The President I'd Rather Follow
Everyone has their political leanings. This article is not about politics. It’s about leadership. I’ve become rather unnerved by reading the news lately. 2025 is not the year I was hoping it would be. I believe that elected officials should be leaders among the population that they represent. For example, a mayor should be a leader of and in his/her city. An elected board member of a nonprofit should be a leader among all who serve or benefit from that nonprofit. A state senator should be a leader in their state. By that same logic, a president of a sovereign nation should be a leader among his nation.

Two cardinals and a small flock of house sparrows were the first to celebrate the arrival of spring on Wednesday morning. The sun was shining and rattling bikes scooted over cobblestone streets.

Beer mugs and plates clanked at corner cafes like windchimes, and windows were opened to blow winter’s dust through the back door.

Vicarishame - 5
I was driving most of the day today, getting only the snippets of the big news on the radio because NPR was running away from the frequencies available to me. But even the little news that broke through the static made me facepalm myself in shame for Trump.

February 24 - Forever Black Day
This day is particularly dark for me as we are marking three full years of Russia's assault on Ukraine. There was a large rally and demonstration in Washington, DC on Saturday, Feb.22, and several large cities have planned activities such as rallies, demonstrations, requiems and prayers over the weekend and today.
