Love of Place
My love of place, this place, Pacifica, runs deep. I love it here and sometimes I don't want to leave. But most people don't get it. The grass is always greener and all that. My frequent outburst, "Can you believe we live here?" this from a bench on the recreation trail Yes, there is a there there and what about the here, here? - by jove! Hear! Hear! We love it! And I say to outsiders (and insiders, bleech, commissioners and council and bureaucrats), don't ruin a great thing. Don't ruin the great town that this is. Stay and care and help make our town better, stay and fight for democracy. Stay and fight for the potential of this already great, could be even better, coastal gem! Scamper like a fraidy cat if you must, but to those who have a little bravery, stay, stay with me and press on to improve this town. I'm staying - you in?
