A Note from the Hive Lead Team

How are you?
As the lead team of the Hive met today
we were overwhelmed with compassion
for you all— everyone holding so much these days!
Speaking with facilitators, members, and donors
we recognize how tiring this all is!
We feel it in our bodies too:
the difficulty prioritizing,
how uninteresting the word "unprecedented" has become,
how hungry we are all for full-body hugs,
off-the-cuff coffees, and lingering dinners together,
and the gnawing realization that,
while the election may be closing tonight,
it won't likely feel over for a good long while.
If we've done anything for the last four years it's been
to learn how to stay centered in tough situations,
to keep faith,
to seek the common good,
to find outer and inner healing,
to center voices that fight to be heard elsewhere,
to make beautiful things,
and to chose love, over and over, again and again.
We just thought you deserved a note saying,
hang in there!
We promise to stay in touch.
We've got each other.
