#newsamehope / 3.17.20

What is new in the last 24 hours?

  • Well, the world. The world keeps being new, and then it gets new again, and then it’s new in a different way.

  • Ohio is freeing many folks who are incarcerated, and Cook County Jail is starting to.

  • Geranium is the best Mrs. Meyers hand soap scent. Who knew?

What is the same?

  • The sun is damn good at making an entrance.

  • Messing around with acrylic paint is a delight.

  • I don’t want to fold my laundry when I take it out of the dryer.

What is the hope?

  • I might instead ask where the hope is... in the hours of conversation that unspooled yesterday - on the phone with voices and across the screen in texts... in renewed connections with the friends we’ve always loved but haven’t always told... in the quiet streets that speak of people honoring a collective mission and a mutual goal...
