President Zelensky spoke to Congress today
He had a lot to say
That we were very happy to hear
And
President Biden admitted
Putin
is a
War Criminal
Progress
It took a brave and uncorrupted Ukranian man to bring our congress together
There was a standing ovation before and after Zelensky’s speech
I pray that it lasts
Sometimes someone comes out of nowhere and redefines what it means to be a human being
And a great leader
Zelensky’s characterization of Biden as a Leader of Nations
and a Man of Peace
sets a new possibility
That peace might happen

We did take a walk
In the afternoon
It was refreshing
we came upon a little dog
kind of a chihuahua
with a silky tan coat
he was with his owner
an older woman with a blue leash
waiting patiently to put it on her little dog
as we approached
we noticed that he was just standing there
on the asphalt driveway
his four tiny feet planted
near the sidewalk
his face pointed at us
unmoving
but body taut
poised for action
we stopped
uncertain about his intentions
he didn’t move
he wasn’t growling
he stood his ground
patiently but firmly
until we passed
then he scampered with his owner
across the street
paying no more heed to us
he had done his job
protecting her
I couldn’t help feeling
there was integrity in his behavior
a simple undeterred understanding of
what his job was
no more no less
it reminded me of Zelensky
the President of Ukraine
who is standing his ground
with dignity and respect
for all humanity
