I travel here, alone, seeking wisdom, solace from the present world. I see the light beyond, but it doesn’t touch me here. If I bow to this columned strength, will you help? If I beg and plead will you right these wrongs? I have exhausted my prayers, spent my dreams, even coddled the oppressors, but to no end, and yet, I once again implore–end this strife.

Never my intent
To change all your ideas
Just give it some thought

In my intuitive world, I regress in an autonomous environment, alone, with no great thoughts of how to be. I cannot shine without the whole-ness of world surrounds.
I need the free, wild curve of others in actions and commiseration. I am only a lone satellite in darkness without their presence.

John Candy and Dan Ackroyd, a favorite comedy duo, made “The Great Outdoors” movie in 1988. I miss seeing them and sadly, John Candy passed away in 1994. They made many comedy films together and I enjoyed them all. My favorite scene is John being chased by a bear, but my advice is watch the movie and decide for yourself.

My open burrito/tostada/pizza/ meal today. Unshown lettuce tomato salad. I used small skinny flour tortillas and my burrito mix inside, topped too generously with cheese. Burrito mix is refried beans, salsa, shredded cheese, and finely chopped onions.

🕺🏻🎶”Burrito, burrito! Cha cha cha cha cha cha cha”🎶💃🏿

Did anyone see the video of Florida seniors protesting? Whoa! I do not begrudge anyone for voicing their opinions, but I think one of the women could have toned down her words a bit. Once you start using such language over and over, your words and point are futile and only fuel more hate.

I covet the caress of cotton on hot sleepless nights. I move to look at you beside me, those coal colored coronas staring back at me. I can cover your face for an instant in a call for play, and then relish in your response. Afterwards we rise and enter the balcony to see a column of protesters in the street below cart their cacophony of words in unison.

We had a big thunder, hail, rain storm last evening and I didn’t think much about it. It’s not unusual for the tv, WiFi, etc to go out when this happens. I’m just sitting, reading and my room is all of a sudden aglow with orange. It was so beautiful I could have cried. I have never seen the complete sky filled with such color! Unfortunately I could only grab my iPad and take photos that do not show how spectacular it was. Adjust the color three times deeper and you might get close. What an absolute gift it was! The third one is from my daughter’s home:
