Another fresh new year is here . . .
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!

This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!

I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!

I'm over being nice. But I refuse to stop being kind. Kind can be candid, shrewd, strong... even sexy. Our kindness means more than ever in these uncertain times. Hope these items help you say that to the world.💗

🦃 Hey, if you’re not feeling “thankful” today, it’s okay. Sometimes life is rough, and you have to endure it. But will criticizing yourself for feeling this way do any good? 🤔
It really is okay to accept who you are right now. Breathe. Eat. Today will soon become tomorrow. ❤️

A rare, new Sade single dropped this weekend, and it is beautiful. Very melancholy: might bring a tear to your eye.

I’m curious: if you DID NOT VOTE this year, who would you have voted for? And how do you feel now about not casting your ballot?

🤬 CORRECTION: Today I shared what looked like a Bluesky post from outspoken billionaire Bill Ackman claiming to want that app shut down. Now, the account that posted it is suspended. Ackman’s verified X account didn’t have the post. So I got this wrong.
Sorry, y’all. I’m gonna hush now.🤬

I feel feral. Edgy, angry and feral.
Anyone else?

This is shocking, but maybe you can relate. Who’s planning to abandon news because Donald Trump won the election? Why? And what will you read/watch/listen to instead?
