I was heartened this morning as I stopped by Wawa on my way to the shop.
The bustle of American workers, plumbers, electricians, mechanics, teachers, small business owners such as me, none too proud to stop at Wawa for a cup of coffee or a breakfast sandwich, was evidence of a nation at work. I bought my cup of coffee and breakfast sandwich and walked out to my car with a good feeling about the future of our country, a path we started on after the last recession and continue on today. We have much work to do to get those workers at a higher standard of living with better wages, but seeing the evidence of the work was reassuring.

I am sure that whatever upcoming events transpire at the national level, we will prevail. Today, I feel as if the soil that covers the top of our national food chain will soon be washed away by justice. I feel the peace that comes with an indestructible belief in Grace with a capital "G" and the surety that darkness must flow to the light to be revealed and forgiven, hence explaining so much of the tarnished news we are seeing daily. Today, I see the flow of America, and I say thank you for the opportunity of living in such a remarkable, diverse land of opportunity.
Peace. Love, Linda
