Let’s talk about boundaries vs. ultimatums
You can learn a lot about relational health from watching The Bachelor. Okay, that's not exactly true. I don't watch it for life lessons. I'm been watching for years because it's pure, cringey, schadenfreude escapism. But there are so many times I am yelling back at the screen because what's happening in the show is such a blatant example of relational immaturity. In this particular season, there was a young woman named Maddie who is very religious, and who has made the decision to wait . . .
“Try to have pity on the myriad of old people you could exterminate.”
Last night I read a twitter thread from Dr Silvia Stringhini that chilled me to the bone in regards to the seriousness of coronavirus. She had translated an open letter that was written by Dr. Daniele Macchini, an ICU doctor in Italy, prefacing it by mentioning the sense of false ecurity that seems to be prevalent in areas that have not yet had an outbreak.

The conundrum with an ornate feather | On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from July 2009.
On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from July 2009. I have grossly underestimated my four-year-old. We are having some issues with sleep in our house. People are often asking me how Karis is sleeping. And for a newborn, she is sleeping okay. It's the other two that decided to up the ante since Karis was born.
