Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

by my favorite poet, Mary Oliver

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

I am watching speeches from the Women's Marches

I am in awe, and overwhelmed.


I saw someone's personal video from the Denver March.  The speaker asked how many people in the audience had been a victim of, or knew someone who had been a victim of, sexual assault or rape.  Nearly every hand went up!!! Every hand.
     "This is what locker room talk looks like.  This is the impact of boys will be boys.  This is where it stops."
