"Forget the bull in the China shop, there's a china doll in the bull pen."- my fav song from the 2018 documentary RBG Few women who've lived on planet earth have been as committed to helping others as Queen Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I am deeply saddened by this loss, for everyone. Most of all, my little girls. Who know the story of Ruth's tireless work ethic and commitment to the rights of both men and women, to nursing he husband through cancer while working AND getting her law degree, to raising 2 children, from numerous books weve read about her. Rest in Peace Queen, and thank you for everything you did for us on earth. You will always be a true north. Let's all give a hearty Ugly Cry for this epic ? tonight.
