Really like this poem... the hopeful former History teacher in me found many lines worth copying in my own journal! I am with you in the "waiting." Prayers for us all...prayers for our Better Angels to be present next week and beyond...

Like you, I have voted for Kamala for all the reasons you shared, and most of all, for the preservation of and future of our country. And now we wait, and I thank you for this prompt this morning. I pray our wait will not be in vain. Blessings to you and your sisters!

So hope-filled and solidly grounded, Julie, these words of yours, accompanied by the celebratory clip of your sister. Thank you for sharing such tender joy. “I’m waiting” is the best of prompts this early morning. ♥️ I am looking forward to Saturday and writing in company with you. Shannan
