New Page on Grandma Marie and Grandpa Johnson
Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better
If you’ve noticed a new page on the menu, it is because I have just created one to explain my background image, since I keep losing the post where I explained it, and also since I got a message over Ancestry from a professor at Howard University about my Grandpa Johnson being a war hero (pls see the page linked just above)! I mention him and my great Grandma Marie often, so it seems fair to have a page about them. May their memories always be for a blessing,

Because of their memory, I know that We human beings really can Do Better.
Action Prompts:

Sri Lanka’s Acting Leader Declares State of Emergency as Protests Swell – The New York Times (Me: sad turn of events for Sri Lanka to have someone who was going to resign and now call protesters of incompetent rule “fascists…” They – the old leadership – have bankrupted the nation.)
Protesters did not back down after Mr. Wickremesinghe, the prime minister — who had said over the weekend that he would step down — assumed the presidency. The crowd outside his office swelled. They broke through and took over the building; another group took over the state broadcaster. In his first address as acting president, Mr. Wickremesinghe declared a curfew and referred to some protesters as a “fascist threat.”

Today is Guru Purnima!
Today we celebrate Guru Purnima.
Guru Purnima is a traditional celebration dedicated to all the gurus (both spiritual and academic) that have guided us or taught us something in our lives.
It is celebrated every year on the full moon day of Ashadha – आसाढ़ month, and this year the celebration will happen on July 13th.
Ashadha is a month of the Hindu calendar, and it corresponds to June/July in the Gregorian calendar. It is the first of the two months of the monsoon season.

The celebration of Guru Purnima is marked by several spiritual activities which may also include ritualistic events in honor of the Guru (the so-called Guru Puja).
