I am finding, as a woman, it is hard for me to remain focused on any given task, today. My mind, heart and spirit are with Ms. Christine Ford and what she is having to endure.
I started having to limit my saturation of news about a year ago. I've been shocked to my core and angry as a hungry bear, since 2016. I had to take a sabbatical from CNN. Haha. Yet, I live with a Brit that is totally fascinated by American politics. While at home, he has the news on. While on the go, he has the news on yammering in his ear. (Or he's listening to a soccer match) Long story short, he keeps me apprised. Otherwise, I start cursing like a sailor at the television screen and threatening bodily harm to the benefactor of my bitter angst.
Long story short, with or without him in the lounge room giving me sound bites of info, this hearing today, has already saturated my entire being. On the road driving the Hubs to his lab work appointment, Ms. Ford in my head. Shopping with the Hubs, later, Ms. Ford in my head. On here, trying to gin and spin a credible poem, Ms. Ford in my head. Can't write. Can only focus my feminine energy through the universe betwixt and between us and direct it towards her, in support. I know half the population, at least, feels the same way I do, today.
Hoping for justice and having faith, this is only the beginning of ripping off more veils and exposing the underbelly of many of our male "politicians", judges and people in law enforcement positions.
"We did not come this far, to only come this far."
