Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

Our daughter just gave us the third season of "The Expanse", a scify TV series that we were skeptical about but have come to enjoy. My husband is more scify than I, but this series is growing on me. Visually it is glorious. I fell in love with a small space ship a couple of episodes ago, and when I think of it I smile. I have become attached to some of the characters, and I love the diversity on display: Asian, Middle Eastern, African, Native American, Samoan. It's so refreshing, and they have meaty parts, not just token roles. Though all the characters seem human, there are the Earth dwellers, the Martians, and the Belters, so the conflicts and delimas are human as well. Power, greed, altruism, and the urge for unity spin around the plots. The show reminds the viewers that we can't leave the planet and our problems behind, so we best solve our issues here on earth. But we just find it entertaining. And visually, it is a dazzler.
