Wow! Shift happens! If you feel especially tired/exhausted/frustrated, you are not alone. With so much focus on perpetrators of violence, oppression and bullshit, I want to express that I am amazed that we are still holding on to one another. I see you and I witness your resilience even on those days where it is difficult to see the bright side. If you find yourself at the capacity to come to any of these events, please come out! Burn out sucks so take care of you first.
