No Title Necessary Title

 Just a quick note since I’ve not posted in a while...

I’m not one for excuses. We are all acutely aware of the grand distractions over the past several months — the pandemic, the summer sieges, riots and destruction. Another divided election, bitterly contested and, for half of our democracy’s voters, unsatisfactorily resolved. Bittersweet for the other half. Then the Capitol riots and incursion… the self-inflicted sabotage, and the overt hypocrisy surrounding it. Yet more fuel for divergent narratives and logical fallacies. All this uncertainty and angst can be consuming pyre if you allow it, and I’ve been an unfortunate witness to several self-immolations. We put down our heads and grind away, nonetheless. The work must be done.

Stephen King wrote “Hope is a dangerous thing” as a line for Red in the Shawshank Redemption. While I’ve found that as an apt maxim the majority of the time, some of us are up for the danger when the occasion arises. It is my hope to have some news for you this year—maybe in a few short months. I hope the grand distractions and their noise fade to the normal rumble of life.

More Soon ~
