this day the United States government approached the edge of a cliff. After too much drama, too much exasperating posturing and name calling, after far to much politics the elected representatives have decided to  get back to work
shame regret disgust disappointment disbelief but mostly I feel such sadness for the people who have been negatively effected, the lives disrupted, the waste of time and money and the damage to the noble dream that once was this nation
with a hope in the people, with a belief in ideals I post these beautiful symbols



 We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.(Preamble to the Constitution of the United States of America)







I am the eagle, I live in high country
In rocky cathedrals that reach to the sky
I am the hawk and there's blood on my feathers
But time is still turning they soon will be dry
And all of those who see me, all who believe in me
Share in the freedom I feel when I fly

Come dance with the west wind and touch on the mountain tops
Sail over the canyons and up to the stars
And reach for the heavens and hope for the future
And all that we can be and not what we are
 by John Denver and Mike Taylor




 Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost, to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

Emma Lazarus
