At The Boston Women's March For America

Oh friends, the Boston Women's March was the best affair that ever could cause got happened yesterday! After weeks of tears as well as heartbreak, sadness as well as confusion, gathering on Boston Common amongst roughly 200,000 other people was only what my pump as well as mortal needed. It was the commencement fourth dimension since election nighttime that I'd felt hopeful. It was the commencement fourth dimension since election nighttime that I felt similar I could breathe again.

As shortly every bit nosotros arrived at the Common y'all could only experience the positive unloose energy all around! Boston was total of honey as well as kindness that solar daytime (and a whole lot of pinkish pussyhats)! After a few quick pictures we made our agency onto the Common. The bounding main of people stretchered for every bit far every bit the optic could see. People were all around, approximately were fifty-fifty perched inward the trees, others on approximately nearby bleachers. Last nosotros knew 90,000 had registered to go, even as well as then this felt similar far to a greater extent than than 90,000!


The speeches began, the cheering began as well as the heaven began to clear. It had been a somewhat overcast solar daytime when nosotros arrived (though non virtually every bit mutual frigidity as well as gloomy grey every bit the solar daytime before) as well as even as well as then every bit Mayor Walsh introduced Elizabeth Warren I couldn't assistance but reveal how the heaven brightened to a lovely shade of blue, as well as how the white puffy clouds moved inward to supplant the grey ones. It's every bit if Mother Nature was right there amongst us making her feelings known, too!


Maura Healey, Massachusetts Attorney General, summed the solar daytime as well as the crowd upwardly best, "this is what honey trumping abhor looks like!" she proclaimed. The crowd went wild! 


After the People's Oath nosotros began to deed off the Common as well as on to the street to commence the March. Everyone was as well as then sort as well as considerate of each other. In a grouping that size y'all await to last pushed as well as shoved, as well as even as well as then none of that occurred. People were as well as then polite as well as caring as well as mindful. It was absolutely incredible!

We didn't march the entire route, but nosotros did walk a expert portion of it, earlier cutting through the Public Garden to brand our agency dorsum to the bus. We had decided to leave of absence a niggling on the early on side as well as then that nosotros could last ahead of the crowds who would last trying to exit of the metropolis later on this amazing day. We had made it inward to Boston inward tape time, as well as were hoping the trip dorsum to Framingham would last only every bit quick as well as tardily (it was).

As nosotros all boarded the double-decker y'all could experience how everyone's spirits had been lifted. This march was indeed expert for the soul! We returned to Plymouth Church refreshed,  rejuvenated and hit to cause got any side past times side steps involve to last taken to proceed the momentum going! It was an incredible day. It was a historic day. And I am as well as then really glad non solely to cause got been a usage of it but also to cause got shared it amongst such an amazing grouping of women from our incredible organized faith community (and our wonderful senior pastor, Greg, too). It was an experience I volition behavior amongst me always. xo
