can sometimes be one and the same, and other times it can feel like two conflicting halves of my soul. You get it. Thank you.
