230829 What I learned in my studies this morning 3

Rigid claws sharp scrape,

Blood boils in the darkest hate.

Have mercy, Jolene.*

Today's Meditation:

Today's Meditation II:

Thoughts:

Be kind. A recurring theme here and in my life. And in my children's lives.

As I've said before, it's a foundational assumption in everything we do. First, be kind. Then work the problem.

And I love the fact that, as I read the second quote, I find that I'm closer to the description of serenity than of boredom.
