Ultimately, we are all everyday people. Every single one of us. If we could see that more clearly, everything would shift. Keep fighting the good fight, Jena!

Thank you, Margot, and I agree. We are all everyday people, each with a unique contribution to make. If we would just stop comparing, competing, and teaching our kids that some are better or more deserving than others then we might finally come into balance. Your beauty and gifts shouldn’t detract from mine and vice versa. This is a personal peeve of mine :-)

I fully concur, we do far too much judging and comparing and not enough accepting and loving. We live in this linear, patriarchal construct, but it is an illusion. The myth of competition is a powerful one.

Just meant to say the election isn't done, so we must message every day! Can't take anything for granted no matter how it looks.

Gather up and come and see

Vote for the one who sets and keeps us free

The one who just lets us be who we are

Vote blue and raise the bar

A vote for me and you

As we share resources

And, quibble about discourses

Somethings just gotta be free

Reproductive rights and keeping the world safe, please

I enjoyed your lovely post. It was inspirational for me. Sent on to Twitter for all to see.
