"I solemnly swear (or affirm, as the case may be,) that in all things appertaining to the trial of the impeachment of Donald J. Trump, now pending, I will do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws: so help me God." This was the oath taken by all Senators before the impeachment trial began. But the oath begs the question... Is impartial justice even possible in these divided times? It's likely that the votes will be split along party lines in the Senate... just as they were in the House. Justice is meant to be blind, but we keep wearing those red and blue tinted glasses as a nation. Where does that leave the truth? What does impartial justice look like? Stay tuned... Whatever the outcome of the impeachment trial, we're going to need a lot of purple thinking to move beyond it together, as one nation.

It's 2020!
Happy New Year! Can we move into the New Year with 20/20 vision? What would that kind of clarity look like? Can we approach each other with... An open mind? An open heart? 2020 will certainly bring an invitation to division and discord. How will we respond? Will we jump in blindly? Or will we try to see clearly and and consider the facts. We all look at the world through our our own unique shade of blue or red tinted glasses. Can we trade them for purple glasses instead? Let's make a promise to one another to try to look at the world together. Let's move into 2020 with 20/20 vision! |
