Vacation's End

It's a new year and instead of the usual optimism that each year brings, my mood is quite glum. Purposely, I sequestered myself from the news during my month-long vacation abroad. Surrounding myself with the love, joy & laughter of friends and family, the world seemed bright, cheerful and safe. I felt unconquerable!!

The deaths of the children of Gaza brought me back to the callous nature of reality & marked the end of my wishful thinking.....




It will be interesting to see how Obama's administration handles this ruinous & demented state of affairs.
