Who would have thought that Jewel could offer so much insight?! The first time I heard this song I was in the Chapel of Transfiguration in Moose, WY and it brought tears to my eyes. Yesterday, I just happened to reach for a random mixed CD from high school when I was in the car and had no phone signal, and this song came on. And again, it brought tears to my eyes.

It seems that the racial tensions that have plagued our country have come to my home state, and it makes my heart hurt. Once again, a black man’s name has been reduced to a hashtag. And Brangelina’s breakup is the top headline. Something has to change.

Food for thought…
