“The reason we face the worst is because it helps us imagine the best.” What a fantastic, hopeful read. Treat yourself to this, and then spread it around.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." Arthur C. Clarke

Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books? They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are *very good* www.thriftbooks.com

And in “I’m not as crazy as I thought and that is somehow not great news news” it turns out my crippling anxiety was mostly just intuition and that intuition was pretty spot on

Hope is never futile - it is one of the greatest forms of resistance we have.

People get all bent out of shape over the term dog parents like "dogs are NOT the same as children" and it's like no kidding I don't care if your children like me at all

Practice saying “No.” No, I will not take away that person’s dignity. No, I will not deny care. No, I will not turn against my neighbor. Go through dark times as the person you want to be when we get to the other side.
