2019

Here we are, well into the new year. On Feb. 5, the Chinese Year of the Pig begins. Pig symbolizes good fortune and luck, so we at least have that. Change is in the air. Hope remains, clinging tattered on the clothesline. Earth is hurting. All the animals, including the human animals, are challenged by climate change. Music continues to soothe the soul, it may be our best bet to help us through these dark times. And don't forget to dance! A jig and a spring in your step will keep you sane.
