Today I’m thinking about the 1914 Christmas Day truce, between German and British soldiers. It was a peace, tentatively established between individuals, without the intervention of politicians or Army generals. I am always amazed by the idea of this decision, made in opposing trenches, to see one another as individuals. In contemporary warfare, soldiers are routinely repositioned to make sure that this familiarity between enemies cannot develop. Peace is possible.

I heart NYC. Today I saw a old man riding a bike, in a skirt and a pink cowboy hat. I ate puerto rican food and saw a gay pride parade.

I have watched this way too many times today, which you will understand if you are a fan of @MsGladysKnight, the late, great Etta James or @ChakaKhan! Etta with a gentle hand on Chaka Khan. Such quality in these women’s voices; phrasing, tone, movement. Authenitic.
