As
By Stevie Wonder


​As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early may
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all that's born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always
(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky)
Always
(Until the ocean covers every mountain high)
Always
(Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)
Always
(Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
No no her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
As today I know I'm living
But tomorrow could make me the past
But that I mustn't fear
For I'll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
(Until the day is night and night becomes the day)
Always
(Until the trees and seas just up and fly away)
Always
(Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four)
Always
(Until the day that is the day that are no more)
Did you know you're loved by somebody
(Until the day the earth starts turnin' right to left)
Always
(Until the earth just for the sun denies itself)
I'll be lovin' you forever
(Until dear mother nature says her work is through)
Always
(Until the day that you are me and I am you)
Always
(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean severs every mountain high)
Always mm mm
We all know sometimes life hates and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your lifetimes that and twice it's double
That God knew exactly where he wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it, but not of it
You're not helpin' to make this earth
A place sometimes called hell
Change your words into truths
And then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky

... was one of the most widely-respected "conductors" of the Underground Railroad...the secret network that helped free slaves. He had been caught several times and was handed down a variety of punishments...usually a stiff fine, some lashings and public embarrassment. The greater risk was being sold into slavery...a punishment that many conductors came to live with if caught. In September 1848, he stood on the steps of the Kent County Court House in Delaware to face his punishment...living the next 14 years as a slave...sold to the highest bidder. As it turns out, the man who bought Burris was an abolitionist using funds raised to help with freeing the man.

The winning bidder was Isaac Flint who set Burris free shortly after his purchase. Burris moved to California where he would later die in 1863. Fast forward 168 years and Delaware is only now granting him a pardon. This pardon is an extraordinary act in recognition of a historic wrong that cannot be corrected by a single stroke of a pen, said the governor. But while we cannot change what was done more than 150 years ago, we can ensure that Mr. Burris legacy is appropriately recognized and celebrated. We affirm today that history will no longer record his actions as criminal, but rather as acts of freedom and bravery in the face of injustice.

Yes I am the AUTHOR of that viral publication.  It was inspired by my LAST W-2 supervisor, I shall not name her; however, I really am glad I resigned before becoming what was formerly known a POSTAL.  I will not post any of that publication here, anyone can just BING SEARCH the title: "Thank You Stupidvisor" or read in my community forum Oh No she didn't

​That publication inspired this post about a article titled "The Email Message That Almost Got Me Fired"

Here is an abstract:

Dear Liz,
I am ready to walk  into my boss’s office and quit, I’m so frustrated. I’m writing to you instead because I know there’s got to be a better way to handle my short-tempered boss, but I don’t know what that other way is. I’m sick of her hair-trigger temper.
I almost got fired today because of a harmless email message I sent Sandra, my boss. She has no patience at all (not just with me but with all of us) and she flies off the handle over the smallest things.
