Bene Gesserit wisdom for this election year
something to remember from a post I wrote about 2 years ago

Governments, if they endure, always tend increasingly toward aristocratic forms.
No government in history has been known to evade this pattern.And as the aristocracy develops, government tends more and more
to act exclusively in the interests of the ruling class –
whether that class be hereditary royalty,
oligarchs of financial empires,
or entrenched bureaucracy.Politics as Repeat Phenomenon:

Emily update – 07/01 – rehab?
July 01, 2008 at 09:29 PM EDT
Tonight at 7pm marked 3 weeks since the accident on June 10th. Emily remains stable but is still unconscious. My parents, Jody and I were excited to see her yawning for the first time today. There is also still some very slight movement of the head and her eyes are wide open most of the time that we visit with her.My parents have begun to meet with representatives from two rehab facilities and are hoping to reach a decision within the next week about where to take Emily. Please pray that they would have wisdom in this decision.
We continue to pray for her full recovery. Tonight my parents read Romans 15:13 and found it extremely comforting during this time of transition (we move tomorrow) and waiting for Emily. They would like me to share it with all of you and thank you for the overwhelming support you have shown to our entire family.
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him and may you overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:13
Please continue to pray and hope with us that Emily will be restored.
