Bakersfield

We don't know what we don't know. It always surprises me that more of the folks that I run into don't suspect that there is something, lurking, just beyond their vision, that will change their life in a profound and essential way. We were in a fast food restaurant in Bakersfield over the weekend. (Always a bad way to start the day.) I saw a woman with six children- ranging in age from about 13 to an infant. Of the six, three appeared to have Down's syndrome.
Sometimes I have to sing for my supper. There is simply no best way to do this. At least, none that works in all circumstances.
