Recovery, Happy first-day-of-Kwanzaa, and don't forget Boxing Day!

And just like that, it's over. Except for the digging out . . . and except that for some of us, it's NOT over.


Happy Kwanzaa!
If you celebrate Kwanzaa, of course, the holiday has only just begun! Today is the day to especially celebrate Umoja, or Unity--something we all could use a good deal more of, in my home country of the United States.



At the basis of unity is shared respect and--yes--love.

And Boxing Day!
Don't forget today is ALSO Boxing Day in much of the English-speaking world! This year, more than ever, it might be a great moment to consider a large, charitable donation.

IMAGES: Many thanks to Brian Gordon and his Fowl Language cartoons, for today's grin, to Jeffrey St. Clair via LinkedIn and SlideShare for the beautiful Umoja Unity design, and to the Tumblr of Adam Hernandez AKA "Slim Baby!" (via Pinterest), with thanks to TinEye Reverse Image Search, for the Cornel West quote and image.
