Many people have layers in the way their story turns out, don’t they? It’s up to us, often with help from Heather and others (some right here), to sort out what is true and what we want to support into the future. Those our age cannot “fix” everything but with the help of heroes like Stacey Abrams and every neighborhood door knocker or foster child home provider, we CAN keep the doors of democracy open for the next generation to lead through. The common sense open mindedness of my grandchildren and their friends inspires hope in my heart.

Be careful trusting in "common sense". Intuition would be more reliable because it involves the heart. Common sense depends upon rational thought. We can too easily rationalize all ugly and base choices leading to unintended consequences.
