Keeping balanced by riding horses, walking with dogs, trying desperately to love humans as they are, and believing there is always love and kindness to be found.
Though things are easing, impacted neighbors are only just beginning to find work and get their feet under them. Some have lost their primary income earner to abduction. Even a small donation gives us all hope! Thank you!

🌿 Palm Sunday was a protest. And this #PalmSunday2026, Christians nationwide are taking action to reclaim our faith.

Our faith calls us to spread love and care, not greed and cruelty.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."
