Scott Pelly speaks (min. 48) my liberal mother and conservative uncle - who disagreed politically but still deeply loved each other. I learned a lot from both of them and wish I could ask them - what do I do with the current climate of fear that exists in the USA?

time passes and life is there.
Can trees escape fire?
Life is full of pain
shooting people makes more pain
sowing seeds of peace . . .
Is it impossible to envision peace among countries, amoung people, among families, among siblings?
Rehearsals!

First woodland walk and,
Visit with young students so,
The singing water!
Teaching is my thing.
How'd I get to be so small?
Youth does spring to life!
It's been a rough week.
No one really cares, that's life.
Trees seem to listen.
Go Dragons, opening game.

real, human, together
yet we miss the mark
I'm not sure - my guess is they'd give a convoluted lecture about how Democrats are the weak ones and Trump is the strongest and best ever . . .

people do it all the time
communication!
Jump to conclusions
all life sings in harmony
germs, trees, animals
Making a living
And making a life, a difference,
seem juxtaposed, trees
What do Trees think and
Do they worry about men?
A peaceful forest
Me playing fiddle in a pub. I'm wearing a green cap, green long sweater, and playing my violin. A flute is on a table and there are three drinks
A fiddler and a Bahdran player playing music together.
A Bodhran, mandolin and flute player playing music together.
A violin next to a beer on a table. Good times
