Today I slept in and when I woke there was a cat's nose pressed against mine. She is what I like to call my feline alarm clock. After a cuddle and some tail scratching J and I decided to rise and go to the 4th of July parade. People were giggling, laughing with excited voices. They walked with their children and baby buggies. Couples holding hands, old, young, every color in the rainbow. I thought of all those other places were people can't settle their differences with words. Where they argue with guns and violence and a child is not safe to play. Were your race or religion is a reason to kill or hate. I am grateful that on this sunny beautiful day people put aside their issues, enjoyed the sun and a parade. I hope one day all the world can be this.
