Let's define progress.

“One of the great tragedies of life is that men seldom bridge the gulf between practice and profession, between doing and saying. A persistent schizophrenia leaves so many of us tragically divided against ourselves. On the one hand, we proudly profess certain sublime and noble principles, but on the other hand, we sadly practise the very antithesis of these principles. How often are our lives characterised by a high blood pressure of creeds and an anaemia of deeds! We talk eloquently about our commitment to the principles of Christianity, and yet our lives are saturated with the practices of paganism. We proclaim our devotion to democracy, but we sadly practise the very opposite of the democratic creed. We talk passionately about peace, and at the same time we assiduously prepare for war. We make our fervent pleas for the high road of justice, and then we tread unflinchingly the low road of injustice. This strange dichotomy, this agonising gulf between the ought and the is, represents the tragic theme of man's earthly pilgrimage.”  ― Martin Luther King Jr., Strength to Love

Everything we do should have "purpose".

Got your shots?

Election 2022 has finally happened.  The people who voted have made their selections of who will lead this country.  Those of us who decided not to vote, let it up to those of us who did.   The 2020 presidential election had the highest voter turnout of the 21st Century and that was only 66.8% of eligible voters.
