Jessica, you are such a gift to all of us. I so look forward to your Sunday summaries of good news. They soothe my soul and inspire me to keep on keeping on. I know it is so much work for you Jessica, but we would not be in this encouraging space without you. Blessings and sweet dreams!

Thank you for your tremendous work, Jessica! . And let’s add the 50 states protests on Wednesday. We had over 4000 in Denver. The whole thing came together quickly as a massive grassroots effort. It was successful despite fears spread on line by some organizations that seemed to be suspicious of such grassroots organizing .

Thank you! I haven't watched any news since the election. The only exceptions are you and Heather Cox Richardson.

I agree, but you should give Robert Hubble a try as well as Robert Reich and Charlie Sykes. They all have moved me to action. And not feeling isolated.

Drawing from the echoes of a song so long ago, part of it resonates with this litany of myriad steps that add up to a great deal:

Before the rising sun, we fly

So many roads to choose

We start out walking and learn to run

And yes, we've just begun.

Indeed.
