Pandemic

January 22, 2021 By KPCUpdate 4 Comments

To state the obvious, the past year was a dumpster fire … aboard a train wreck … hurtling over a cliff … into a school of Great White sharks. I am writing this on January 21, 2021, one year to the day since the first confirmed case of COVID-19, the virus that started in China… Read More »

Thoughts on Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Letter From A Birmingham Jail”

January 12, 2021 By Kent Keller 2 Comments

Every year, as we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I recommend reading his remarkable “Letter From A Birmingham Jail.” I am recommending it again this year. This letter, written April 16, 1963 from a jail cell in Birmingham, AL (and substantially redacted later), is convicting, inspiring, and motivating. I point out a few highlights… Read More »

December 19, 2020 By Kent Keller Leave a Comment

[This is an updated version of a blog I wrote a few years ago at this time. I hope you enjoy it.] ******* I don’t like it. How’s that for a short blog? Well, actually it’s more of a love-hate relationship. I hate how short the days are; as I mentioned in my “Summer Solstice”… Read More »

What Do We Have to be Thankful For?

November 19, 2020 By Kent Keller Leave a Comment

Note: I wrote this blog a few years ago and repost it every year at this time. This year – this incredibly difficult, challenging, draining, maddening, unprecedented, never-ending trial of a year – while we have had to deal with problems none of us have ever had to confront before, we have also been reminded… Read More »

Only in Miami / Only in America

October 31, 2020 By KPCUpdate 2 Comments

Mondays are my day off, so last Monday afternoon I went to vote at the Coral Gables Library. (The miamidade.gov website said the wait time was 00.00; turns out not everything you see on the Internet is true. Who knew?) But the line outside wasn’t too long, and pretty soon I was inside waiting to… Read More »
