Art by Mary Engelbreit, from her Engeldark line: I woke up this morning determined to drink less, est right and exercise… But that was four hours ago… when I was younger and full of hope. Art is middle aged woman in a flowered dress, holding a squash at arms length.

#ThisLifeThing, rife with surprises, yes? I never imagined myself this old woman puttering around the house, channeling my dad, gleefully singing “Der Fuehrer’s Face”. These are the days of miracle and wonder, Lovelies.
Watch out for low-flyin’ crazies. 🖤

Quote text on image: “Outside the locked room is the landscape of time, in which the spirit may, with luck and courage, construct the fragile, makeshift, improbable roads and cities of fidelity: a landscape inhabitable by human beings.” ~ Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed Surrealist fantasy image of a girl child in a red dress, holding a teddy bear in one hand, standing on a balcony looking at the sea and sea birds, in a blue sky with clouds. She is seen through a cutout in the shape of an adult woman.

I had an insight just now, something I’ve not before felt in this way:

I am completely uninterested in stories of men seeking fortune and fame. Give me instead those of human beings together learning to create worlds of compassion, empathy, conscience, and love.
