I could’ve written this myself. You’re not alone. The only thing that makes me feel hopeful is how many other people feel this way. I go back and forth between feeling guilty for not reading the news for a while and realizing that I need to do that in order to survive. I saw a quote that said, “Rest is not retreat, rest is preparation.” I repeat that to myself when I feel like I’m being selfish for protecting my peace.
I’m also working on ways to build a more equitable life and society. I think we’re about to see a big change in the way we build community and look out for each other because we’re realizing that the government does not have our best interests in mind.
stop feeling.
start doing.
do something fucking witchy.
