Dec 5 Rain “nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands” (e. e. cummings) This closing line has sat with me like no poem nor play nor prose has ever crept into my thoughts. While cummings was writing of romantic love, isn’t that what we all want from a spiritual experience? A love, a peace, a wholeness that soaks even more deeply into our skin and souls than the rain that pours down relentlessly? The rain that could be so powerful to make seeds change to trees and then the floods that uproot and destroy and pound new seed and new life would also be so gentle. What would that love look and feel like? How would we receive it? What would it take to give that love? #adventword #adventword2022 #adventcalendar #adventskalender #advent #rain #episcopal #episcopalian #eecummings #northcarolina @greatsmokynps #latergram @blueridgenps #clingmansdome #latergram #2016 #macro https://www.instagram.com/p/ClyPZ4ruW8l/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Dec 3 Unity Unite. Come together. Turn to the same goal or idea. Retain yourself. Having worked supporting leadership education for the last few years, of course I go to how people interact. It is often too easy to slip from unity into uniformity. Unity must be cultivated and nurtured through healthy dissent and loyal opposition. (In the AdventWord song catalog, today I have Queen Latifah in my head) #adventword #adventword2022 #adventcalendar #advent #unity #mydbg #episcopal #episcopalian #fauxtography #nikon https://www.instagram.com/p/Cls20iIu95H/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

For sale of argument and to point out the importance of finishing on photos, compare the raw, un-fussed with original to the enhanced, Instagram-altered version. What I am learning is that getting the best you can in camera is completely vital, but the finishing is what directs the eye and shows the viewer what you want to see. #metaphotography #learning #learningphotography #fauxtography #waterlily #jpeg #nikon #d3200 #nikonphotography #macro #instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Clq_uw_uK4y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Dec 2 Ready Will we ever be ready to shed the shells that hold us back and bloom into the beauty we are? Of course we will never be ready. But we do it anyway. #adventword #adventword2022 #advent #adventcalendar #episcopal #episcopalian #ready #mydbg @denverbotanic #waterlily #macrophotography #dslr #nikon #d3200 https://www.instagram.com/p/Clqgts5uTl-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“In a time of destruction, create something.” ~Maxine Hong Kingston The first time I made a set of Anglican Prayer Beads was at a workshop with the 20s/30s group at Saint John’s Cathedral. When the Cathedral shut down its bookstore, I had a wild hare of an idea to make lots more of them to sell at coffee hour as the fundraiser for the Cathedral’s AIDS Walk team. And from there, I was hooked. Turning little pieces of wire and playing with colors is my place of peace. #adventword #adventword2022 #advent #adventcalendar #episcopal #episcopalian #make #makesomething #prayerbeads @sjcdenver @firemountaingems https://www.instagram.com/p/ClnwFA3uEgm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Social Security Act became law on 14 August 1935.

Standing to the left of FDR in the photo (in gray suit) is Rep. Robert Doughton (D-NC), chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee and the official sponsor of the legislation in the House; Sen. Robert Wagner (D-NY), who         introduced the bill into the Senate; Frances Perkins (Secretary of Labor) who had been chair of Roosevelt’s Committee on Economic Security, which conceived of Social Security; (in white suit with cigar) Sen. Byron “Pat” Harrison (D-MS) who is credited with getting the Act through the Senate Finance              Committee; and Rep. David Lewis (D-MD), a former coal miner and self-educated lawyer, who introduced the Social Security bill into the House on January 17, 1935 (although Doughton persuaded the House clerk to give him credit, which was called the Wagner-Doughton bill).

I’ll believe it when I see it. Ted Nugent said he would be dead or in jail if there was a second Obama administration, and he’s still collecting royalties for Cat Scratch Fever.

As history professor, Heather Cox Richardson (aka TDPR or the Dread Pirate Richardson) pointed out, it’s likely that someone calculated the risks and decided that whatever consequence there would be for deleting materials that are required by law to keep us most likely less of a consequence than whatever those texts contain.

Im also curious. How is it possible that they are completely gone? Someone has to know. Has to have them. Has to have a copy.
