This for all of you Kossaks who love photography, a trip to Costa Rica in 2009, and some pics that speak to me of that beautiful place still.

It has been an intellect- and spirit-saving experience, finding this cyber-community, linking to a world far beyond my little one at my feet every day- a world of warm, funny folk who believe as I do in a fairer, more socially conscious world than the one where we find ourselves struggling to keep hope alive.
The diarists and commenters here have expanded my knowledge beyond any expectations, and continue to do so. I come here daily to garner new viewpoints and participate in discussions about what we can do to change the status quo and help midwife a new paradigm. The planet deserves good stewardship.

The heart vibe here is very strong, I have cried many a tear at the generosity and goodwill displayed on these pages, it's really inspiring to feel connected to such a kind, thoughtful community.

So I keep faithfully coming back here, there is no other blog around that even comes close to feeding my soul like dKos does, I draw courage from so many contributors here, your tough-mindedness and caring, your hunger for the truths that set us free.

I find it interesting how the meaning of such familiar words and concepts as liberty and liberality are being reframed.

For example, the root of both words is from the Latin word for freedom, yet they have apparently become descriptions of two political poles. I say apparently because perception may as well be reality in today's politics, yet i believe it is vital for us to parse how the message becomes the identity, in the sense of how such a meme can supply a sense of belonging, giving a seemingly stable point of reference to folks who feel at sea without one.
