“I am not perfect, everybody knows that by now…Sometimes I don’t know quite how to fix what they are concerned about. But I try. And so, I take it seriously, but I don’t any longer, and haven’t for a long time taken it personally. Because part of the attacks… part of the bullying and part of the name calling – and that has certainly become more pervasive – is to crush your spirit and feel inadequate. And I just refused to do that – and that infuriated everyone.” —Hillary Clinton

Remainders
Walking the shoreline in winter. Following and combing the remainders of the waves for inspiring forms. Searching the empty shells of sea life. Tasting the salt on my lips as the sound of waves rolling up the sand beat a gentle rhythm.
Bruce and Jimmy duet
Make me an angel
Make me an Angel that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing that I can hold onto
To believe in this livin’ is just a hard way to go
Carnival. Natalie Merchant
