Thank you for articulating so well how we can bring change to our world. I love your phrase " bend the moral arc of the universe". I have always focused on what I can do in my "sphere of influence" and taught my boys (now in their 30s) to do the same. We do have influence, in the choices we make, how we spend our money, and how and when we speak up. Numbness is a reaction to overwhelm. Staying grounded is essential; breathing in Spring helps me maintain my balance. Thank you for another thoughtful writing, Anne. I look forward to being with you this way every week. xox

With all the trauma and drama in the news and every where you look and read, it’s hard to stay centered. The shootings, the tornadoes, weather changes, inditement, political rancor, etc. I needed to see pretty colors together, the emergence of spring and the greens and pinks coming form the earth. Thank you. I can only say and advise to not become complacent, not to hide in my knitting, but to stay informed and in tune with the world around me and to personally take peaceful action to influence and make the world a kinder place. To talk with people, to share joy and look for the emerging spring and rebirth of the earth as your yarn colors promise.
