I am so grateful to be an American. Walt Whitman speaks for me, the poet of democracy. God bless America. God bless all the kind Americans who inspired me to become one: my professors, my students, the kind workmen , workwomen. I am so happy. I am no longer an exile. This is home.

A letter from James Baldwin. This man had a sharp mind for writing, a huge heart and that kind of humility that shows greatness.

To help a loved one with cancer, think about what you're good at — and what they need. Are you organized? Plan their meals. Detail-oriented? Go with them to appointments. Survivors share ideas.

A memory from May. In fall, we yearn for spring, and in summer, we yearn for fall.

Generations come and generations go,
but the earth remains forever.
The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.
The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.

–Ecclesiastes 1

Timelapse of beautiful evening clouds in Seattle, Washington. I’m really enjoying this Timelapse thing. And the sky is never the same. No two days have the same sky. It’s an infinite, creative universe.

Timelapse of the evening sky in Kenmore, Washington. I’m learning new things about photography, and I’m in love with my cameras and the things they can do. Mind you, this a Canon R50, a budget camera, but it rocks! Have a good night, loves.
