When I feel fearful, this quote from Mark Twain gives me comfort.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Hi, thank you for opening comments for the broke folk like me. I wanted to wish you and yours a very Merry Happy Christmas. I love your blog but am financially strapped due to fixed incomes and rising prices. But if ever I get the opportunity, I will upgrade to pay to better support you. I share your links everywhere. Peace, man.

I was moved by that video. It shows the best of us. It softened everything and elevated my day. Merry Christmas to you Jeff and the lovely Ms Spouse.

Yesterday as I am apt to do, I drove throughout the Hudson Valley delivering Xmas cookies and even some home made crackers. As I entered the Rip Van Winkle bridge an eagle swooped my car. Startled I looked up in glee and read the bridge sign, "You are not alone." And here we are my friends, about to enter into the most important, historical election of our days. Have a wonderful holiday, Jeff, Ms. Jeff and all. Remember the eagle and that We Are Not Alone!
