What’s a good anecdote about an antidote for despair? Here’s one:

It’s EPISODE #154: ANTIDOTE FOR DESPAIR. One of the many pleasures of wandering the wilderness is you can escape the despair of society. For a half day or so, if not forever. Walt Whitman did it, as did Georgia O’Keeffe. ALSO: Have you heard that we can stop global warming in as little as three years? A few more years to take it down a degree or so, but “stopping” is a pretty big deal! Also, there is no such thing as an alpha male wolf. So much to learn!

And much to hear, with new soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver and a new radio sermon by Ken Layne. Photo: Georgia O’Keeffe (Evening Walk, Ghost Ranch) by John Loengard, 1966 (printed later); National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution; © John Loengard.
