A TOWNSHIP TAX www.currentinwestfield.com

Township approves $15 million bond split into three series, the first of which is $5.7 million

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

Existing MacGregor Park boundaries.

The Park is 96 acres and has several miles of trails.

Hinkle Road

U.S. 31

The Westfield Washington Township Board approved a $5.7 million bond Oct. 23 by a 2-1 vote. The bond COVER STORY creates a 1.36 cent tax for certain residents within the township, in addition to their regular property taxes. Board President David Gill was the sole “no” vote.

Trustee Danielle Carey Tolan said the bond will Tolan fund land acquisition for open spaces and nature preservation, specifically near MacGregor Park, as land becomes available for sale.

Westfield Washington Township became a parks department in 1997, which is when the township started collecting a park tax.

Its main park is MacGregor Park, northeast of U.S. 31 and Ind. 38. The initial 40 acres of the park were donated in 1991, and the park has since grown to 96 acres with several trails. The township also maintains Redbud Park, which is less than 1 acre, behind its office at 1549 East Greyhound Pass.

“One of our top priorities (in the 2016 strategic plan) was land acquisition to expand MacGregor or a park like MacGregor in the township,” Carey Tolan said. “We are doing our research and our due diligence, and with the growth of everything, we chose to seek out a bond. We looked at all of our options, and we decided to be conservative and go after a $15 million series of bonds.

Our first captures a third of that at $5.7 million. That doesn’t mean we will use the rest of the bond, it just gives us the option. We did that because we didn’t want to incur additional expenses on the bond.”

Carey Tolan said the township doesn’t have specific plans on where to purchase land because it depends on when and what becomes available. She said the bond is important now so the township has the money ready to purchase land as soon as it becomes available before developers buy it. If the township waits until land becomes available to request a bond, developers may purchase it prior to the township ever receiving money.

“The biggest argument is, ‘Where are the plans?’ Well, we need the money to capture

the land,” Carey Tolan said. “Really, the only plan is by what we’ve set forth, which is we want to acquire land to acquire more green space to possibly expand MacGregor Park.”

Gill said he would have rather tabled the proposal and further informed the public prior to voting, which is why he voted no.

“I don’t think that this project has been vetted enough. I don’t think the information has been (presented) to the public and they understand it enough,” he said. “I’m going to vote no because I think we should table this and do a better job of letting the public

know of what’s the pluses and minuses of this, OK? Because once you vote, once this thing starts down the road, you can’t pull it back.”

Erica Strahm, who is running for Westfield Washington Township Board, said if she had been Strahm on the board, she wouldn’t necessarily have voted no but would have wanted more analysis before voting.

“I really think alternative ways should be

exhausted before we take out debt,” she said. “That includes grants, that includes capital campaigns, that includes gifts, that includes talking to the city and the county about matching funds or getting money from them as well. I just think the public deserved better.”

Strahm also said she thinks a referendum should’ve been explored.

Continued from Page 14 home value of $142,000 or less, and township residents with an assessed home value of $110,000 or less due to property tax caps on higher-priced homes. The second bond, if needed, would begin in 2021 at an additional cent, bringing the tax up to 2.36 cents per $100 of assessed value after mortgage and homestead deductions. If the third bond in the series is requested in 2023, the estimated tax rate would rise to 3.24 cents per $100 of assessed value after mortgage and homestead deductions. The bonds would be paid over 19 1/2 years each.

“I’m trying to be visionary. I’m trying to make sure we do it now so that in 15 or 20 years, we aren’t saying, ‘Let’s do this now’ and land prices are going to be upwards of triple what we’re looking at now,” Carey Tolan said.

Because the tax caps prevent the township from receiving taxes from homes more than $142,000 within city limits and $110,000 within township limits, some residents are concerned the tax affects those who can least afford it.

Carey Tolan, however, said people who request aid from the township are typically renters, not homeowners, and therefore wouldn’t pay the tax.

“Most people coming to the township in an emergency or needing assistance don’t own homes, they rent,” she said. “So, understanding that some homes are under the tax cap here could be affected and are on a limited income, yes, I understand that debate. But really, I don’t see $4 a year being a burden on someone.”

