I have a lot of stuff about hope saved in an email draft--everyone from Mariame Kaba to Audre Lorde is on it. And also this solid article of how to deal with "hope fatigue" by Lesley Alderman.
It's nice to read this draft as it never fails to cheer me up.
(I suppose that's a good thing as I'm feeling a bit shaky currently. I teared up when I dropped Big A off at the train station and then cried in the car on hearing this fairly standard radio story because they talked about the 25th anniversary of Purple Rain. Something is going on with me, and I'm not sure what it is yet. Yes, I wish Prince were still in this world, but surely, it wasn't just that?)
Pic: Book Club over the weekend. Being with them gives me hope.

Oh, Maya. I'm sorry. It must be so hard, having to live apart, and for an undetermined amount of time. It's a lot. I had not heard of hope fatigue, but I completely get it. xoxoxo
I like that quote and I'm sorry you're feeling low.
Thank you, friends; it comes and goes... and comes back :) C'est la vie, non? XOXOXO
