Essay: Redefining hope in 2025Share A Story - “How do you find the strength and hope to keep going?”
"We have chosen to believe that the harm inflicted on us as the status quo does not have to be carried through to the next generation. And many brilliant allies have joined the cause. There has been important work completed in research, advocacy, support, fundraising, and awareness. Our efforts have made a difference, but they’ve also worn us down. We’ve done our best to rally for reinforcements. Dare we hope that 2025 is the year the cavalry is coming?"

Magazine: "Who am I in the nothingness?""Without work, without study, without labels of what I did, I had no language for who I was." - Eliza Charley
"...When the uncertain and the unplanned came knocking to clear out our lives (in March 2020), it was understandably confronting. Yet rather than embrace the emptiness that parked itself in our hearts and living rooms, we tended to fill it up immediately...
If you saw that Shakespeare meme about writing King Lear during the plague - it made me want to scream.. This ever-intensifying push to find significance in all this tragedy - to make it mean something - was hauntingly familiar to me." Publication: Soul Tread Magazine, Ed 3, Winter 2021 |
