I realized today that all the good news didn't make me less tired.
Literally years of dealing with a flood of negative crazy hateful stuff coming at us at breakneck speed every single day takes a toll.
The new reasons for hope are great but it's going to take a minute to adjust.
Summer says that she understands.
I thank her because being close to her brings my blood pressure down and my hopes up. Her limitless capacity for joy and love helps everything that ails me.
She gives me the "awe shucks" I'm so embarrassed look but I mean every word.
We watch the sun disappear together.
