*September 6, 2019*

*“It will be great if human beings were great at being human and if all of
mankind were made up of all kind women and kind men.  It would be wonderful
if common knowledge was knowledge commonly known and if the light from
being enlightened into every heart was shown.  It would glorious if
neighbors were neighborly and indifference a forgotten word.  It would be
awesome if we shared everything and being greedy was absurd.  It would be
spectacular if the golden rule was golden to every man and the good things
that we ever did was everything that we can.”*
