I could not agree more Cylvia. I did not watch the inauguration. I cannot acknowledge that a criminal and pathological liar is my president. I will do all I can to contribute to a non-violent resistance to any government laws or actions that I feel hurt or marginalize any of our fellow man. I am with you!

Like you, I determined to make January 20, 2025 a day of focus on my gratitude for the gifts of the Biden Presidency, the inspiration of the MLK Legacy, the simple daily things that I must do to take care of myself, and a commitment to show care for a friend in need in Assisted Living. I had a good day.

For the next 4 years I'm going to decide company I keep based on can and will help me to stay on that path.

I am not a young woman anymore. I may have 10 good functional years left in my life. Everyday that I breathe is one day I check off those 10 years. I want every one of them to count. I want every one of them to build a legacy even a small one so that people can say when I pass from this Earth, I'm glad I knew her and she did me some good.

Your blog has been an enormous gift to me since I discovered you. I think I'll keep company with it in the future.

Let's make every day the day we promise ourselves that we will do as much good as we can in the time that we have for goodness.

I’m in! I’m busting today helping get a kind, tough, dedicated, and effective City Council Member appointed to a state legislature vacancy. Flying my flag for Martin Luther King!

Miss Cylvia, when I can get darker than them and find my way back after showing them the light they didn't know they had I saw the glow of and grew to beyond spark of hope. A right mind works daily to rid his story of foulness in destruction of life a slow process may cause leaky faces and found feelings easily hurt by victims who must work out their own demons now too.

I send you prayers and compassion for the suffering that drove you to say this today. May you know less suffering in the days to come.

Typical classless response from someone in the nasty man's camp. Thanks for reading.

The only answer to suffering and ignorance is prayer that those who suffer will someday suffer less, and those who are blind will find the eyes of their soul.
