I can’t be a pessimist because I’m alive. To be a pessimist means that you have agreed that human life is an academic matter, so I’m forced to be an optimist. I’m forced to believe that we can survive whatever we must survive.
James Baldwin
This is sustaining me.
And we will have to... survive whatever we must survive, as guardedly Optimistic as we can be.
I want to be optimistic, but I'm pretty depressed!
Survival means four more years of massive self-care for me.
Thank you for this.
