Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

Now Leaving Coalwood

  "Can't just dream your way out of Coalwood, Homer."
   From the Movie October Sky
 
If you have ever seen October Sky
 
 
*and if you have not, you should,
 
you know it is about putting muscle behind the dream
 
and the dream ahead of the fear
 
And understanding that when you do those things for yourself
- When you give yourself permission to be more than they say you are -
 
You do those things for many

And many are  better off because you did
and that's poetiquejustis
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.  
Joshua 1:9
