MARCH FORTH!


I may join this march, though probably not in Washington. Anyone else?

If you're on Facebook, there's a secret March for Science group you can join.  The stories they relate are poignant and uplifting.  I am grateful for so many bright and creative people in our nation!

Suddenly....It's MARCH!

I know today is Ash Wednesday, and for some the start of Lent.  
Forgive this flower photo, therefore, as I am choosing Joy for Lent.

Valarie Kaur: Raising a Brown Boy in America



Click, scroll down and listen to her amazing, uplifting speech!!!
http://www.commondreams.org/further/2017/01/27/we-must-breathe-and-then-push

"In her speech, Kaur movingly told stories from her life - her grandfather imprisoned for his faith and other-ness, her fears about 'raising a brown boy in America,' her fervent imagining of the story of America as 'one long labor,' with a finer country 'waiting to be born.'  Let it be so."

TEN YEARS

Well, dear friends, this comes straight from jc's designs page!  
She first posted it the day after Thankful's brother, Rene, died so young.  
He died 10 years ago today, so please keep Thankful in your hearts today.

True Colors

Cyndi Lauper



You with the sad eyes
don't be discouraged
oh I realize
it's hard to take courage
in a world full of people
you can lose sight of it all
and the darkness inside you
can make you feel so small
But I see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that's why I love you
so don't be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow
Show me a smile then
don't be unhappy, can't remember
when I last saw you laughing
if this world makes you crazy
and you've taken all you can bear
you call me up
because you know I'll be there
I can't remember when I last saw you laugh.
And I'll see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that's why I love you
so don't be afraid to let them show
your true colors,
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow




♥    ♥ Thankful! ♥     ♥
