I feel the same way @CoreyFarrenkopf All I want to do is write abd walk in the pitch pine forest and by the salt marsh with my energetic golden retriever. I don’t want to learn to mend or knit. Paying attention and telling about it is enough.
I keep seeing all these writers talking about craft this and craft that, but I have no idea how to sew. I can’t crochet or knit…can’t I just write my weird little stories? I don’t have the time to pick up another hobby :)

I have experienced this as well working with migrants.
NO ONE WANTS TO LIVE IN AN EMERGENCY SHELTER. But 121 Massachusetts house members voted to limit how long people can stay in emergency shelters. This isn’t just about money, it’s about our morals and who we are as a Commonwealth. Shameful #mapoli

Let’s be 100% clear: any Massachusetts town meeting using the language of “invasion” and not immediately shutting it down is courting racism. This isn’t about housing density & MBTA. It’s about hatred. #mapoli

The state’s new housing law challenges Massachusetts’ long, proud history of letting towns control their own zoning, and resistance is growing fast.

Today, parts of the Church remember Saint Porphyry of Gaza. Seek quiet where you can to hear where God is calling you. Remember the poor, the sick, the dying. Remember Gaza this day.

Beloved, ministry is the best, hardest work there is. We accompany people in the most tender, intimate moments of life for no other reason than to show Love. If any part of you asks, "Is this for me?" Press into it. Consider it. Some days I can barely believe the honor.

Let's say this aloud: 300 army cots is not a home. This picture should break our hearts. It's better than a blanket on Logan Airport floor, it's still terrible. Lord, forgive us. Thank you, John Tlumacki & every journalist who lets your heart break, too https://t.co/Gvb5fABLFY

"We are in a state of emergency and none of us should stand by while women, children, and families sleep outside, or in an airport,” said state Senator Liz Miranda @LizForBoston. Amen.

Love that there are dinosaurs on 6a

I know today is a federal holiday, but I feel like every Black colleague ends up doing double and triple labor on #MLKDay. Petition for a day of rest for Black folx *after* MLK day.

For every Black person, woman, queer person, immigrant serving an institution, you’d best focus on yourself and your kin because that institution sure is not. #Harvard #ClaudineGay “… focus on the institution rather than any individual.”

I wonder what would happen if we Christians took this violence against women seriously as we celebrate a pregnant woman this Advent…

To clarify: there’s a lot of intentional misinformation here about the new Martin Luther King & Coretta Scott King memorial here in Boston. First, the executive director is Black. Second, the sculptor & design team are Black. Your opinion may vary but these are facts.
