Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

by my favorite poet, Mary Oliver

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

In case you need a smile today....and we all do....






A riot is the language of the unheard.



“And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear? ... It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice and humanity.”


― Martin Luther King Jr.

Zeitgeist

     I get a Word of the Day email daily.  One day this week the word was Zeitgeist: The defining spirit or mood of a particular period of history as shown by the ideas and beliefs of the time.
     Might this be our zeitgeist?

     Interesting, thought provoking thought for today.  And I bet it has you googling George Washington's teeth when you're done.  I did.