During a public hearing Oct. 23 prior to the bond approval, several members of the

BOARD SUPPORTS LAND ACQUISITION IN 2017 RESOLUTION In January 2017, the township board of trustees passed a resolution to support the trustee to “undertake the acquisition of additional park lands near and adjacent to MacGregor Park … specifically in the area east of U.S. Highway 31, west of Hinkle Road, north of State Highway 38 and south of 216th Street.” The resolution also states the board agreed to take reasonable actions to support the acquisition and acknowledged certain agreements related to the acquisition could represent multi-year commitments. The resolution was approved 2-0, with board members David Gill and Gary Southerland voting in favor of the resolution and Carl Steele not present. public spoke in favor and against the bond.

Real estate broker Melody Jones, a Westfield resident who previously worked as the director of the township parks department and then moved onto the city parks department, spoke in favor of the proposal.

“The bottom line is if we don’t set aside the beautiful land we have that’s not developed in Washington Township now, it will be gone,” she said. “We know how fast our community is growing. The land between MacGregor and Bray is some of the most beautiful land in the township, and you don’t think a developer will want to snatch that up? I think they will. Having the quality of life we enjoy so much here in Westfield and Washington Township is because of the amenities that we have.”

ESSAY Nothing finite

LETTER

Disappointed in Kavanaugh vote

Commentary by Terry Anker As long as there have been humans, we have flung our collective hopes to that which lies beyond our immediate grasp. Early explorers followed rivers and paths seeking the outer bounds of what might be called home. For their part, sailors would collect provisions, rig whatever might float and wade into the crashing surf knowing, if only through instinct, that there must be something more – something just past what we currently understand as tangible, risking life and family on a bet for the unknowable.

Too often, the quest would leave them consumed by an angry sea.

But then, some would find a humble rock cast upon the waters and there build a civilization.

This fortnight past, I found myself enjoying the hospitality of a stony coastline on a series of volcanic islands, part of an archipelago extending into the Atlantic Ocean cast from Saharan Africa. In sailing around the landmass, one could imagine the vast and incalculable expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. In it, we are bolstered in the reassurance of such human striving. Certainly, we are creatures capable of both evil and glory. The bad in us is all too obvious. Still, in seeing the vastness of the rolling sea laid out, one is struck by our capacity to strive for something more. As the isle was the ultimate rigging point for Columbus and his crews bound for discovery, we wondered what must have been on their minds as they left the craggy but familiar shores to head due west toward the setting sun.

Much has transpired in these many millennia. Yet, there remains infinite discovery to be made — the bounds of space, the depths of oceans and the components of our own lives chief among them.

Lost and still not found Commentary by Danielle Wilson That’s it! I am done with debit cards. Sure, they’re great when you don’t have cash and you can remember your PIN. HUMOR And I do love that they masquerade as credit without the annoying interest rates and accompanying, “Let’s go to Vegas!” mindset. But enough, already. I can’t handle the inevitable breakup that comes after I accidentally throw it away at a Meijer gas station or one of my darling teens loses it somewhere in the landfill she calls a room.

The card that I have now, which is actually my third since April, is MIA. I’m confident the aforementioned child has it, but she swears to the contrary. I know I should cancel it immediately, but I’ve only had this one for six weeks. I haven’t even memorized the numbers yet!

And that’s the real rub. My debit card is part of the reason I survive as a working mom. When I have to start over with a

whole new set of expiration dates and CVV codes, life comes to a grinding halt. Suddenly, I’m receiving “payment could not be processed” emails from forgotten accounts with automatic bill pay and emergency texts from hangry kids who can’t add money to their lunch accounts. And my weirdly close relationship with Amazon Prime takes a major punch to the gut. I can no longer buy two, 5-foot posable skeletons with accompanying eyepatches without getting out of my seat and going to find my purse. Can you imagine? The horror!

So, I’m holding out hope that my pretty little DC shows up soon. I really can’t go through another break-up.

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “A person should always choose a costume which is in direct contrast to her own personality.”

— Lucy Van Pelt, It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

Editor, We were very disappointed (in Republican Senators’ votes) for Judge Kavanaugh! Not only because of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, but because of Judge Kavanaugh’s rulings against environmental concerns. When are they going to address all the rollbacks by this administration that are detrimental to our environment? Do they not care about our children and grandchildren? Do they not understand the numerous and supported scientific research to reduce the effects of climate change, and what we need to do in the next 10 years? What about the health of U.S. citizens? The scientists have proven that these rollbacks will be harmful to humans.

What about the rights of women, LGBTQ and immigrants? We are so disappointed in their vote for what is morally right for all human beings, not just their chosen few!

What will their children think when they look back at their father or mother for taking away the individual rights of others?

