Walking through the Tenderloin

  
Traveling through the desert brings me peace. There is something about the distant horizon, sand, and sunlight that illustrates both possibility and desolation. The landscape balances my optimist and pessimist.

The ocean does the same thing. So does looking at a star-filled sky. So does walking through the Tenderloin.

The Wedding at Ocean's Edge

They were married at the ocean's edge by Sister Mary Ralph. It was beautiful, and they were handsome. We all laughed and cried and sang and loved.

That is the purpose of weddings and marriage. That is a right that will never be taken away.
