What value do we place on human Life?
Not much, when you think about those
in the Ukraine or on our Southern border.
Human indignities, are not strangers to
us. Yet we continue to not take care of
those, citizens or not, who are homeless, for what
ever reason or excuse.
Is that what our humanity has become,
"Do unto others, before they do it to you?"
We say, "Trust in God", yet here we are,
in these squalid parts of the World abusing
others. Tell me please, why does a Just God
allow this to continue?

Lean into my shoulder.
Match your pace
with my gait,
for I will protect you,
as long as I live.

Frivolous, the talk
about a discussion
which was instrumental,
a Bass drum, percussion.

A passing fancy
in colorful clothes.
Passing by, strolling,
attracting adulation.

Dreary the morning
with never the Sun.
Brighten your life,
you are the one.

The Willow trees, limbs bare,
now covered in ice.
Blowing wind, branches tinkle,
a lovely sound to hear, nice.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

Charles Messier described the 88th entry in his 18th century catalog of Nebulae and Star Clusters as a spiral nebula without stars. Of course the gorgeous M88 is now understood to be a galaxy full of stars, gas, and dust, not unlike our own Milky Way. In fact, M88 is one of the brightest galaxies in the Virgo Galaxy Cluster some 50 million light-years away. M88's beautiful spiral arms are easy to trace in this sharp cosmic portait. The arms are lined with young blue star clusters, pink star-forming regions, and obscuring dust lanes extending from a yellowish core dominated by an older population of stars. Spiral galaxy M88 spans over 100,000 light-years.

I literally, trudged through,
the clutter in my mind, as
I try to get a grip on what
is happening to me, emotionally.
I believe I am a basket case,
with many holes in the basket.
I tend to not worry about
things. I am concerned when
there are changes which
affect me and those I love.
Here we are, my wife in
Memory Care, with Advanced
Vascular Dementia-Alzheimer,
while I am in Independent Care.
I do like where I am but
have difficulty breaking the
daily contact with my beloved.
I am told I must allow her to
be cared for by the professionals.
I know that is correct and that
I need to take care of myself.
Easier to say than to do but,
I am making an effort, to do so.
Good golly, Miss Molly, I am
missing you.
