I don't know exactly why I thought of the song "Stand By Me" as I sat down to work this morning, but I did. The thought didn't go away as I tried to start writing, so I went to youtube and found a couple of videos. I thought I would post them in case anyone out there might be interested. Maybe, as cheesy as you might find the videos, one or the other will resonate with you. They sure are meaningful for me. The first one is by Ben King, the composer, bless his soul. Sorry for any ads up-front, and best wishes...

A World Perspective
Although I agree with Maya Angelou about the inappropriate paraphrasing of the "drum major" quotation, this quotation makes sense to me.
