I hope it continues as it is. For all people & all days. That we can start to work together to bring home back to full glory and show ourselves worthy of it's gifts.
Or as I suspect we'll keep investing in Wall St, driving SUV's to the Sierras and wondering where the snow is, keep flying to luncheon meetings in Las Vegas and keep crushing & pulverizing every last inch of her to make a quick buck. We are a selfish breed that only cares about the present. I see no impetus to change even with the clues we are provided. Maybe only at the end will some people wonder as they sip that last breath what good they could have been to those to come?
