a new direction

part of a daily blog is that you do it every day. still blog has never missed a day, in over eight years, through good and bad days, both personally and globally. i plan to continue every day, because that’s what i do, and because solutions to injustice have to fit into daily life eventually or they will never work as solutions. but don’t think for a minute that the placid exterior of this daily exercise in peacefulness is hiding anything but outrage and grief and exhaustion at the latest expression of how the powerful in this society get away, literally, with murder, while the less powerful must always, always, find a way to absorb that reality into their lives. i hope this is the beginning of some form of end to that. but until then, i want to be unambiguous about which side i stand on.
