And Then? I Found My Sign

- Yesterday's TV covered the hundreds together with hundreds of protests across the province together with across the world. It all made my tough-guy married adult man a tiny fleck teary. "The protestors brand me proud to move an American."
- The mayor of DC unleashed moxie, volunteers together with buckets of xanthous pigment to proclaim to all the world, Black Lives Matter.
This morning time I jumped out of bed, went similar a shot to the basement for paint. I'd constitute my sign.
It's a journey, my friends. If you're looking, I promise you'll discovery your sign too.
Love to all ... hang inward there.
