Keeping Calm & Carrying On....

     I know on many days, it's hard, but it's what we gotta do. 
   One, this is America, and we love it.  Disagreeing vehemently and defending each other's rights to disagree vehemently is what America is about.  Exchanging views and ideas, till we create something extraordinary that's greater than all of us. 
     To the great American, Senator John McCain, I wish love, laughter, grace, and peace, to him and his loved ones.

    Wishing all a great weekend.  Enjoy every precious moment. 

Why Shouldn't I Be Mad As Hell?

Right now as a I write, I plan to keep this short and to the point.

We'll see.

So in an effort to express all in one rambling ... uh... paragraph....
       

Testicle Crushers UNITE!

Extreme? Hmmm...

If you don't know what stilettos have to do with crushing testicles, READ HERE.     Or HERE.

But really, it's not extreme when you consider, that in this day and age, the fact that 200 MILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS have endured the horrors of FEMALE GENITALIA MUTILATION WORLD WIDE. 

IN CASE YOU'RE NOT A MATH MAJOR... Given that our population is roughly 7.5 Billion, so roughly 3.75 billion of them are female...

THAT MEANS 1 IN 18 FEMALES HAVE BEEN SLASHED.

The Presidency... Who Won/Who Lost HINT: IT'S NOT ONE PERSON

     Well, I wasn't planning on doing a new post today, but here I am. 

     I've had this post in the works for a long time.  I started it long before the election season of 2016 got underway. 

      This is not about Hillary; nor is it about Donald; it's about the presidency.  That's not to say, their names won't come up from time to time. 

The title was, "Testicle Crushers UNITE!" Then I went with the one above.  Seemed a tad more appropriate. 

Perhaps I'll use the original for a future post.

Where's "READ MORE"?

PLEASE!

  For whatever reason, I'm not seeing the words "READ MORE", on any of my posts.  

   For those of you that know me, you know I'm not that short-winded. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  I wasn't even planning on posting a post today. 

    Of course I have thoughts of what's going on.  Just overwhelming.  As I explained in "Where I've Been..." I'm just trying to focus on the novel, when I get time to write, amidst summer activities and my bartending job. 

Hope everyone is doing their best to deal with all that's going on. 

This is the end of this post. 

Aren't We Lucky!

Posted originally 2/3/14

     Every once in a while I consider how lucky we are.  When it's clear at night, I look out up at the  sky, consider the vastness of it, and think as far as we know, we are the only ones that get to experience this.

Life.  Concious life.  All the joy, all the pain.  Both are a part of it.
