Don’t even talk to me unless you are
- paying attention,
- thoughtful,
- honest,
- interested in others’ responses,
- open-minded,
- self-aware,
- authentic,
- friendly,
- committed to helping yourself and others survive,
- wearing a mask in public places and otherwise following social distancing orders,
- hopeful,
- realistic,
- able to laugh at yourself,
- able to laugh at me, and
- kind to animals.
DO even talk to me about what you see in this post.












I can’t even talk about how anxiety-provoking it is when an animal is sick, because they can’t even talk to you about how they’re feeling and I can’t talk to Oscar about the ultrasound he’s having today.
Are these two people even talking to each other?
.
Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda can really talk about friendship.
.
Don’t even talk to me unless you accept my appreciation and thanks that you showed up today, exactly the way you are.
