Perfect. Absolutely perfect. Happy Sunday and Happy Birthday to Dr. King.
The internal violence is much harder to control. Wonderful quote and beautiful picture.
Happy Sunday, Sis!
Lovely – and btw, Susie, I may be out your way one weekend in Feb. and would love to say hi and have a coffee.
Beautiful picture!
Love you!
Happy Sunday.
Love your enemies. ….Wait a minute …does that mean you and Circus Kelli are enemies?
*is strongly against nonnviolience since they waddle around looking like penguins, who’d wanna harm a nonn anyway?*
Lovely photo, Susie. MLK Jr. was a far greater man than I’ll ever be. My desire to smack someone around when they’re being a bigoted butt-wipe is far too strong.
Amen.
Amen and FM!
Beautiful photo, and very appropriate quote.
Hope you’re staying warm today!
Challenging! (sermon today was on that…coincidence or God-incidence?)
In modern speak, “don’t be a hater”
MLK was the man. I wish I could have seen him in some other form other than then video archives.
Happy Sunday Susie, you make my heart warm. Much love to you and yours this special time 🙂
Beautiful photo, Susie. Love. Hugs. Prayers.
happy to you, too, htgt
squirl, very true.
operagal, I am very unpredictable these days, but keep in touch, let me know the whens and wheres.
ck, thanks, honey. Love you back.
william, it just means we refuse to shoot each other. We’re still deciding whom to shoot…
mrB, I always enjoyed the Flying Nonn. She left the convent and married some adulterous winemaker, I hear.
jim, he was, indeed, someone special. We are more thoroughly bombarded with bigoted butt-wipes today, thanks to technology. Maybe times are tougher, in that way.
shari, hallelujah.
traci, . . . FM . . . like, “no static at all”? What?
shawkey, it was chilly, but I stayed warm. I hope you are warm, too.
kc, indeed, don’t be hatin’.
chchchchia, love to you, too, running girl.
ladybug, thank you, and all the same right back.
Gorgeous photo, Susie. Amen to MLK.
