What is leadership? In a crisis, it is not doing for others what they must do, but understanding what needs doing, inspiring others to follow. At the federal, state, local, and family levels, “Progressives” are on the march. We must be leaders.
Sometimes less is more, and never more so than in poetry. Last month was National Poetry Month. Many a long poem, verse upon verse, lots of unrequited love, was recited. But for my money, or at least my time, many days storm-tossed, I just like Robert Frost.
Early voting is changing US elections as Republicans increasingly embrace mail-in and in-person voting before Election Day in 2026.
This Memorial Day reflection explores freedom, gratitude, sacrifice, and the responsibility to use our limited time wisely.
As kids, our mother taught us: Bring something with you when you visit, fresh cookies, a jar of jam, muffins, blueberry or peach pie (she made both), wildflowers – and a smile.
