Resistance is a marathon, not a sprint. Sometimes we have to pause and focus on our own resilience. That isn’t apathy, it’s essential! The key is to make a plan for getting back to the fight. Rest regularly, and have a plan to get re-involved. Some ideas:
Go to a museum. Visit a park. Ride the bus. If we don’t use public resources, they look expendable. When we appreciate them, we stand up for them. Pay admission, or check your city for “public access” dates. (In Seattle, that’s the first Thursday of each month.)
Support a local farm: buy fall produce, go apple-picking or stop off for local honey or pickles to gift this holiday season.
