Thinking lots today.
The weather is dreary.
I feel the relationships of people I care about starting to fray from the constant assault on their well being. Frustrations are not always hidden well.
The thing is we should remember we are stronger and more able to weather the weather together.
Being the elder I find myself in a good place to deliver the reminder.
I am not shy about bringing up the fact the Wailaki part of our family has been surviving against all odds for a really long time. Not a small achievement.
I love my family dearly.
