Good morning to all from the Lone Star state of Texas. The weather is beautiful, breezy and not humid at all, a big surprise. People are enjoying the unusually comfortable weather as are we, along with our wonderful family here. There is nothing like the hug of a grandchild, all sticky with the ice cream you just bought him.
The walks and talks with the older grandchildren, their excited sharing of the news of their lives, the pride in the graduate to be of eighth grade, the success of an eight year old who took it upon himself to pack lunch for his siblings (never mind that it was a bit heavy on the snack side!) - all this is what it is important in life.
So this morning I am mellow, away from the corrosive atmosphere to be found in the Village. Today is Challenge Day 11 and David Israel is still hiding from the world behind his minions and his computer tap tap tapping. I say to you, enjoy it while it lasts. If one wants to talk about a legacy - where I am today is one. No one can remember the names of CV UCO presidents from years ago, so indulge yourself right now, go ahead. Think carefully about your "legacy" about which you talk incessantly. Why not leave a legacy of kindness, of caring, of self sacrifice, rather than the one that is going on right now? Think about it.
I will return to the Village and my mellow mood will melt, so enjoy your peace now. Maybe you will have evolved, along with your minions, and peace talks can begin!
