On Wednesday, the White House press secretary, Sean Spicer, justified revoking the transgender school guidance by saying Mr. Trump is a “firm believer in states’ rights.” This inglorious justification has been deployed repeatedly by those on the wrong side of history in earlier civil rights battles. It was used to fight abolitionists, the women’s suffrage movement, the repeal of Jim Crow laws and, most recently, same-sex marriage.

As the federal government turns its back on transgender students, there is much that local officials, school administrators and parents can do to foster inclusive and safe learning environments. The federal government’s shift is no reason to abandon a set of common-sense guidelines that were informed by years of research by medical professionals.

This should be a clarifying moment for the L.G.B.T. movement. Mr. Trump has offered no evidence that he is committed to advancing L.G.B.T. rights. Unless and until that changes, safeguarding the remarkable progress this community has made over the past decade will fall on ordinary Americans.

—New York Times Editorial Board, Opinion Page, from President Trump Breaks a Promise on Transgender Rights

"Iron, left in the rain
And fog and dew,
With rust is covered. -Pain
Rusts into beauty too....

- Mary Caroline Davies

Our pain is ours. Some of it we have earned, the
rest not, and it is still our own. When we fight our pain,
we fight the experience of our humanness, and we
lose ourselves in the process. A life without pain is
a life of nonliving. Our pain lets us know and come
to understand the full meaning of being human. If
we fight the normal experience of our pain, we lose
the possibility of experiencing the process of its
rusting "into beauty too."

We don't need to seek pain, but when it is inevitably
there, we have the possibility of something
new entering our lives.

MY PAIN is a possibility. It is not a liability or a punishment.

- Anne Wilson Schaef

Whatever you do, try your best to keep a big perspective. Don't let the worries and concerns of the day dominate your thoughts and weigh you down.

It is important to understand that you get what you think about, whether you want it or not. And chronic thoughts about unwanted things invite, or ask for, matching experiences. - Esther Hicks
