Words matter. Ideas matter. Actions matter most of all. I have been thinking about the current political climate of one-upsmanship, of obstructionism, of disrespect. If grandmothers were in charge, everyone would be cared for. Babies would be rocked and fed. The sick would be healed. Our jobless would have gainful employment, honest work that pays a living wage. We would help those in trouble, and celebrate the glorious variety of peoples, cultures, foods, traditions in the world.
Perhaps I am a dreamer. But I believe this is possible.
