My bottlecap fortune right before I left Charlottesville! How true! I took a pretty straight shot here to ATL from Asheville. Cruising down 23 was easy last night but today the road was full of zooming “cages.” I arrived in the Peach State this afternoon. Fortunately, a friend lives here, so I am crashing her place for the next two days. My main plan includes safe scooting-as the drivers here are aggressive, unaware and speedy. The roads are also horrible.
Other plans are to check out the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum, Martin Luther Kings Gravesite, the King center for Non-Violent Social Change, and an oil change for Audrey. Right now I am writing from Java Lourdes, sippin’ on a strong cup of organic Timor and listening to the open mic crooners. Paz y Amor-Alix
Peace comes from being able to contribute the best that we have, and all that we are, toward creating a world that supports everyone. But it is also securing the space for others to contribute the best that they have and all that they are.
