So far, I am able to do this next post! Wonderful. It is the first of May, chilly out, multiple birds still at the feeder, gun control being argued on the national news, and time to look to art and to reach out to each other to make sense of what comes our way.

These tulips hail from Bergen, in Norway, where I was almost exactly a year ago.

I hope that you share with me the joy in how we see both the greens of spring and the sorrow of the harm left behind after storms, floods, winds, and fire. Even the cruelty we humans sometimes show each other -- seen in the harshness toward those we do not understand -- is shocking when it leads to killing each other or punishing people simply for being different. It isn't as if there is only one way to live on this earth. Can't we practice kindness instead? Tolerance? Over- come our fears of differences? Imagine what goodness can do?
It's good to share a few photos and some concerns. Thanks for listening and looking ----- Ann
