Love #6: How to Be a Better Human / Sara Lynne Puotinen
Hold space for pain, anger, confusion.
Make hope happen for others.
Open the door for love, close it in hate’s face.
Wear boots, a lot of wool — scarves, and mittens. Bring extras to share.
Believe in small acts: they matter.
Demand the exit of ICE from our beautiful cities.
Loe #7: At the Heart of Everything / Sara Lynne Puotinen
At the heart of everything:
care, dignity, human rights.
Every body is worthy,
every neighbor is important,
every government that does harm
should be stopped.
