rivkaI'm not doing very well.
I'm crying at work.
Thoughts of miscarriage keep crossing my mind. Not as in, wanting to have one, but as in, how could the baby possibly live through this?
I know that's crazy.
But when the majority of my fellow Americans have given their stamp of approval to the architects of Abu Ghraib, where can I find hope? How can I be a parent in this world?

Date: 2004-11-04 06:51 am (UTC)I was born during the Nixon administration as well, and my father is oppressively conservative in many ways. I passed out literature for the Democrats at the polls on Tuesday. Living in Montgomery County, MD (heavily Democrat) gave me some false hope - I saw so many thumbs-ups and smiles.
I'm teaching two Yoga classes this evening. I'm hoping that the concentrated power of my students' energy will help me to heal, just as I am hoping that my teaching helps them.
