Taking a cue from Heather Cox Richardson today, from - because I'm exhausted just thinking about all the levels of chaos going on. And HCR stated it all so well in her post from today, which I quote in it's entirety. :
"Lots of people are tired right now. Indeed, the whole point of the constant stream of chaos coming from the administration is to exhaust us to the point we will stop caring what Trump and his supporters do.
But have you noticed that reporters are increasingly calling out the administration's lies, and people are increasingly articulating what they want the world to look like, rather than what we are currently enduring? Famously, "in the midst of chaos there is also opportunity."
Here's a little inspiration for those of you for whom the chaos is
obscuring the opportunity: Wilhelmina Smith of the highly-regarded Salt
Bay Chamberfest, a small non-profit performing arts organization in
Maine, playing her cello-- somewhat unexpectedly-- in the light of a
late-summer afternoon.

This in the midst of the horrendous fires in Ashland, Oregon and Butte County, California - (again)
But we soldier on, right?
