Hi Jeff - I was thinking about you lately - you once told me that educational materials were curated based on local preferences for what was taught. (My words). With that ringing in my ears, I heard/read someone say that we need to bring back Civics lessons. While I agree with that, the question I have is what that content will consist of? I naively believed that history was history. I'm doubting that these days.

And, while we feel like we are shoveling sand against the tide I hold fast to this: the tide does turn.

Meanwhile, "In our darkest moments, we don't need solutions or advice. What we yearn for is simply human connection—a quiet presence, a gentle touch. These small gestures are the anchors that hold us steady when life feels like too much." [Ernest Hemingway]

Today is Valentine's Day! Don't just stand there; LOVE somebody!

And then resume the battle against evil because while we cannot eradicate it perhaps we can transform it.
