 Day 1: checking in on those who feel it first Day 2: watching a silly movie with my kids Day 3: taking my daughter to give blood Day 4: going to a school play Day 5: stocking up at the farmer's market Day 6: worshipping with a community of people with mixed legal status Day 7: mourning for a child who was lost Day 8: calling an elder and making her laugh

How to begin.

Every day, the commitment is to do something.  Some days, it may be honoring the dead. Some days, it may be planting for generations yet to come. Some days, it may just involve being kind to the neighbors.  Wrote a letter to a friend behind bars. Made a call to an elder. Hugged my children. But every day. That is my promise and this is my documentation for the next 1550 days.
