Thanks Sarah! I very much appreciate the appreciation 😉 Glad it was of use for you. Yeah, don't beat yourself up about feeling beaten up :-) we humans are so funny! Something a little less funny is that people who don't have time to deal with trauma in their life save it up until they do, or transfer it as genetic post traumatic stress to the next generation. Dealing with crisis when it's there is a very important job. Good that you are doing that. I know of course a little healthy perspective that can keep you from totally dissolving in it is a nice thing to have too. Tell me about it. But I guess self acceptance is something that always works no matter what as a soothing balm.
It sounds great that you are talking about human values in politics and that they show up for you everyday challenging you. That's what we want no? To be challenged to polish up our hidden gems. Love Clara
