Godspeed Molly, I could never thank you enough

I have to believe that Molly's work was done here on Earth. She knew that we were well on our way. She saw the November Elections. She saw the protest in DC on the 27th of January.

I can't say it any better than the words on Martin Luther King, Jr:

Well, I don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead. But it doesn't matter with me now. Because I've been to the mountaintop. And I don't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over. And I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people will get to the promised land. And I'm happy, tonight. I'm not worried about anything. I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.

Molly showed us the way. In her honor, I will continue the good fight.

Thank you Molly for showing me the road. You will never be forgotten.

Your voice will be missed, Molly.

7. I'm only learning about what it is.

I have been wondering what the Bhagavad Gita means when it refers to "the lotus feet of Lord Krsna". It occurred to me, when I read that Molly Ivins had died and I was thinking about what she meant to me and how different things would be if she had never existed, that the lotus feet of Lord Krsna is/are people like Molly Ivins and Dr. Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy and . . . .

I will definitely be banging a pot for Molly/U.S. soon.

Harebo!
