Eating plastic food
from a plastic plate
Looking for swaying grasses
in memories of the sea
Forces pulling –
sorrow-drenched knowing
Bullets piercing –
Akron to Bucha
Words ripping –
Los Angeles to Tallahassee
Stands not taken in D.C.
Stands taken in Tehran
Protests in Paris
Silence in Xinjiang
The tide of authoritarianism
is not the sea that I seek
The waves of anti-Blackness
are not the ride that I will take
An adventure-minded lass from early on, Georgia Sanders has wandered the U.S. & Europe enough to know that the Schengen Zone is one of her favorite places on the planet! Upon returning from a 3-month stay in Florence, Italy in 2014, Georgia was inspired through what she calls a “personal renaissance” to found THIS online travel & culture magazine CultureHoney.com! Dreams of Paris always at the top of mind, the Celtic Christian spirituality developed in Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England has been winning her heart in recent years. An outgrowth from the magazine is the recently launched CultureHoneyTouring.com. The maiden voyages for this new venture are small group pilgrimages to Sacred Ireland and Iona, Scotland! Georgia hopes that many Culture Honey readers will be inspired to join in these journeys, commencing in September 2021!
We are just finishing up with several sugar-heavy holidays: Christmas, Valentine’s Day, and Easter. This is the perfect time to make a sugar change! Have you ever wondered what your life would be like with less sugar? I’m not talking about fruit sugar, or the sugar your body creates as it breaks down carbohydrates. I’m talking about added sugar, the kind that sweetens cookies, cakes, cereal, coffee’s, muffins, chocolate, candies, sauces…the list goes on.