With their vote, they taught children everyone will not be treated equally. The rulings in the Supreme Court will tear this country apart, and they are a major part of it. How is it possible to have such little compassion for the future of the nation?

While we are talking about reducing taxation and providing incentive for economic growth, let’s talk reducing the recently raised and indexed gasoline excise tax. The price of gasoline has both a direct and indirect influence on the economy. First, the cost of gasoline that companies pay to deliver their goods to Indiana is passed on to consumers in the price of the goods. That’s why grocery prices go up when gasoline prices go up.

Second, tourism suffers when gasoline prices go up. People don’t take weekend trips to Indiana Beach, Holiday World or local festivals as often when gasoline prices are high.

All forms of taxation have a negative impact on the Hoosier economy. The more we reduce taxation across the board, the more money will be spent in Indiana that will result in a more vibrant, balanced economy from which we all will benefit.

Vote for Neiling Editor, As a retired teacher, I’m very concerned about the future of public education in Indiana. Being on a fixed income, I’m also concerned about the continued rising costs and access of health care.

Amie Neiling is the best candidate to represent us as District 32 state representative because she has experience in both public education and the medical field. Amie is a registered nurse and teaches high school students to prepare them for medical careers.

Amie will make sure that our students have access to excellence in education, and she will look out for our health care quality. Her handson experience in both education and the medical field will greatly benefit Hoosiers. Amie will be a strong advocate for us and our families!

Amie Neiling’s expertise and intelligence will serve District 32 well in Indianapolis. Your vote for Amie Neiling is a vote to prioritize your family’s health and ensure that our children receive a quality education.

Bagel, flagel, shmagel Commentary by Dick Wolfsie When I stepped inside a New York deli recently, I witnessed something peculiar. People weren’t eating traditional HUMOR bagels — those rings of hockey puck-shaped dough that have been boiled and then baked to a perfect brownish sheen. Instead, they were eating something called a flagel, also known as a shmagel. Shmagel/flagel, whatever. They looked delicious.

These bagels have been shmooshed (Yiddish for “flattened”) into the size of 45 rpm records before being put in the oven. One flagel or shmagel might not fill up your stomach, but it fills up your plate.

Some diners spread cream cheese over the top; others tried to slice the flagel the normal way, a risky maneuver given that flagels are half the height and twice the diameter of bagels. Some people also were putting lox on top, right over the onions or poppy seeds, or any of the 22 varieties.

There are websites dedicated to flagels, and other sites by people who want nothing more than to shmear the good name of bagel purveyors. One woman complained: “Flagels were invented 20 years ago, and I

may have gotten one of those originals this morning.”

Here’s another comment: “I really liked them. Do they have fewer calories than the regular bagels?”

Yes, and a pound of matzo weighs less than a pound of corned beef.

I dug deeper online to further educate myself about flagels. Where were they invented? And how had I missed out on this earth-baking sensation prior to last week?

One site warned of the side effects of digesting this product, including headache, stomach cramps and irritability. I grew up in a home where everyone felt this way after every meal. Oops, sorry! I was reading a website that came up about the antibiotic Flagyl, not flagels.

When I got back home to Indy, I wondered if I could figure out a way to bring flagels to the Midwest and make a lot of money. Actually, I don’t think I’m smart enough. But some Einstein will figure it out.

Root31 set for Park Street

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Angela Gapinski’s online business Root31 will soon become a standalone building at 226 Park St. The shop will NEW BIZ sell succulents and air plants and offer classes, such as wreath-making.

Gapinski majored in art in college but she missed working with plants. Her parents have owned Heartland Growers in Westfield for 34 years, so she started merchandising for a garden center. In 2013, she launched Root31, which allowed her to design ecofriendly bouquets for weddings. She also offered classes and participated in pop-ups, like the Suburban Indy Home and Outdoor Living Fall Show.

Now, Gapinski looks forward to operating out of her own building. She will continue to create bouquets for weddings.

“It’ll be really nice to be able to still offer stuff to local people here as well as opposed to just shipping everything out,” she said. “There will be a lot of house plants, succulents, basically like anything plant-related.”

Gapinski sells succulents and air plants because they are easier to maintain.

“If people are successful with a plant, they’re going to want more,” she said. “It doesn’t do the industry any good or myself any good to sell someone on a plant that they don’t have the right light for or have to water every day.”

Gapinski grew up in the plant industry because her parents own Heartland Growers at 2621 E. 186th St. The business has operated for 34 years. Gapinski is 32.

