I haven't had much time to post lately but I just wanted to say...

I feel hopeful for the future of our world for the first time in well over a decade.

...And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be.


I feel it coming.

people seem to be waking up.

there seems to be a progressive populism building and I am hopeful that POTUS will get a congress to work with for his last 2 years.

I feel like the tide is turning and there is an opportunity to make the next wave last for while and bring about some solid, long-term positive changes.

And I it made me feel that voices of the broken hearted are starting to be heard. That song always makes me emotional - as an atheist converted from a youth of Catholicism, and having a deceased mom who was a true Gospel following Christian, the Mother Mary image still holds some real power too.

Have you noticed that our president just keeps plugging away at that multitasking thing of his?
