Speaking Truth To Power

Mark Kelly is a Senator in the US Congress.  A leader in governing, in guiding the future of the country.

The President of the USA has a vision for the future that places himself at the centre.  Mark sees all the American people in that location. 

He has courage:

Everybody needs to wake up.  The occupant of the Oval Office is ignorant to the Constitution and has no regard for the rule of law … I will not be intimidated by this president.  I am not going to be silenced by this president.

There is danger in the air.  As Glenn Carr says on Facebook:

Time Zones are so crazy
In Denmark, it’s noon
In Canada, it’s 6 am
In the USA
      It’s late 1930s Germany

Mark is both embraced and reviled.  Here’s a hug from Ginger Kimbrell:

Please keep up the fight!  Our whole country needs you and others with your knowledge and experience to help us become what we have stood for since our Constitution was written

And from an unknown poet:

Sit like a mountain
Sit with a sense of strength and dignity
Be steadfast, be majestic, be natural and at ease in awareness
No matter how many winds are blowing, be intimate with everything and sit like a mountain

***

Thank you, Mark … and so many other human beings
