I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.
I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.
I want to be soft. I want to be steady.
Hi everyone. This isn’t related to Heather’s post today (directly), but I just finished reading Caste: Origins of Our Discontents, by Isabel Wilkerson, and I want to encourage this bright and caring group to read it. It made a deep impression on me; my mind and heart are full of the stories, concepts, and history I read. Has anyone else read it, and what did you think…? Thanks 😊
Just finished it yesterday. It was eye-opening. I have much soul-searching to do now. So much of the caste-based privilege I have had gone unrecognized until Ms. Wilkerson pointed it out to me. It was also so very upsetting to learn how Nazi Germany patterned so many of its laws against non-Aryans after America’s Jim Crow laws. A very disturbing book that we all should read and take to heart.
