I liked that -- gives pause for reflection. Myself... I would have left this world at 2 1/2 -- polio. It knocked the snot out of me as it was. My grown kids have known better "luck." I was mindful of the way they were raised -- didn't take chances with their safety, cared for them well and fed them wholesome foods. But anything can happen at any time to anyone, so it is always good to enjoy the moment and be the best person you know how to be.

Look up the horrors the Shasta Tribe faced via poison and extermination via US Military and Colonialist Extremists. Love and Reconciliation and Living together Sustainably are what we need to Learn from ALL OF IT!

Daily Horoscope for December 17

Taurus

Catch up with the chores today, especially if you've got a long list of them and you want to get through them all before Christmas. You're feeling nicely efficient without wanting to work yourself into the ground, so carry on at a steady pace. A few well-chosen words in a certain person's ear will be more effective than a lengthy conversation at other times.
