A dear friend is going through terrible health problems and on Friday we were able to have a brief, front yard chat. We talked about how their future is no longer what they imagined. They said the more they resisted, the more pain they felt. That yielding is the ultimate source of peace.
As I read about the city's upcoming plans for CHOP and my neighborhood, it's hard not to worry and fret. I fled for a day or two this week, discouraged by night after night of shootings.
I'm back. Tuning in and supporting the citizen journalists. Keeping one eye on Twitch.

I want to be an ally.
I want to continue to work for positive change.
Let us look forward to what comes next.
