You did a wonderful just flowing back and forth … you had us by surprise so many times … it’s really going well and oh, and then you take us out … and it’s up again …. I can’t even say which one is better, coffee prince or que sera sera, both of them sure have a different ratings but believe me, both of them are one level.

While I’ve often felt both angry and terrified about the actions of the current administration, my heart and my experience tell me that along with the necessity of direct political action, there is nothing like personal story to affirm common experience and build bridges, and that sharing my personal story will help move us in that healing direction.
