Please do not feel you need to read them all (but please read this one)
Good morning again Engaged Durhamites for Democracy. I am going to state the obvious. I post a lot!! This is the second post today, and it is Sunday for crying out loud! You might be asking yourself, “Does this woman have a life???”
I want to make one thing clear. You might find yourself not reading my posts or deleting my posts at times. Please do not feel guilty for doing that (not that I have any right to tell you how to feel). The purpose of my posts is to promote engagement, positivity, and support for us to continue acting and engaging others. I do not want my posts in any way to make you feel bad about yourself. That is defeating my purpose 100%.
Kelly reminded me that you can change your notifications for this Substack to not get emails if that makes this more manageable.
So, if you are not reading some of my posts because you are feeling overwhelmed, I want you to know that it is ok. These are very difficult times for many, and sadly, things will get worse before they get better. We are all doing what we can. I am here to nudge folks to take more action and celebrate our combined action to help us know we are something bigger than ourselves. The fact that you subscribed to this Substack shows you care and want to make a difference. We are all here for each other and in this fight together. You also have other things going on in your life. This fight cannot always be at the forefront of your mind. We also need to take care of ourselves in these hard times.
I just felt I needed to say that.
In closing, I want to share two clips, one from Mark Ma, that made me giggle.
