Meri's Musings

Right now, it's hard for me to believe that there will ever be civil discourse in the political arena here in the good old U.S.A. I have given up on believing that Trump's behavior will ever be anything but self-serving and offensive or that Congress will stop enabling him and rein him in. But I'll never stop believing in kindness,  in beauty, in laughter, and in hope. We need all of those things in abundance. Right now. Every day.

Haiku My Heart . the sun dips its brush first in the sky, then water and paints love around p.s. Please forgive me, fellow Haiku creators. . . I am off for the weekend and am not taking e-devices. I will soak in your genius when I'm back. In the meantime, the 20 somethings are holding down the fort and (I hope) remembering to feed the felines Deja Mew and Purrsnickety.

Sometimes the waves slam into shore. Sometimes the winds blow us sideways. But even in the most ferocious storms, or their blustery aftermath,  there's always beauty around us. A soothing salve for the soul.
