Dear Julie, your thoughtful, creative and well-researched essay is spot on. We need to let go of what separates us and concentrate on what unites us as humans. Regeneration of our discouraged hearts is critical if we want to make sure we have a democracy and a viable planet for our grandchildren.

I love the links you added...just could keep delving deeper into the topic, but alas, need to also work on my "to do" list.

PS I think I saw you on the trail coming back into Gold River a couple of mornings ago.

Bobbie/ thank you so much! Yes, our hearts need to stay open and responsive. It’s a tough job, but nothing feels more important to me at this time. I’ll keep my eyes open for you on the trails!
