Hi, all, and happy Wednesday. A subscriber sent me another good quote yesterday. This one was excerpted from an excellent article in the Guardian by Rebecca Solnit (who’s always amazing.) She says, in part: Despair is a delusion of confidence that asserts it knows what’s coming, perhaps a tool of those who like to feel in control, even if just of the facts, when in reality, we can frame approximate parameters, but the surprises keep coming. Anyone who makes a definitive declaration about what the future will bring is not dealing in facts. The world we live in today was utterly unforeseen and unimaginable on many counts, the world that is coming is something we can work toward but not something we can foresee. We need to have confidence that surprise and uncertainty are unshakable principles, if we want to have confidence in something. And recognize that in that uncertainty is room to act, to try to shape a future that will be determined by what we do in the present.
Thanks for this today. I had a mini meltdown yesterday and today's quote helped so much. Also I just signed up for Jessica Cisneros phone banking for the first time, thanks to your encouragement. Onward!
