Thank you for this thoughtful piece, Sue. It reminds me of some of the things Brené Brown talks about in her work, especially in her book "Braving the Wilderness". We need to speak truth to power and learn to be civil with those we disagree with. We need more ways to come together in common places, but in today's world we have to fight hard to keep any common places.
Common places are getting harder to find, I agree. I for one am surprise and dismayed by my short fuse and impatience with people, so that's on me and a place to work on in order to make a place safe for others, and in turn myself. Hope all is well with you and yours.
