Let us all be inspired by the words and the actions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. every day of our lives. "The road ahead is not altogether a smooth one. There are no broad highways that lead us easily and inevitably to quick solutions. But we must keep going." - Dr. King's words 60 years ago.

We have so many opportunities to start over. Each new morning is an opportunity to start over, but there’s nothing like a whole year to start all over. New Year’s provides that opportunity. Let us join hands and hearts and spirits to start over this new year. Have a great start over and great year!

My observation watching BBC coverage of President Carter’s passing. He has this expression on his face — a look of peace and love. His eyes are almost always smiling. It made me think of Thich Nhat Hanh’s saying, “I vow to live fully in each moment and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion.”

Epilogue: Kwanzaa is so powerful. It is powerful for people who practice it because it builds better communities and better communities build better people. Kwanzaa is particularly powerful for oppressed peoples... #Kwanzaa

Good God.
“I’m waiting for an ambulance. I might be going into labor. Is that okay?”

“You’re being detained because you’re unlawfully camping.”

This is the “culture of life” I’ve heard so much about. www.lpm.org/news/2024-12...
Pregnant Kentucky woman cited for street camping while in labor
She told a police officer she was in labor. The Louisville Metro Police Department lieutenant cited her for unlawful camping as the ambulance arrived. She had a baby later that day.

Syrian rebel troops are reportedly pouring into Damascus City. It looks like Bashar al-Assad is on the verge of being overthrown — a major defeat for both Russia and Iran.
