Civil disobedience and Dandelions
By Leaflin Lore Winecoff ~~ Civil disobedience and Dandelions... … are often on my mind. What does civil disobedience mean to you? Have you ever been confronted with a choice to do what is ethical, true …versus what is lawful, or profitable? Do you have the courage to choose what is ethical, when it goes against the grain?
