Thread Name: 'Best Thoughts' ...for a Union Maid
Subject: RE: 'Best Thoughts' ...for a Union Maid
Not sure if I did this right. But when I was thinking about what Mick said, and the courage it requires to see farther down the path, this song kept coming to me. Maybe someone (Joe?) can make the reference below a clicky thing. If not, just know that i'm singing it for you today.

Also, I'm honored to be included in a choir singing for an interdenominational MLK celebration next Monday night. Among our music is "We Shall Overcome". That, also, will be sung with you and your family in my heart.

Mayhap it is fodder for another thread, but the ancestor of this song is "I Shall Overcome". There can never be a 'WE" until there are enough people willing to say "I". Thank you for your courage.

Dani
