Sometimes I feel like those of us trying to do good are outnumbered by the forces of shortsighted greed. When I do, I try to look for inspiring news. Which is not easy. To celebrate March 31 and ignore April 1's ethos, here is something inspiring:

(For fellow misophoniacs, trigger warning of a few seconds when the reporter tries the sweet potato crunchy.)

We may feel small against the clowns of destruction, but this story reminds us that if you want to see positive change, there are no shortcuts. Be the change in any way that you can. This is the only thing that has ever built a better world. The clowns are restless, we must go beyond resisting and make peace and empower. It takes effort.

If you are struggling and your people are watching you struggle, they are NOT your people.

Anyway, we get on with things and my family member does an amazing job of supporting me by recognising actual needs, pushing hard for things that really aren't needed or easily and cheaply replaced if that changes … the same kinds of things a properly-trained #HoardingSpecialist can help with.

It was great to be able to extend on established and ongoing work with the specialist.

The additional thing my relative accomplished, though, was the deep understanding of both my limits and the workflow necessary to #mitigate #disability issues related to feeding myself more economically, and setting up and even teaching me HOW to use my rice cooker to do so.
