A brilliantly beautiful election day morning



after a night of tossing and turning, produced no doubt by going to bed with a heavy sense of dread hanging over my head, i awakened to what you see in the photo above, taken from my kitchen door mere minutes ago - a gorgeous, cool morning, with the brilliantly green trees backdropped by the deepest blue skies, and everything made sparkling by a sun shining with an intensity i have seen nowhere else but here... the birds are singing and a breeze is blowing... i put the water on to heat and opened up some special brazilian coffee i bought during a layover in the rio airport... i trust that this new day, already so rich in promise, will bring us to a better place...
