Time for a little political humor





I have to admit - I've been knitting like crazy trying to assuage my absolute horror... contempt?..... general malaise.... disbelief.....get the picture? about what's going on in America at the moment. Frankly, if the Election is as close as reported, about half the people I see each day on the street have left their minds under the bed this morning!
You might be able to guess who I think has a better chance of turning the world around....... meanwhile, a word from our sponsors!

Medicare for All should be our goal

" Under the greatest adversity there exists the greatest potential for doing good, both for oneself and others ." ~Dalai Lama And one of Montana's Methodist Ministers, Joan Uda, wrote an editorial for the Great Falls Tribune this week, asking essentially, What would God think of this? Here's a small excerpt: I'm startled by the frenzied opposition to health care reform. Are these good people Christians? Do they recall that Jesus will judge us not by how well we've kept our earnings for ourselves but by how we have cared for "the least of these"? Matthew 25:31-46. This is a matter of salvation. I don't believe God supports any particular solution for health care. But I do believe God wants everyone, even the least, included. And I believe Jesus Christ calls us to display our best Christian virtues in the debate on these issues. Here's George Lakoff's perspective on how language influences the discussion on Health Care policies this seas...

Zombie Opera!!

Stella's dancing fingers have been working on music for a new opera production which PREMIERES this weekend in Portland Oregon. (pssst, she's the tiny blonde concert mistress in the pit!) Here's a little bit about Stella: A student of Carol Sindell, Stella studies violin performance at Portland State University. She is a member of the PSU Symphony Orchestra as well as concertmaster of the New Music Ensemble at Portland State. As an advocate and fan of New Music, Stella is proud to be friends with some of Portland's most talented young composers (Reed Reimer and Ben Larson included), who give her lots of great opportunities to perform their work. Originally from Missoula, Montana, Stella lives in Portland with her partner Marcus. She loves to make art and surround herself with the lovely people she's lucky to call her friends and family.

I Believe....

I Believe that birthing and raising children is a work of the soul, a challenge to the spirit, and a gift to the universe. that "God" is bigger than any religious group, 'true believer', or even the deepest thinking theologians and scientists can grasp. that we have more than one chance to 'get it right' -yes, that implies some variation of reincarnation. that there are always alternatives to war and conflict. in fairy tales, tall tales, and even 'urban legends' might contain kernels of truth. that the seasons remind us, subliminally at least, of the spiral and cycles of life. that my dogs are the best canines ever incarnated, and I am so happy that they have found me again and again....!! the 'best' years of my life are the ones I am living. that we should pray for, and work for, peace and hope and change every day of our lives. NOW is our opportunity to influence what is reaching towards us from the future. that LOVE always triumphs.
