Observation on the Journey

Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. 

Maybe it’s about un-becoming everything that isn’t really you, 

so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place. 

 Paul Coelho

Sometimes The Cover is Not the Book

There are a lot of people who are confused and hurting right now. We want to believe that people are good, and will help us to live the life we deserve. That is the cover of the book, showing us a glowing future if only we believe. When we are let down terribly, it is embarrassing to have to admit that we were taken in by charlatans. 

If there are people like that around you, please be kind. It is so easy to be taken in by someone selling snake oil. Everyone then needs to work together to make things right and make sure that those who have lied and made fools of us cannot keep doing it. 

The Widening Gulf

It has been a month of revelations - to say the least. 

Some might say it began with a 'swearing in', but for me, it truly began with a church service that went sideways for one entitled group and cut right to the heart of the main issue for the rest of us. 

Jerome Stueart created the work you see here. 

It is called The Gulf of Empathy. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde asked for mercy and we all know what the response has been. 

Visit Jerome's general webpage or this one for 'merch' related to the painting.

Thank you Cassidy for that link to such a perfect song. We need to show mercy and care for all who are now suffering, no matter how they voted.
