Think Globally, Act Locally


With all that is going on in the world right now, things can feel overwhelming. 
It's important to focus on what it is that each of us can do to make things better, in our immediate vicinity.  
Whatever that is, do it. 

Action breeds hope.

A few suggestions: 
Speak truth to power. 
Make a sign for a local protest. Refuse to buy things in plastic (easier said than done, but worth the effort!) 
Repair instead of replace. 
Some of us have been harping on these things for decades and while it seems that we often take one step forward and two steps back, take heart in knowing, you are not alone. We have each other.   
Use your powers for good. 

Stay hopeful. Stay strong. 

Ox,
