To Laura, my Granddaughter:
Some Day!
Not someday, as in someday there will be peace in Israel/Palestine.
No. Some Day a woman will be elected President of the United States. I know this fact but not the date.
I realize this for two reasons.
First, the world is full of mysterious motion, beyond our immediate comprehension. When I was born, my mother could not have her own bank account. Unimaginable, isn’t it?
Second, Laura, the world will soon be yours. The road is long and hard. Begin to imagine what isn’t to make its absence unimaginable.
