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.

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

“How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!” ― Maya Angelou


Happy International Day of Women.

     We shouldn't need one day to remind us of the value of women around the world.  We need to celebrate them every day of the year.


     On a related note, I'm sure you're familiar with this song either from the Oscars or from seeing the movie, but it has been stuck on repeat in my brain all week.  I wake up during the night with it there. It does seem somewhat appropriate for celebrating all women and all people today, plus there are worse songs to have stuck in your head.  It makes me want to dance.

We are bursting through the barricades.
We are warriors.
Yeah, that's what we've become.
We are glorious.

There is nothing we're not worthy of.
