This is somewhat related to my series set in Madison, TX.  One of the things I wanted to focus on in my contemporary romances was the complicated history Texas has with its history.  This morning, I noticed this on my newsletter feed.

Save as much as you can.  Pull up everybody.  We need all of us to succeed in order to succeed.  Try to rectify the wrongs you've done in the past the best you can.  Admit when you were wrong and try to do better.
