A grey and overcast sort of image for a grey and overcast sort of day in downtown Richmond, Virginia. Thanks to Sky Noir, who let me snap this photo from his office window, as it was a more intriguing view than mine.

Today I think that I'll let my house speak for itself. I will leave you with some words from Dr. King that give me some pause for thought.

"When we look at modern man, we have to face the fact that modern man suffers from a kind of poverty of the spirit, which stands in glaring contrast with a scientific and technological abundance. We've learned to fly the air as birds, we've learned to swim the seas as fish, yet we haven't learned to walk the Earth as brothers and sisters."
