What’s your favorite holiday music? The holiday season can be wonderful and it can be difficult, but it always makes me feel nostalgic. I have fond memories of watching the Andy Williams Christmas specials as a child, and have always loved these 2 songs.

“Despite (the monarch’s) fragility, it is remarkably resilient, like many things in nature when we just give them a chance. Science shows that the monarch needs that chance, and this proposed listing invites and builds on unprecedented public participation in shaping monarch conservation efforts.”
The beloved monarch butterfly has seen such a troubling decline in its population that US wildlife officials announced a proposal to help protect the species.

It doesn’t seem long ago that monarchs were plentiful, but I don’t remember seeing any in my neck if the woods these last few years. I’m hoping this proposed protection status is adopted, and the monarch population can be reestablished.
U.S. wildlife officials proposed on Tuesday that monarch butterflies receive protection as a threatened species.
Monarch Butterflies Are Recommended for Protected Status in U.S.
They would become the most commonly seen species to receive federal protection if the proposal is adopted.

Imagine.
We’re a long ways off. Still, every little thing each of us does to bring peace and calm to others, to do what we can to help struggling people thrive, to help marginalized people feel accepted, and to love others takes us one step closer.
Or maybe I’m just a dreamer…

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do;
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too.
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace.
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.
John Lennon, 10/9/40-12/8/80
