We need Judie’s timeless wisdom now more than ever!
Falling Off the Wall
By Judie Brown In a whimsical nursery rhyme we learn that when Humpty Dumpty fell off the wall, “all the king’s horses and all the king’s men could not put Humpty together again.” One presumes that once an egg crashes to the ground, like truth, it cannot be repaired unless vigilance is pursued in the quest to do so.
