…and now, quite near the very tippy top of our tree branch out on the deck – the one with happy lights and a peace sign – the one where tiny birds perch to rest (and our branch smiles) – the one that was broken off our sturdy old tree in the front yard – now, there are blue lights.
because.
and so, the last two nights – wednesday and thursday – when we have looked out of our sunroom windows a shiver has passed through me.
it is a shiver of gratitude. it is a shiver of some relief. it is a shiver of pride. it is a shiver of anticipation.
there are no guarantees, but we – as a nation – from sea to shining sea – have spoken up.
we have clung to ideals of morality and decency and democracy. with our vote, we have lit up hope.
today is friday again and – for the first time in a long time – it has been a good week for the united states of america.
