It is noble to lend some of your finite energy to the global/national struggles of our moment.

It is also true that you don't own these problems alone.

Humanity is a great stone. Rest your fingertips against it and press toward justice. Do not dash your body against the rock.

Dark times are dark because we fear for the life we love. They are a shadow on a bright meadow. It is wise to be aware of the shadow. It misses the point entirely if you forget to take joy in the meadow itself.
