Thanksgiving 2014
no this year has not been as i would have wished
but then i don’t remember the universe asking me
it is a year i will not forget
yet i am grateful that you are no longer sick
i am grateful for family and friends
i am grateful for the
air i breathe
the water i drink
the food i eat
the bed where i rest
the home where i live
the studio where i work
the view of taos
mountain
the clear blue
new mexico sky
land of
enchantment
the list could be endless
but most important is you
i am blessed beyond what i could ask

Isn’t News
i wonder.... there
isn’t much on the news anymore
a lot of what they call news doesn’t inform
a lot about
shopping
i guess you can expect no more in a capitalistic society
after all what is more important than shopping
and who gets the last barbie doll
but what about the black family in missouri whose son was shot
by a police office who was afraid
or a 12 year old boy in ohio
the news isn’t all black and white
some of it is silly
some of it is disrespectful
most of it doesn’t matter a
lot of it isn’t news

I love the list of beautiful things you are grateful for, Annell, especially "the most important is you." And isnt it true that our focus in North America seems to be shopping??????
