In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Remember that posting on social media doesn't actually accomplish much of anything, although sharing info can educate each other. We're preaching to the choir here. The real question is, "What are you going to do in the 'real world'? Anger is no better than overwhelm if it diverts us from action.
