I live in LA. It’s been tough to see innocent people hurt here and around the globe. I feel entirely powerless reading the news. I feel entirely powerless about climate change. My future is bleak to say the least.
I wanted to do something, but nothing felt big enough.
So I tried to ignore it. I buried my head in the sand and hoped that somehow someone would save the world. But it still ate away in the back of my mind.
I had to do something to feel better.
I went to protests. I started going to city council meetings and giving my opinion. I joined a few local advocacy organizations. I volunteered to feed the homeless.
I feel a bit better.
