It's Time
Put a woman in charge
“The time has come. We've got to turn this world around. Call the mothers. Call the daughters. We need the sisters of mercy now. She'll be a hero, not a fool. She's got the power to change the rules.” - Put a Woman in Charge by John Lewis Parker, Keb' Mo' & Beth Nielsen Chapman.
I’m going to let this song speak for itself and encourage each of us to do what we can to take Kamala Harris to the White House. It’s time.

Great songs! Thank you.
My take:
I am Not an Island
I'm not an island
I'm a woman
I'm a lover, I am a giver
I have sisters
I'm a woman
I'm not an island
I am not a piece of property
That you can or can't afford
I am not your trader's favorite stock
But I'm not to be ignored
I am strong within my boundaries
I am not your fair absurd
I'm the fount of our salvation
And I will have the final word.
I'm not an island
I'm a woman
I'm a lover, I am a giver
I have sisters
I'm a woman
I'm not an island.
I am the mighty hurricane
That will beat upon your shores
I am a resurrection
I am knocking on your doors
Do you think that I am kidding
Do even think at all
While you play your favorite pastimes
And throw your favorite balls
I'm not an island
I'm a woman
I'm a lover, I am a giver
I have sisters
I'm a woman
I'm not an island.
I am thriving in the sunlight
I am living my ballet
I will harken to that music
As I hear my sisters play
With one step for the future
And one for all mankind
We shall weave this dance together
And advance in pace and kind.
I'm not an island
I'm a woman
I'm a lover, I am a giver
I have sisters
I'm a woman
I'm not an island.
