You actually made me laugh here, Jessica!

Otherwise, I am just going to voice a likely unpopular perspective that it's possible to choose to meditate, to turn off the news for 23 hours and 45 minutes per day, and to take time to make green smoothies, without being an anti-vax, climate-change denier, or being a shit to the rest of humanity. That, in fact, taking care of our own mental health is a service to the wider community, by making sure that we have some drops of love and kindness to give to others, and some joy to feed our children with in troubling times. I am still thinking about their futures beyond the pandemic, and those futures require presence of mind now

I write creative nonfiction essays and poetry. Rethinking life through my words. Sometimes too seriously, sometimes not seriously enough.
