Dealey Plaza, Dallas, this morning |
The world has its eye on Dallas today, the 50th anniversary of the death of JFK. I love my city, and on this day, I'm proud of it. With all the media coverage and editorial - non stop - on TV and radio, it wouldn't be a wonder if Dallas just buckled. It's a lot of responsibility to be this city, the one on whose soil Camelot was lost.
And Dallas didn't deliver the perfect day today, no sunshine or warm temps. Instead, it's raw and intemperate. Like it's an actor in a play. Dallas reflected the world's temperature.
Lee Park, Dallas, this afternoon On my corner, flags are at half staff. The leaves have fallen all at once. |
A nest in branches, such a symbol of resilience |
It was a sad day, and yet even in it's winter-ness, there's life, and hope.
I'm proud of Dallas today.
"One person can make a difference, and everyone should try."
- JFK
Feel Beautiful,
Elizabeth
