Though now a cliche, the Peace Sign was once an effective symbol for positive change. And positive always overcomes negative.Mike Brubakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13065245846262417519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743429387466266100.post-8931225113896616412017-02-12T14:31:33.123-08:002017-02-12T14:31:33.123-08:00Good for you on ALL levels: resiter, persister, ti...Good for you on ALL levels: resiter, persister, tie-dyer!

I find being around like-minded people boosts my spirits when I feel like tearing my hair out. I bought a tie-dyed shirt last year too! At my age!
