When we're born, we only know our parents and family, the people that feed us and care for us. As we learn about the world, we meet more family, and friends, and community members. We go to school and meet our peers, our teachers, our authority figures. Every new person we meet is an opportunity to expand our circles, but we don't always invite people in. I was brought up to be kind to everyone, to share what I had freely, and be of service whenever I saw a job needing done. Right now we need leaders who are more concerned with helping, and who are willing to bring more people into their circles. The politics of exclusion, bullying, and denying aid has to stop.

I want to help folks, and I hope you'll help as well.​
