Some days, weeks, longer, Feels like we’re slogging through. Keep a little smile on the face, head down to the grindstone, thankful for what we have, Undertone though?

Live With It
Decisions you make, Live with it. Late supper time with the kids, Live with it. Last minute shopping for school clothes, Live with it. No TV after dinner, Live with it. Sub-optimal departure from a 20-year war, It sucks, There’s no good time, it turns out, Live with it.
Always Together
Soak up the weekend, soak up together.

Entering Xanadu, 1982
The song, the music…but then the words… “To live within the Pleasure Dome, decree by Kubla Khan…as the last immortal man…” Never to live in this way, isolated, alone, even in paradise, For I would choose, do choose, to live and struggle and love with others, together, That is my preference, my mantra, my eternal …
What’s In Front, Behind
Yerba Buena Gardens, San Francisco. Very cool, water-feature experiential monument of sorts to Dr. King. And these words were just what I needed. “ The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but rather where he stands in times of challenge and controversy.” Amen, amen.
