Legacy media is failing to keep us informed over and over. they barely touch the surface. Thankfully, a growing cadre of independent journalists is stepping up. There's amazing reporting, commentary and record-keeping going on.

In our group (Zoom) meditation this morning, one of the women took a walk on a snowy field. We got to go with her. Silent snow.
