… finally cooler nights and early morns here in southern USA … moving to the kitchen I click the button on the coffee pot, lift the blinds on the long windows, watchfully awaiting the warm rays of sunlight … passing a mirror my late mother looks back at me.
Another day … filled with efforts to live in the moment … to push away the inclination to hate … all the horrors allowed… carrying seed for the feeders outside, wondering if all the birds … have fled occupied Palestine … watering, pruning the plants… images arise of miles of concrete rubble … crushing beautiful human beings, many in the flowering of their youth, struggling to free themselves … literally and …
Two of my favorite quotes:
But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
[Amos 5:24 KJV ( The Book of Amos is the third of the Twelve Minor Prophets in the Christian Old Testament and Jewish Tanakh and the second in the Greek Septuagint. Amos denounced the injustice and idolatry of Israel and challenged the kings, priests, and leaders of his time.)]
The great way is not difficult for those who have no preferences.

Bit of a conflict there, right?
I prefer … consequences for lawlessness, crimes against humanity.
Free Palestine!
