I have never been sure where "Red sky in the morning, sailors take warning" applies. Not here. Sunrise in Poway, CA and no storms today.

Whew! Took a lot of prep to summarize 30 weeks of Wisdom Road down to a 12 min talk, but the feedback was great! Much more to come.

If the the richest 1 percent own half the world’s wealth, and the richest one hundred people together own more than the poorest four billion, I have a very hard time seeing how anyone can argue that trickle-down economics has been anything short of disaster. #humankind #WisdomRoad

At what point will a majority of Americans realize that the radical growth in income disparity is never going to be reversed by trickle down economics? theconversation.com/soaring-weal...
Soaring wealth inequality has remade the map of American prosperity
The wealthiest areas in the US are almost 7 times richer than the poorest regions, a disparity that has nearly doubled since 1960.

Introduced by our son and daughter in law to acrylic pour painting over the holidays. Loads of fun and practically impossible to mess up. Can only imagine Acid Tests back in the day if they had these! :)

Remembering our Native brothers and sisters on this anniversary of the Wounded Knee massacre in 1890 when the US Army murdered more than 300 defenseless old men, women, and children in the snow. My several visits to the site stick with me like few other. www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/an...

Miss Booteé may have been the poorest person I interviewed on #WisdomRoad; on her porch in a poor town in one of the poorest counties in the MS Delta in the poorest state in America. But she was rich in wisdom and a joy to sit and learn from. #humankind

In San Diego, beautiful winter sunsets often preview Santa Ana winds and fire season, which means we have been without power and internet for two days now. I learned our lesson a few years ago and got a small generator to keep the fridge cold and a few outlets charged!

I am utterly convinced that posting loud political shouts on social media does nothing to change the landscape and merely strengthens the echo chamber. Take deep breaths and focus on what is absolutely most important in our lives. #wisdomroad #humankind
