Something Beautiful

Robert Shetterly & "Americans Who Tell the Truth"

Again and again I'm drawn to the idea of the Americans Who Tell the Truth project.   I'm not crazy about the artist's style but something deep within me responds to the basic idea of offering visual and narrative portraits of admirable Americans.   Artist Robert Shetterly began this project after 9/11, in response to all the lies that were being told to the American people at that time.   May we someday be worthy of greatness again. 

List of people

This might seem totally off the wall.  And it might be entirely off the wall too.  Sometimes lists of people seem beautiful to me, and energizing as well.   Just now I was researching a bit on "non-theistic religion" which took me to the Ethical Culture Society which in turn led to the Fieldson School of Riverdale, NY.   And then I found this list of people who had attended or graduated from the Fieldston School and there was just something wonderful about it.
