I'm not great at spiritual discipline but I've loved being part of this. A blessed Easter to Easter people.
For the last day of lent and this wonderful #40DaysOfGoodShit idea from Nadja Bolz Weber I name this precious little community here on Bluesky that sticked together for pictures, texts and gratitude as my good 💩 of today. Thank you all for the past weeks and all your contributions ❤️
#40daysofgoodshit Day 40: I made it! First time ever sticking with a Lenten plan. Finding one good thing every day in my life was perfect prep for Easter. Hallelujah! Looking for light in a dark time.
My daughter and grandson are here. We are going to the Ukrainian bakery/cafe for lunch. Good 💩!
I wish I knew the name of the blogger who pointed out years ago how perfect Wendell Berry's poem "No, no there is no going back" is for #GoodFriday. With thanks to Maura Singer for posting it.

What a thought to bring us to the end of lent:
..."this is not a God who causes suffering. This is a God who bears suffering. I need to believe that God does not initiate suffering; God transforms it.”
Today I left a chocolate bar in my pocket and discovered that liquified chocolate-caramel can be squeezed out of its wrapping and eaten in the manner of Gogurt.

You can't tell Vedder he isn't a lapdog. There is nothing like feeling the warmth of his fur and giving him a big hug to release allllllll kinds of stress.
A group of protesters stand in the sunshine in front of a tree, holding signs and small American flags. The signs: "THE CHEESEBURGERS ARE TAKING TOO LONG TO WORK," a drawing of Popeye with "I'VE HAD ALL I CAN STAND AND I CAN'T STANDS NO MORE!!" an illustration of Trump as a clown with "NO KINGS IN AMERICA—AND NO ORANGE CLOWNS EITHER" and "JUST ANOTHER ANTIFASCIST HILLBILLY FOR PEACE"

Let's nip this myth right in the bud. For every one of us of a certain age, we remember hearing this. Break the cycle now. Abuse in any form IS NOT LOVE.

#40daysofgoodshit today was my little dancer (in green here) finding out she gets to move up to the next level of ballet next fall 🥳 we were very anxious about this since she auditioned two weeks ago, and it's a big relief.
Electric red on the underside of a bunch of dark clouds for a vibrant Colorado sunset. Fluffy yellow ones float up into a fading sky.
For #40daysofgoodshit we have this glorious, pull over to the side of the road worthy sunset. And the phone camera never does it justice. To quote my 11yo: This is why we invented fancy cameras.
Closing in on the end of #40DaysofGoodShit, so let's go back to the gym!

I came across this post from 2016 - how relevant it is today.
“In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?”
