Wednesday words
NEW POST EXPERIMENT: I usually publish posts on Saturdays now, but from now on, whenever I might send you something extra on a Wednesday, I’ll include a quote I like. You’re welcome to share yours in the Comments section. Here’s mine for today:
“Suppose someone standing by a clear, sweet spring were to curse it: it just keeps right on bringing drinkable water bubbling up to the surface. Even if he throws mud or dung in it, before long the spring disperses the dirt and washes it out, leaving no stain. So how are you to have the equivalent of an ever-flowing spring? If you preserve your self-reliance at every hour, and your kindness, simplicity, and morality.”

This comment may seem negative but it’s the result of me drinking in the national cultural spring. Unfortunately, so much dung has been thrown into it that it has become as murky as the Seine and just as hard to clean up. As long as those upstream keep throwing their disgusting verborrhea into our national dialogue, those of us downstream will keep getting sick no matter how hard we try to clean it up. It makes it very hard to “preserve your self-reliance at every hour, and your kindness, simplicity, and morality.”
The Obamas’ speeches at the DNC last night gave us some eloquent and inspiring directions for dealing with this issue, but they warned us of the difficulty of the road ahead too. Like you, they focused their gaze on the bright light of Hope.
Keep lightening the road ahead for us with your kindness and morality!

Well said, Nylda!
