Riley B. King reminds us about joy…
“I’m trying to get people
to see that we are
our brother’s keeper.

or yellow, rich or poor,
we all have the blues.”
B.B. King (1925-2015) –

conservative and liberal are adjectives and we can join together…

Rather than surrendering to the lowest common denominator…
