A hard lesson that I’m still learning is you don’t have to engage with the bullshit every minute. It’s ok to step back and take care of yourself. All the horror going on around us is exhausting, depressing, maddening. But we’re not all responsible all the time for fixing all the bad things. Take time to enjoy the good
