Astute observation, Marian. Thanks for writing.

One of the time-honored instructions is to make sure we put the oxygen mask on ourselves first before helping others. We must remember how self-care will be as fortification for the important work ahead of us.

Now, if I could remember the flight attendant’s instructions about what to do in case of emergencies.

Yes, I read that NYT article, too. Very depressing.

The situation is beyond upsetting. I don’t want to be in a plane pilotted by Trump. Yesterday I read a NYTimes piece that was made up of snippets of interviews with women (mostly white) who voted for Trump. I had hoped it would be comforting, but I found it even more disturbing as I read about their misguided expectations. They voted for change, but not for what I fear we have coming.
