how it is that we are becoming numb to catastrophic events.

More branches.  and do they get filled in? or remain sketched…. how much is too much.

    The olive tree, a strong presence. Even in it’s current state, showing us how to keep going. Her bones Still but not silent.

    I”m not sure it is numb. It is grief and horror and incredible sadness. It is fear. It is incomprehensible that anyone thinks that it is okay to do this. Sometimes fear takes over for friends and family in foreign places. For partner who travels all over the world for work. For the future and what it means for the world. Sometimes it is too hard talk about. It is not knowing what to do to change it..

    Numb? Not me, but certainly more accustomed and therefore less alarmed which, in the avalanche of local and world events over the last year alone, is a good thing. Meanwhile you continue making,just being, and
    sending light into the dark places.
