In Florida no less! Kudos!! We all need to be calling pur representatives!!
A Florida weatherman telling his viewers he can no longer be confident in his forecasts due to cuts to atmospheric science is the kind of resistance content I’m here for.

Kudos, Sir.🌦️

This single bed an
iron headboard

two pillows
one borrowed

quilt my sons
grew up under

feels like
more luxury

than I
deserve.

Governments have effectively been grooming us how and whom to hate from the beginning. They're good at it. Our fractured cultures, and the great spiritual literatures teach us to resist and renew our kinship. We will defeat hate by loving our neighbors

One of the things I have learned so far about my account on Blue Sky: I should use this as a storage for my own writing, without the expectations for dialog I had carried with me from FB. Good to know.

There is a good Word here this morning about loving your enemies. Much needed in my own heart: Start at 1:13:00 to 1:39:00 if you want to skip the rest of the service.

For Clarity,

How frugal is the Chariot
That bears the Human Soul –
Dickinson 1263

first, pray your winter canyon-self empty,
Then, you may receive a flood, a gully washer
that hollows out your sandstone
disinters your river rock
and scrubs your rip rap clean.

The yard I love
today is my prison yard.
Winter is like that.

I write a thank you note
watch the Cheat
Grass dance with the wind.

For a moment my
shackles fall open.
Love is like that.