How to cope with cancer Commentary by Jill Dodson A new cancer diagnosis can change your life and the lives of those around. Here are some tips for coping with cancer.

Take control DIAGNOSIS It’s common to feel overwhelmed with a new cancer diagnosis, but patients often feel better once they feel more in control of the situation and have a treatment plan in place.

Here’s what you can do to help patients and loved ones feel in control: • Gather information about the diagnosis from your care team and reliable websites.

• Communicate clearly with your medical team. Write questions down in advance of your appointments, bring someone with you and seek a second opinion if necessary.

• Don’t be afraid to ask family and friends for help and support.

• Treat yourself with kindness as you go through this journey.

• Be aware of benefits offered through your employer. Talk to your human resources department about disability and leave benefits and check if you

have critical illness or accident insurance. Encourage those who will be caring for you to do the same.

• Organize your medical bills. The financial impact of a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming.

• Find a healthy outlet for your stress.

Build a support system Anxiety and depression are not uncommon when dealing with cancer. That is why a solid support system is critical. But where can you find support? Start with your medical provider and be open about how you are feeling and coping. This helps your medical provider connect you to resources, such as social workers, nurse navigators and support groups.

Finally, don’t overlook family and friends who offer to help. Remember, people like to feel needed. Whether it’s an offer to cook a meal or run an errand, learn to graciously accept support.

Jill Dodson is an oncology social worker at IU Health North Hospital.

It’s Not a Trick Our bodies age…

But, it’s not hard to feel like you used to.

By staying active you can feel good when you look in the mirror.

It’s important, it’s rewarding.

It’s healthy, and it feels good!

So Treat Yourself “Motion 4 Life is the only gym I have ever joined. The staff has made me very comfortable in going there and working out.

The trainers are knowledgeable and know just what I need to continue to improve.

Joining was a good decision on my part.”

‘Comedy of Errors’ farce set for run at The Cat

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com When Becca Bartley first read Shakespeare’s “The Comedy of Errors,” it was laugh at first sight.

PLAY “I first read the show when I was on a plane and despite trying to remain quiet, there were moments I couldn’t help but audibly react, laughing loudly enough that I got some weird looks from other passengers,” she said of the farce.

The Westfield resident is acting and producing Improbable Fiction Theatre Company’s “The Comedy of Errors” Nov. 2 to 11 at The Cat Theatre, 254 Veterans Way, Carmel.

“There is a lot of effort going in to each side and, as anything, I wish I had more time to devote to each,” Bartley said. “I have been involved in many aspects of theater over the past couple of decades, but this is my first time being producer.

Thankfully, a couple other members of the show are seasoned producing veterans and are helping answer any questions I have along the way. The acting side feeds into my creativity, and the producing plays into my type-A characteristics.”

Bartley said the show features a 20-member cast with a wide range of backgrounds and ages.

“As this is Shakespeare, we of course have to include some fight choreography,” Bartley said. “The Cat is a smaller venue, so it is always a challenge to figure out how to use the space well and get the full effect. For this show, we are doing comedic fighting. Keep an eye out for the difference of speed and, of course, fantastic character reactions.”

This is the first of Shakespeare’s plays the group has done which it hasn’t had to trim because of length. Bartley said the performance is likely to be under two hours.

“I began performing with the Improbable Fiction people even before the official creation of the company, so I have been with them since its start,” Bartley said. “I have been able to be on stage in many of the performances. The last two IFTC shows I acted in were ‘The Butler Did It Again’ and ‘Much Ado About Nothing.’ Both took place

Heartland Film announces winners editorial@youarecurrent.com The Heartland International Film Festival announced the filmmaker award winners for the festival’s 27th edition during its Oct. 20 GLOW: Awards Party at Newfields, 4000 N. Michigan Rd., Indianapolis.

The grand prize for Best Narrative Feature, and a cash prize of $25,000, went to Amélie Van Elmbt’s “The Elephant and the Butterfly,” produced by the Dardenne Brothers and executive produced by Martin Scorsese. The grand prize for Best Documentary Feature, and a cash prize of $25,000, was given to Alexandria Bombach’s “On Her Shoulders.”

