“When despair for the world grows in me;
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief.
For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.”-Wendell Berry
A friend on the bird site reminded me tonight of how much I love this poem.

OMG. I’ve been so stressed with what’s going on in this country & discovered the YouTube 4K Relaxation Channel this weekend. Beautiful videos of places, nature & wildlife. Really helpful. Thought I’d share😊

A small part of me thinks the Trump White House will find a way to turn a government shutdown into an excuse for something nasty and repressive. I don't have anything specific in mind, but this is a man who feeds on chaos. On the other hand, this is a man who can't remember how he feels about key legislation from one moment to the next. Bottom line: There's nothing good in all this. We're sucking as a representative democracy.
