Peaceful Protesting or Harassing Behavior? (An Opinion Piece)

Peaceful Protesting or Harassing Behavior? (An Opinion Piece)

I read this article (link below) and began to wonder: It appears as though the people involved in the protests believe they have the right to disrupt someone’s life to the point it appears that harassment is being displayed. My questions are: 1) Are the protesters behavior acceptable? Do they have the legal right to go onto someone’s property, without invitation, and cause noise disruption (which…

Why Are These so Important and Why the Timing? (an Opinion Piece)

Why Are These so Important and Why the Timing? (an Opinion Piece)

This post is simply asking a few questions, not an infurrance to anything. I am simply looking for answers to ‘why’. ********** Why was it so important for a ban on the use of specific verbiage or term to be signed into law by the sitting president of the USA? Why is it important for the use of this phrase to be a felony (on federal property)? Why was it important for this to occur so early…

Manipulation Tells Me My Voice is NOT Important (My Opinion)

Manipulation Tells Me My Voice is NOT Important (My Opinion)

I awoke today with sadness in my heart and feelings of disappointment and dread. I am an American Citizen and today is January 20, 2021. I refuse to turn on the TV or to listen to any type of live radio. The reasons for my negativity, you ask. I believe today is the evidence of the culmination of the preceding months which has ushered in the death of a fairly respectable and mostly neutral…

What Are WE Allowing to Happen?

People are behaving in such a way that the doors AND windows are being opened for the government to begin control of the masses on a grand scale. Censorship is a starting point. Freedoms are NOT free and they are not guaranteed. Be careful for what you desire for when it arrives it can be ugly and smell bad. There’s no turning back. Threats Against Life

Where Are We Headed?

I understand that some people have an abundance of empathy for others. Unfortunately, there is more to life than simply empathy. Social justice has one look on paper and an entirely different look when emplemented into real life. Leninism By Another Name

Is This the Direction We Are Headed?

EpochTimes article, “Chinese Regime Oversaw ‘Unprecedented’ Efforts to Crush Human Rights in 2020, US Commission Says” I have concerns. Right now what I’m seeing by people in the position of authority, from governors of states all the way up to those who work in Washington DC and rulers of countries, is very unsettling. There are too many people who have displayed actions that lead me to believe…

Don’t give up, you’re not in this alone

Don’t give up, you’re not in this alone

I think there is a good reason why we cannot predict the future or that people cannot read other people’s minds. Life would be so uncomfortable if we could. Right now, some of us have the practiced ability to determine another person’s mood, thoughts, and reasoning by simply conversing with them in person. We can use their body language and tone inflection to help us ascertain the motivation or…

The Breaking of America - an Opinion Piece

The Breaking of America – an Opinion Piece

The Breaking of America

How do you break something that is big and strong? You weaken it.

How do you successfully weaken something? You disrupt its design and material.

Most Militaries take in recruits, restructure their existence while breaking down their habits and thoughts, build their bodies with nutrition and exercise and then rebuild those recruits into soldiers and team members.…

Don't Feed Negativity

Don’t Feed Negativity

The current stresses found within the USA have caused many to worry. This uptick in worry, stress, grief and the assortment of negative energies has created a stronger negative energy force that has effected empaths world-wide. It’s difficult to tell who is an empath, even to the point that some people don’t know that they possess the ability to be an empath. Please be a little bit more patient…

A Note . . . To Carol M.

A Note . . . To Carol M.

You stated that you read my web page and that it has ‘Trump Supporter’ written all over it. Hum. . . . . I don’t see the correlation. I have not mentioned him nor have I stated anything good or bad about any candidate or anything political. I haven’t bashed or condemned anyone. I haven’t wished anyone dead. I have not made any racist remarks. I have stated that we need to be kind to each other…

What Does the Future Hold for Us in 2020

As the spread of the coronavirus expands it’s reach I ponder what the future may hold for me and others.   Today is March 23, 2020, and my thoughts wander back to the Roaring Twenties in the USA.

In November 1918 World War I was ending. On November 11, 1918, Germany formally surrendered and all nations agreed to stop fighting while the terms of peace were negotiated. On June 28, 1919, Germany and…

Heed the Voice of Wisdom

Heed the Voice of Wisdom

Ever have a thought pop into your head, sometimes out of the blue, that you know you should heed, but you don’t?

It comes to you in the middle of your thoughts as a soft ‘in the background’ suggestion, never loud or obnoxious.

Its brevity is packed full wisdom, not because of the words you acknowledge but due to your in-depth understanding of those few wise words.

Sometimes those soft suggestive…
