How the fable about the little boy and the levee gives me hope.
Hope. I remember when, then senator Obama gave me hope.
I’ve been looking for something that gives me that same hope now and I keep thinking of Mrs. Dodge’s fable about the little boy and the levee.
But, It’s not what you think, the fable fantasizes that the little boy put his finger in the hole of the levee thereby saving the town.
Thinking that ONE small boy could actually stave off the waters of an entire flood that’s rising against the town is fantasy.
The real story goes that the floodwaters were being held back by the levees and a 15 foot section of the levee began to giveaway and rather than call on some 8 year old kid, they called in a local ship captain to use his vessel, with All Hands on Deck to seal the breach - thousands of people’s lives were saved.
It took the entire town pulling together and a very Big stick to save the town’s people.
This moment will require All of us coming together to save the country we have earned by blood, sweat, and tears.
None of this will ever be easy.
The daily peaceful protests are happening everywhere. I plan to get out there and help steer this ship with whatever I have left.
Remain vigilant. Remain aware. Act locally. We the people give strength to our leaders in Washington through our actions.
I haven’t hit the streets in a couple months due to health, but I’m better now.
Time to help stop the flood.

I put forward some scenarios for a "disaster" being set up by the Fuhrer and his gang.
But there's hope.
We can all expose their plan all day, every day until it sinks in with more people, and better, it encourages people with leverage to do the right thing when the coup goes down big time on Putin's orders. People need to know that the majority supports doing the right thing and foiling Putin's Puppets.
I'm doing my part by sharing my "connect the dots" scenarios, to take any surprise out of it and to alert people that loyal people (still) outnumber the traitors and together, we will stop them. (And fill Alcatraz to overflowing --- and there be sharks in the surrounding bay 🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈🦈 as well as batteries 🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋.)
And a new library there.