The Jimmy Stewart Legacy Award, and a cash prize of $5,000, went to Indianapolis director Ted Green for “Eva.” Among the other awards, Kendall Goldberg’s ‘When Jeff Tried to Save the World” was presented with Heartland’s first FIPRESCI Best Directorial Debut for USA Narrative Film, and Dava Whisenant’s “Bathtubs Over Broadway” received the festival’s Humor and Humanity Award.

at The Cat.” Bartley said the theater company enjoys having fun as well as producing quality theater.

“We take the time to develop characters and relationships that fit the show and are believable to the audience,” Bartley said.

Bartley plays Lucinda. Her sister is Adriana, who is married to the main character Antipholus of Ephesus. Adriana is played

by Tamara Rulon, a Noblesville resident.

“Tamara and I have been on stage numerous times over the last six years, but this is our first time as sisters,” Bartley said. “Because we work so well together, it has been fun to bring a sisterly love and banter to life. One of the challenges is realizing that Shakespeare, like any author, developed his craft over the years. His ability to build characters in ‘The Comedy of Errors’ was not quite as developed as you may see in other, more well-known

works. There are moments when the actor has to take two character traits that do not typically go together and create a believable character. This ended up being a fun task to tackle.”

Other cast members include Adam Workman, Antipholus, Indianapolis; David Burch, Dromio of Ephesus, Noblesville; and Daniel Shock, Dromio of Syracuse, Noblesville.

Noblesville resident Ryan Shelton is directing the play. Christy Clinton, Fishers, is the assistant director.

Shelton and Clinton are founders of IFTC along with Noblesville resident Jeff Bick.

“We started producing shows together at the Belfry in Noblesville and with Noblesville’s Shakespeare in the Park,” Shelton said. “We have a partnership with Nickel Plate Arts as well.”

Ballet group debuts at Tarkington

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The Ballet Theatre of Indiana is bringing back an Edgar Allen Poe-inspired production that is dear to BTI Artistic DirecDANCE tor Stirling Matheson’s heart.

“At the beginning of our second season was the first time we did ‘Macabre’ (in 2015),” said Matheson, a Carmel resident. “That was our first sold-out show. We actually sold more tickets to this than we did to our whole opening season.

In the first year, we were still settling on our identity and developing our processes.

This show was our coming of age. We create something dramatic and full of artistic depth. Because of the success of that we started doing a Halloween ballet every year.”

BTI, now in its fifth season, will present an updated “Macabre” at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 2-3 at The Tarkington, the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. It is BTI’s first appearance inside the Center for the Performing Arts.

“It’s an amazing facility and it’s somewhere I’ve wanted to perform at for some time,” Matheson said. “We haven’t had the right opportunity yet, so we’re trying it out and see how it goes.”

Michelle Quenon and Stirling Matheson perform in “The Mask of the Red Death” ballet. (Photo provided by Crowe’s Eye Photography)

Matheson said some pieces, such as “The Mask of the Red Death” and “The Cask of Amontillado,” are returning.

Matheson choreographed “The Mask of the Red Death” and “The Oval Portrait.”

Company dancer and scenic designer Emma Beigel choreographed “Annabel Lee,” and the rest was choreographed by Cole Companion.

Others pieces include “The Pit and the Pendulum,” “To My Mother” and “Ligeia.”

The Den by Foxgardin

PRE-OWNED SALE Central Indiana’s Only Lincoln dealership.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: Inside Sun King Spirits taproom and distillery, 351 Monon Blvd., Carmel What to get: The Carmel Tenderloin Price: A la carte, $3.50 per slider Anna’s take: The Den by Foxgardin is the perfect place to go if you want to sample a little bit of a lot of different items. It is a spin-off of the popular Foxgardin restaurant in Fortville. The restaurant offers four types of sliders, barbeque options, several sides and entrees. I ordered the fried mozzarella, a side of fries and the Carmel Tenderloin slider. The fried mozzarella are thick slabs of mozzarella cheese, cut fresh, marinated in house-made, wet batter, tossed in a dry batter, fried and served with homemade marinara sauce. They are what The Den calls “twice-fried,” so they’re extra crispy.

My favorite was the Carmel Tenderloin, a miniature twist on a sandwich famous throughout Indiana. It is the size of a slider, making it very conquerable compared to traditional tenderloins. The tenderloin is

actually made out of tenderloin and not the more common ingredient, pork loin. Chef Jake Burgess said the restaurant, which has no freezers, is fast/casual but chef-driven.

All sauces are made in-house.

The Den by Foxgardin is one of four restaurants inside Sun King Spirits, a taproom and new distillery just off the Monon near downtown Carmel. Sun King Spirits features the emerging concept of food halls, where multiple eateries with different menus are housed within one establishment.

