Kamala’s message:
Unity, not divisiveness.
Love, not hate.
Policy, not personality.
Civility, not threats.
Watch. And then share far and wide.

Manchmal, wenn ich nach innen schaue, da frage ich mich… Huch, da ist eine dunkle Stelle, die kenne ich noch nicht…
Ich geh’ näher ran und schau sie mir an… AH, JETZT weiß ich, warum dies so ist, ich hab es erkannt… Das LICHT göttlicher LIEBE, es war dort noch nicht…
SEGEN für dich und deinen Tag…
In LIEBE und DANKBARKEIT, dass es dich gibt…

The city, in a statement, sought to reassure residents that their public safety needs are being met, thanked the former chief and officers while wishing them well and said an interim police chief has been chosen and that the Blaine County and Canadian County sheriffs’ offices will assist in patrolling the town.
“We would like to let our citizens know we are conducting business as usual,” according to the statement. “If you have an emergency, please contact 911 like you normally would and an officer will be dispatched to assist you,” the statement said.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. – Desmond Tutu, South African Anglican bishop and theologian, known for his work as an anti-apartheid and human rights activist
I’ve written on the topic of hope more times than I can count. When I released my book We Are Poetry: Lessons I Didn’t Learn in a Textbook two years ago, someone asked me why I included other chapters and thoughts in this volume of poetry. As I mentioned in the first sentence of my Afterthoughts of WE in Poetry, in my book, poetry is a melting pot of people and cultures. I thought about our United States Preamble to the Constitution which begins with We the People. In the state of confusion that we see happening on so many levels, you would think people would be tired of stirring up mayhem and insensitivity, to draw attention to and embolden their ego.
While this book went beyond a traditional collection of poetry, it served as my international anthem of hope, based on the traditional motto of our country, e pluribus unum (Latin for One out of many). But the more I see the life of ‘hope’ being sucked out of the spirit of people everywhere, I will continue to campaign for hope, because hope lives and perseveres.
I simply can’t build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery, and death… I think… peace and tranquillity will return again. -Anne Frank
While hope energizes me, it does me no good if I only keep it to myself. Hope is our future. Hope is humanity. Hope is built on the substance of faith. Hope is love. Hope is optimism. Hope is overcoming despair.
Yet on the flip side, hope does us no good if we merely stand on the sidelines and allow others to snatch it away from us and defecate on it. People are extremely anxious by what the diabolical distractions dictate. Listen folks, we know such distractions are around us, yet we cannot allow them to debilitate our optimism by energizing their power.
I don’t know about you, but I refuse to allow my hope, my joy, my peace, my love, and my spirit to be hijacked by others who are insignificant in their quest but are significant enough to make me grow stronger on my path of endurance. If we lose hope, we’ve already lost the battle.
