DAY OF RESISTANCE AND THIS LONE FLOWERING PLANT IN THE WINTER COLD. I think of our day of resistance. I think of that January 20 day of telling the world that something is not right and just and fair, that something is amiss in this democracy of the elite and for the elite in a world presumably organized and founded and ruled and sustained and nurtured and nourished according to democratic ideals. Like this plant resisting the onslaught of the winter cold and bearing flowers and in the grim darkness of the winter soil, gifting us with the color we need to put smile on our lips, we announce to the world what resistance mean, and in announcing what we can do, we shall be able to win back our resolve to do what is just, right, and fair. Or live a life fully lived. HAPPY VALLEY, OR, 23 Dec 2016.
