Thank you for your hard-won wisdom, H2O Man.
I hold Heather Cox Richardson's statement--that we do not know how this will turn out--to heart, daily.
Finding for myself, my family, my friends, and my community that keeping fierce hope alive, looking for ways to help locally, and holding a vision of a transformed future to be very beneficial.
And by transformed future, I mean one where "We all do better when we all do better" as Jim Hightower's dad and Paul Wellstone said. Enough food, housing, labor unions, meaningful & well-paid work, universal healthcare, and more.
Thank you.
