“Though you experience
transcendence,
And cultivate the spirit of
enlightenment,
Without wisdom from
realizing voidness
You cannot cut off the
root of cyclic life—
So you should strive to
realize relativity.”

Elon Musk’s fall isn’t just scandal it’s a power play Trump’s team is pushing him out, not for the drugs or chaos but for stepping on the wrong toes Ego, betrayal and revenge now define his collapse Don’t mistake this spectacle for redemption Full Article:https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EYgKNireM/

What a wonderful dog walk on the UofA campus this morning. The gray skies (with slivers of sunlight and an occasional sprinkle) made all of the colors in this expansive arboretum come alive. This song was playing in my head and this wonderful memory from last year.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the inevitable defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy.
The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight
Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.
