As I came in from feeding horses and chickens I saw all this beauty in the misty drizzly damp evening light. I wish I could instill the peace found in those moments in the hearts of every human being. All the ugly division and the energy it saps is so unnecessary.
Don’t let those who don’t know your name or your story and have never truly given a thought to your well being rob the relationships you have built over the years through shared experiences and camaraderie with those who have. Look around the here and now and appreciate what you bring to each other’s table in the big and small ways, the kind gestures over the years, even the small gestures. It is not in the party affiliations, it’s not in the politicians or those who fan the flames of division and hate. America’s greatness is in each of us, in how we rally together, overcome adversity, how we treat and respect each other and work together.
Peace be with us all –
