Tides of Change

This past week has been one of triumph and mourning.

Triumph for Americans and all those we affect. The fall of the far right Republican machine of dis-information, fear factor control tactics, and general crimes against humanity at all levels have been toppled…. But not utterly downstroyed. So still, everywhere there is War.

Let’s only hope that some good will come out of this new regime. That they too will not fall victim to seduction of tyrannical control. Effectively excommunicating those who disagree rather than engaging in a productive dialog for good of the people. Let’s hope that they will not continue to restrict human rights based on a false moral base (Ted Haggard). Let’s only hope for less war on our people, our environment, and our individualism.

Mourning – The passing of Ed Bradley, 25 years of journalistic service and excellence.
Died from Leukemia.

Not Mourning- The death of Pieter Willem Botha. A staunch advocate and supporter of Apartheid and racial segregation. I am not sad that he has left this life. Hopefully he has learned and in the next incarnation he will serve humanity rather than work to destroy it. but who am I to judge...this is only my humble opinion.

Forward Ever… Backward Never
