The Ultimate Sign of Compassion
As many of you know, I consider myself more “spiritual” than religious. I have not attended a church, for various reasons, in many years. I did grow up in a Lutheran church – baptized, confirmed and married in the same one. I also know that every religion teaches us something.
In the Bible, Jesus’ washing of his disciples feet is a wonderful metaphor of how we need to treat others. No matter how powerful, important, confident (or lack thereof) we might think we are, humbling ourselves and serving others can only be a good thing.

Wake up, Everybody! (and hold your ears)
Who is he?
He was a merchant, a devil, a godfather, a romancer, a blind man, leader of a drug cartel, a bank robber, an honest cop, a research chemist exposing the tobacco industry.
It’s his birthday today. He’s 77. Who is he?
What “part” of him do you like best?

Another great shot from David Stalker!
Thank you, MOTHER NATURE
From my garden! 🙂
Hey lunatic. Why’d you wait so long?
Today, in 1945, Adolf Hitler admitted defeat in his underground bunker and stated that suicide was his only option.
Hurry it up, will you? The world needs to breathe again. Why did you wait until the 30th anyway?
Listen and see. Nature at its best!

Only 38 years of life but a lasting impact
I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.
Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity, or registering wrongs.
It is in vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.
