Canada is celebrating 15 years of same-sex marriage today. Here’s to all those people who are living their best lives with the ones they love. Grace and peace to all who have that freedom to love freely and openly. Love is indeed Love!
No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world.

My friends I hope you find the motivation you need to get through this Tuesday. I like this meme because its true. Every day is different and motivation can be found within or externally. Hang in there and have the best day possible.
We should strive to be better, not perfect. Perfection is impossible so don’t take that road. It’s bumpy and will only frustrate you.
Patience is a virtue. When it comes to having relationships with fellow human beings it might as well be divine. Loving ones neighbor can be a significant challenge. To be fair I am not always pleasant to be with and I have my own stuff that makes people crazy. Everyone has something.
Every rose has a thorn (I heard that in a song once) and sometimes we are the rose and sometimes we are the thorn. That is a necessary truth as we don’t become full of ourselves or anything like that.
We are all in need of that thing that means that no matter what we are we are still valued, loved no matter the baggage we carry. No one is perfect. Everyone has a fault but we are also special in that imperfection. So if you are dealing with stuff know that you don’t have to go it alone. In this day we need all the support we can muster.
Friends, I hope you are doing our best. May grace be abundant. Have peace this and in the days ahead.

Representative John Lewis of Georgia is a titan in the cause of civil rights, gay rights and human rights. Mr. passed away on July 17th, 2020 after a battle with cancer. His life was dedicated to making the world a better place for everyone. In every sense of the word he was a patriot. Thank you good sir for all the good trouble you caused in changing the world for many. You did things for others at your own peril and safety. Your legacy will be one celebrated in history and memory. Rest in power Mr. Lewis.
When you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have to speak up. You have to say something; you have to do something.
John Lewis
