Writers like you give me optimism for humanity. Not hope, which is so short-lived and temporary. Not faith, which is based on a belief in something intangible and unobservable. Optimism, which is grounded in a reality where good things can happen because, goddammit, it *should* happen, and there's people doing the work to make it real. Thanks for making something so profound and distant seem like something we can grasp onto now, today.
That means so much, and I thank you. I have had a rough time keeping this place going and the harder it gets the more optimistic I become. I think it’s a survival strategy!
He is my buddy, Flash. He is a wild donkey that got in the year of COVID from an auction where kids and adults train would horses and donkeys for auction. Some people keep them, but this adorable kid trained Flash and he wasn't bringing much in the auction. My sister was there and bid him up until he came home. Google teens and Oregon mustangs. Super cool program to place excess wild horses with people who treasure them.
Inspired ideas knitted together with honesty, into a pullover of hope. Of possibility. Loved it. Thank you for making me take a different angle of vision, to squint my eyes, and imagine differently. Kudos, Jenna.
Like i said, I don’t necessarily believe in any of this stuff or understand it, but I do know anyone claiming they understand religion, time, or the universe is not a smart person 😂

Whoa, incredible. I feel this deeply. I am rooted in my place, living out loud and also listening to all that came before.
Thank you for this beautiful gift.

Thank you for commenting! It means so much to hear anything from readers after putting so much of myself into something ☺️
"So I guess that's time, but we have no idea what the hell is going on." This made me laugh out loud!
Thank you!!
I was not accusing you of such? Apologies if that’s how it was taken, I was speaking about politicians and evangelicals ?
Oh I see, you thought I was commenting on your grandma and I was talking about the essay’s antagonist
Honored ☺️
