Tea: Blood Orange with honey
Music: Bob Walkenhorst, "Stolen the Moon"
Time: Night.
The heat finally broke today. You can tell it's been miserable when 88 degrees feels like a cold snap.
I shouldn't gripe, though. A lot of people are doing without air conditioning this summer.
We live in the most privileged country on earth, and it's easy to start thinking of privileges as rights. But people have lived a lot longer without conveniences than with them -- so, obviously, they're not essential to survival.
Gets me to thinking a bit ... what would happen if people gave up a few privileges and luxuries, now and again, so others could have the basic rights of food, water, shelter and purpose?
I'm not going to climb into the pulpit or anything ... but if anyone here catches your eye and your heart, isn't the chance to help worth a few lattes?
