Today’s Reflection:
I’m starting the new week
with good vibes that the monsoon will return today.
During my stay at the
hospital and rehab center, my glasses go way out of alignment. I took time this
morning and took them in. In 5 minutes, they fit like a glove again. Yeah!
I ordered groceries
from Walmart this morning. They said some items would come today, some
tomorrow. Then the first order came and while he was bringing them to my couch
I got another txt from Walmart saying my order would arrive at 1pm. OK…whatever.
Historical events
Good to know:
Thunderbird and Whale's Cosmic
Battle© artbyanthonyduenas
Earth-shaking battles between sky and
sea play out in the dramatic legend of Thunderbird and Whale. When the enormous
Whale Chief swallowed too many people, throwing nature out of balance, the
mighty Thunderbird swooped down from the mountains to restore order.
Their epic confrontation explains
natural phenomena across the Pacific Northwest. Lightning flashes are
Thunderbird's blinking eyes, thunder is the beating of its massive wings, and
earthquakes occur when the two titans clash along the coastline.
This powerful story served both cultural and practical purposes. Beyond its spiritual significance, it preserved knowledge about tsunami warnings—when coastal waters suddenly recede, people knew to seek higher ground immediately, just as their ancestors learned from the legend.
Picture of the Day:
Professional Award Winner: Northern Cardinal
A red male Northern Cardinal seems to float above the snowy ground,
the crest feathers on its head blown backward in the wind as it flies in
profile in front of gray plant stalks. The bird’s three-wing feathers touch the
white carpet of snow, its shadow connecting below. Steve
