Feeling Rapturous Mountain rainbow For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the rapture. As a child, I had relatives who attended a church that occasionally predicted raptures. My earliest rapture memories are a general concern that my aunts and cousins might disappear and no longer be at family holidays. (They always were and are still on Earth today, so far as I know.) For the last rapture planned during my childhood, I was as a teenager.

My Country ’tis of Thee, Sweet Land of Liberty? I saw two white men kneeling on a brown man, forcing his face into the blacktop of the highway yesterday afternoon. Tonight, in the wee hours of July 4th, my country's birthday, I cannot sleep because I cannot understand how we got here.

Ooh, I do like the twist of responding with different family’s cards. I could send them ones other friends sent me! Or maybe send a Valentine so the timeline stays appropriate?

Christmas Eve I received a holiday card from an acquaintance that I’d taken off my list. I sent them a card in return, as per holiday card etiquette. January 3rd, I received a second card from them. It’s exactly the same. Picture of their family, no personalization. What’s my next move?
