So, tomorrow is our last day of classes. It's hard to believe we are already here. Thank you @CSHSeniorSem for the amazing discussions, thougtful moments, and potato-related shenanigans. ❤️
"The life in the animal and the life in us is the same."
@hartchd sent me this amazing lecture! I really recommend checking it out. It's lengthy, but I watched it in one sitting.

"Let be what is, let be what isn't, it's a natural world in which we're living, and if you let it alone, it will surely grow"--The Oh Hellos. A lyric from one of my favorite bands. I always thought it spoke to my deep love of nature.

Is it possible to forgive without breeding resentment for the person we are forgiving? Or is it this very resentment that makes the forgiveness worthwile, and gives value to our difficult action?
I was not in class today but I wanted to share something my dad told me that reminds me of Fr. Boyal. "The opposite of fear is not courage. It's compassion. Being afraid while having compassion is like trying to sneeze with your eyes open. Impossible" #tattoosontheheart#sensem
Q1: I think, quite simply, kinship is respect. It is an acknowledgment that we are all human beings, and therefore deserve to take up the space we take up. #sensemchat
@CSHSeniorSem A1: I think he is making a point that small acts are in their own right a kind of protest. For example, choosing to befriend someone who is outcast, I think, is just as effective as preaching about why people should not be outcast. #Sensemchat
A4: I think Homeboy Indestries also embodies goal 4, building community. Fr. Greg seems to work with people who have in the past made community through violence, so, in essence, he is working towards building a new community of love and kinship #sensemchat
The wonderful Ms. Cynthia Scharf from @greenfaithworld came to speak to my group at the Earth Day workshop today. She said, "The climate crisis is not a political issue. It's a moral issue."
