A day late, yes, but I didn't want to let the occasion slip by without marking it. The United States is definitely not united. As celebrations took place throughout the country yesterday, this is a solemn reality that should give most responsible citizens a reason to pause. Regardless of our political persuasions and agendas, wouldn't it be wonderful if we could restore mutual respect, be more willing to listen than to talk, and not be so arrogant as to believe it is only our point of view that has any value. That's how it has to be in families, otherwise we don't get along very well. I for one want to be a peacemaker in my corner on a daily basis, and try to become part of a solution instead of perpetuating the problem, of which there are legion. Hatred and scorn have never achieved anything positive.
Love, love the shots with the bridge in the background!
