This week we marked a year since the election of President Trump. This past year has not been my strongest year of blogging, but it has been my strongest year of activism. I've been intentional in the last year about building my own capacity and the capacity of others. I've focused on the William Penn quote, "Let us then try what love can do." I've participated in workshops, trainings, and marches. I've pushed myself beyond my comfort zone in my advocating for a commitment to honoring the light of ALL people.
My advocacy work leading up to the election led people to see me as someone who was lighting the way forward, and I have tried my best to live up to those expectations. I'm not new to protests or lobbying, but I am new to advocacy as a way of life. And it's been joyful.
