It’s been a big week, and I am going to think about this….
1. I think generally Americans are a friendly adventurous people… I think we dream big, I think we are good at heart. I wish we were more appreciative of our enviroment, I wish we listened to Neal Degrasse Tyson more when it came to science and discovery, we need to get back to that adventure. But I do think we are couragious, and brave as a whole.
2. The President singing Amazing Grace was a truly beautiful moment. The second he started singing I burst into tears. Did you know that it was written by a English guy? I didn’t ….
3. We have the best steaks and free refills too. Also 1966 Ford Mustang.
4. Star Wars
I might come back …
Free Refills! That’s a lot of steak! 😉
I cried, too, at the “Amazing Grace” video.
And I would add: Levis.
The Native American Museum in Washington, D.C., the Air and Space Museum too.
That despite countless generations of fighting, there is hope that these civil rights movements will prevail and live on, working together, ending tyranny, with liberty and justice for all.
The Commodore 128 and 64, and Steve Jobs’s revival of Apple (though what Apple has become since his death is a travesty of lean six sigma at the same price.)
My 72 Polara and Mom’s 66/67 Mustang, may they rust in peace.
I think we live in interesting times.
The Smokie Mountains.
They are beautiful.
It has its faults, but to quote Candide. “It’s the best of all possible worlds.”
I’m pretty fond of it. =)
Um. Cheap gas!
And yet we still complain about gas prices!
I guess it’s what one’s used to? For us, it’s like water over there.
Blue skies (largely), having the ability to be by oneself (or with others!) easily, that people in shops (or on the street) will speak kindly to one another, the amount of space we have (and much of it beautiful spaces, at that – traveling provides much in the way of climate and/or visual differences through each region. I find that very exciting…) and, very importantly, the freedoms fought for (and won).
Love these. =)
