Good morning my DU family,

I once used to argue that you can't love everyone. I argued my point for six solid months of debate until I was asked the following question:
"What is an human being entitled to from you? In 2000",
I answered acknowledgement, a helping hand if they need it, and a kind word or wish for them.

Please have a rich and fulfilling day, filled with opportunities to love others, as we define it, and please let it be conscious.
Love, John

Had my Covid shot yesterday, and I always react very badly, but this reaction seems to be receding already Usually it takes 3 days for me.

But this is a sofa/tv day for me. Enjoyable in its own way.

I've added one since.
Take the time to be curious if the situation allows.