Suggested pairings: Burgess said his goal for The Den by Foxgardin is for food to pair well with any of Sun King’s beers.

“My idea behind my food, here especially, is eat what you want, drink what you want and everything will meld together,” he said.

Behind bars: Pineapple Mojito Get it at Oakleys Bistro, Indianapolis Ingredients: 1 oz. Plantation pineapple rum, .5 oz. simple syrup, .5 oz. fresh lime juice, 3 mint sprigs, club soda, candied pineapple Directions: Shake the first four ingredients with ice and pour into a rocks glass. Top with club soda. Garnish with a candied pineapple.

A problem with privilege Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Berlin’s Deutscher Dom and Französischer Dom. (Photos by Don Knebel)

Berlin’s twin towers Commentary by Don Knebel Berlin’s Gendarmenmarkt has been called the most beautiful public square north of the Alps. Its twin church towers reflect both religious dissonance and archiTRAVEL tectural harmony.

In about 1688, Frederick I of Prussia created a new outdoor market in an area of Berlin inhabited by a large number of Huguenots (French Protestants) who had fled persecution by French Roman Catholics.

In 1701, Frederick gave the refugees permission to build a church at the northern end of the market, where they worshipped in the Reform tradition established by John Calvin. When indigenous Protestants, who worshipped in the tradition established by Martin Luther, demanded their own church, Frederick allowed them to build a Lutheran church at the southern end of the market.

In 1785, Frederick II commissioned Carl von Gontard, a local Huguenot architect, to design and build virtually identical Palladianstyle domed towers adjacent to the original churches. Beginning in 1818, a theater, its exterior design complementing the domed towers, was erected along the western side

of the plaza. The northern church became known informally as Französischer Dom (French Dome), and the southern church became known as Deutscher Dom (German Dome). The plaza itself was called Gendarmenmarkt after the military stables that once existed on the site.

Allied bombing during World War II severely damaged the buildings in Gendarmenmarkt. The East German government restored them all during the 1970s.

Today, Französischer Dom is still used as a church and includes a Huguenot museum.

Deutscher Dom, no longer a church, houses an exhibit about German parliamentary history. The theater is used as a concert hall for one of Berlin’s orchestras, which performs open-air concerts from the hall’s steps during the summer. In the winter, Gendarmenmarkt once again becomes a colorful outdoor market.

DISPATCHES Herb inhibits sugar cravings — A woody climbing shrub that comes from the forests of India and Southeast Asia called gymnema – dubbed the “destroyer of sugar” for its abilities to stop sugar cravings in seconds – is finally making its way to the U.S. New York City-based startup Sweet Defeat is the first company to develop and market the herb to American consumers. The plant has a long history of use in India’s Ayurvedic medicine practices to help patients with diabetes and weight loss. The mint could potentially help the more than 30 million adults that have diabetes in the U.S., according to the American Diabetes Association.

What’s the problem with privilege?

It’s so hard to spell. Spelling the word privilege is my krypGRAMMAR GUY tonite; like Superman, it weakens me and prevents me from saving the world.

Every time I go to type it, I get the red, squiggly, judgmental, lightning-underline treatment from my word processing software.

Then I simply correct my spelling error (and quickly forget how to spell it again).

Privilege in life is a lot like that. Even if those of us in positions of privilege stop and consider the fortunate hand life dealt us, we can easily forget and slip back into feelings of entitlement. I’m no exception. I’m a white, middle class, American man. In general, I’ve got a really good thing going for me (and I didn’t do anything to achieve this).

I was basically born a prince. It’s easy for me to get a job. I don’t get unfairly pulled

over on the road or scrutinized extra in the airport security line. I’m not at all worried when I walk to my car alone in a parking lot at night.

It’s not like privilege should be hard to spell. First of all, there’s no “d,” just a “g” hanging out on its own. However, my biggest problem is with the vowel order. But when you think about it, privilege is all about something that benefits yourself, whether fairly or unfairly. So, it’s no wonder the first two vowels are “i” and then “i” again. The third vowel is “e” (like in the word “me”). So, when you spell privilege, think “I, I, me.” It’s pretty much a Toby Keith song.

My biggest problem right now comes from spell check — which, justifiably so — yells at me for my bad spelling.

Spelling the word privilege is my kryptonite; like Superman, it weakens me and prevents me from saving the world.
