Last Christmas a blast of polar air chilled temperatures down below freezing for three straight days, unusual weather conditions for extreme south Georgia.

My friend’s lemon tree, full of lemons, froze.

When the thaw came every fruit rotted and all the leaves dropped.

We nearly despaired.

Instead we focused hope and blessings on that bare tree.

Now that tree is glorious with green leaves and golden fruit, genuine south Georgia Miracle Lemons.

The Purple Dragon spoke:
“I was talking to a friend, a man who is considered certifiably crazy by the mental health industry.
“This friend explicated for me his unique worldview.
“Of course I listened until he was finished before I described the way I see the world, which is radically different.
“My friend listened attentively, then stated simply: ‘That works for you. ‘
“I agreed: ‘Just like yours works for you. ‘
“We both nodded, then changed the subject.”
The Purple Dragon smiled.
“It was the most civil discourse I have ever enjoyed with a human. “

“It’s nice, to see The People win!” smiled the Purple Dragon.

The Dragon’s friends had been sued by the city they love, after they worked to gather enough petitions to add to their city’s charter an amendment ensuring citizens the RIGHT TO CLEAN WATER.

Enough petitions got the amendment a spot on the ballot and more than 80% of voters approved it – but the city council objected, and took the group to court.

The judge ruled in the group’s favor!

The amendment must be added!

VICTORY!
