Let me also be clear here: I know I often fail to live up to my own standards, and I know I can never know just how bad at it I am. I try to turn the scathing touch of the caput mortuum on myself first. I know I'm not doing everything I could be doing to make the world better. I know that I'm consciously opting in many places to favor my comfort over others' survival. I recognize the limits of my own empathy. I often fail at not expecting of others what I don't do myself.

@Fuego I do a lot. I fear some days it won't be enough, but I know how much I do. I'm grateful that others respond when they see it. Thank you. You're no slouch yourself, sis. You've done an amazing amount yourself.
