These Two Ladies
A poem; A fateful lasting image triggers humility, and hope
medium.com
As long as there’s a flicker of light, there’s hope. From my work life, most reoccurring adverse impacts on process are arrogance and complacency. Humbleness is a strength. Democracy takes effort. Fight on.

Nice try, but if you run up huge deficits by exempting big corporations and billionaires from taxes, markets will react.
People collectively worth trillions, and corporations worth tens of trillions, and corrupt Trump, pay virtually no taxes.

On this Labor Day, while we may pause and reflect on continuing collective hardening efforts in our protest, views, voice, confirming for many of us who we identify as Americans, include time outdoors; breath, clear head, reset, recharge, reconfirm, stay calm and move on…

There’s beauty everywhere, even in dry, baked, dusty desert environs, striking pose. Japanese phrase, wabi-sabi; natural beauty seen in everything including imperfections.
Beauty in eye of beholder. With bad happenings, get perspective in nature. Stay calm, carry on.

Random… a photog opened a new world for me by exposing me (pun) to light; my perspective is richer. Natural light effect is life’s art. I scratched this little ditty (not sure why my prose journey typically underlying is love, a longing, a mystery),
