It rained in the night and the morning is quiet and calm.  I look out at clouds and trees, graced in exchange. 

Edgar Degas wrote: Art is not what you see but what you make others see.  

This morning I balance on these words of Ruth Bader Ginsberg.

“To make life a little better for people less fortunate than you.

One lives not just for oneself, but for one’s community.“

We have a president-elect who lives for and creates community. May kindness, love, and generosity prevail.
