Stand by Me. I will stand with you.

I don't even want to focus on the last rays of hope that things will change before the inauguration. I don't know what the next few weeks will bring, yet I do. Like everyone else I am horrified and terrified for friends and family. We need to do this together or not at all. The light will be behind us, darkness is coming....

Stand by me, I will be standing by you. Oh darlin' stand by me. I won't be afraid.

We need to do this together. HELL! WE should have been doing it together forever.

Talkin'bout a Revolution



A friend told me I should seek a center/ focal points to breathe. I have four now since I added these two.

Love you all.

Some will not make it, but we can minimize the damage if we treat each other with respect, and try to cushion the most vulnerable against the animosity we know is coming.

No minority should stand alone.

Yet the collateral damage...no words.

Oh so true, and so disheartening.

Love you too, sheshe.
