Love this- and great reminder like others said- be proactive and give attention but not to the point it steals our joy. Thank you!

You make such an important point with trying to not let this all takeover your life.

I spent a good amount of time during my young kiddos’ lives unraveling as I kept learning how the mainstream system was - truly - not acting in the best interest of my kids.

It was the first time I had learned of this corruption, and it seemed to creep into nearly everything. I was both horrified and so, so sad.

But now, I’ve come to settle on what I CAN control - it’s not perfect, but it’s better than nothing.

Most importantly, this focus has taken me out of the all-encompassing funk that’s an outcome of learning about this level of corruption - which, when undirected, doesn’t really serve anyone.

The focus on local and smaller has been a life-giving mental shift.

Thanks for another great article!
