WE DON’T NEED ANOTHER HERO

Whenever we change the definition of heroes, or traitors, in such cases as with Obama, and the Snowden case, We run the risk of turning traitors from the past -into heroes; and heroes from the past ‐into traitors.

It was my understanding that president Obama ran ran a ticket where people reporting misconduct in the government was welcomed! Of course, after he got into office -his tune changed drastically.

We throw decent people into prison and they turn criminal!

Decent people run for public office and either turn crooked (go with the grain) or get ran out!

Stop baiting the elections with cheese -and you’ll stop catching rats!

What do multi millionaires know about the common people?

The people in power don’t want to talk to you -and the people that are not in power are the ones we end up (having to) talking to. It’s all a fricken SCAM!!!! A WARSH!!!!

IN THE BIBLE…

I noticed when I read The Bible through for the very 1st time:

•Similarities between the laws and practices in American society

•Names (Mary, Joseph…) from our nation and that of others -present as well

•I noticed in the seventies, after the series roots came out – That people were veering away from Christian names towards more cultural, more ethnic names.

•My Grammy would say “eh” and so it is in the Bible -certainly in “The Poem of the Man-God”

BEEN A LONG LONELY, LONELY, LONELY, LONELY, LONELY TIME

Looking at Daisy pawing me for affection – I think of how many obstacles we human beings place between ourselves and one another. Within ourselves (from the inside out -we self-impose…), between ourselves and one another (from the outside in -we deny our selves others…), and between one another and ourselves (others deny us…). 😔

•Line from “Rock and Roll“, a song by the English rock band Led Zeppelin, which was first released as the second track from the band’s fourth album in 1971. The song includes a guest appearance by the Rolling Stones pianist Ian Stewart. [Source:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_and_Roll_(Led_Zeppelin_song)].

RESPONSE

Goodmorning. And thank you for your question and interest. Uhm 🤔, As creatures with a free will like none other creature on the planet, We can choose to follow our instincts or veer from them (seemingly) at will in many cases. The world is filled with the misuse of self will which when put in another way, Is filled with people making choices that veer away from the normal, from the natural, from the healthy, from the creator’s original intention… The most normal and natural thing on the planet on the planet should be to love and to be loved. But instead, many of us are filled with fear and pomp. We’re out of balance with our basic nature. And this is all due to our self will and our reactions to those around us thus which sets off something of a chain reaction. The end result is:
•a world filled with people who only think they are giving and receiving love when it is something else, an entirely different motivation.
•A world filled with people who seemingly have too much love -while others have none at all. Instead of loving one another we decide who we wish to love and who we do not wish to love. This this throws everything out of balance.
My comment with regard to our little Chihuahua Daisy was an example of how she simply asks for what she needs – In spite of the fact that I am not a perfect owner or companion to her. We can learn a lot from God’s other creatures if we are open to it. Sometimes we human beings think too much and love too little. I hope this has been helpful -Best Wishes my friend 🙏

PLEASE DON’T EAT THE DAISIES

Daisy, our little Chihuahua -Depends on Ana and myself for everything. This thought keeps going through my mind the past few days I’ve had her here with me “If I were to grow tired of her, or in a fit of rage drive her away or even throw her out (into the street)…” That thought breaks my ❤ -and yet, I have done to human-beings many a time in my early relationships/friendships 😔 (in some cases with little thought or remorse -ahhhh self-justification). I don’t know why this thought has been with me these past few days -old fear that in a few days she will be gone and I will be the one abandoned*? In my younger days, it was gonna be you that gets hurt before me. As you mature, and grow in (real) love -you tend to do things the other way around. 😘

*When I was younger, I didn’t struggle with fear -I struggled with terror. Like a 100′ tidal wave crashing down on me. These days, that wave is seldom more than 7-8′ tall.

Sidenote: In recovery, two very interesting dynamics take place:

1.Our problems seem to shrink, dissipate

2.We become stronger

Now just think about that for a moment! 🤔 (two very different dynamics taking a person in the same -wonderful direction).

THE SYSTEM

  • (Joe Don Baker) “Hey Grady. What about you? Are you just gonna let them throw me in a hole and bury me?”
  • (Bruce Glover) “What am I supposed to do? He deals the cards — I just play the hand I get”
  • (Joe Don Baker) “Well, go find yourself another game.”*

“Ooh there it is again!”

“What?”

“The system! You gotta live my way -or you don’t live.”

*Alcoholics are not the only ones who take “the easier softer way”.

•Excerpt taken from the movie Walking Tall, a 1973 American semibiographical action film of Sheriff Buford Pusser, a professional wrestler-turned-lawman in McNairy County, Tennessee, played by Joe Don Baker. The film was directed by Phil Karlson.[2] Based on Pusser’s life, it has become a cult film with two direct sequels of its own, a TV movie, a brief TV series, and a remake that had its own two sequels. [Source:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walking_Tall_(1973_film)]

TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT

Alot of things are dismissed (out of context) simply because they are too difficult. Admit it -the reason for your attitude towards… is that it is simply more demanding than you are willing to bare. The Bible and its’ teaching are probably the most sweeping example.*

*If you look at what Olympic athletes (the epitome of total dedication) -how many of us take anything close to that to ❤ in any given area of our lives? One would think that the most difficult thing (to master our selves) a human being can accomplish in this life would likely require a Herculean or Olympic effort. But let’s face it, most of us just don’t have it in us -which can only result in failure!

TRACES

There are some fine people in this world! I hope someday to be able to walk in their shadow at least.

LOSING ISAIAH

I saw this movie and thought…

•Doesn’t the child have a say-so?

•Which is more important to a child’s welfare, blood or emotional ties (now vs later)?

My mother was adopted, both my brother and sister spent time in foster homes… so this is my second-hand experience on the Subject:

•My brother appeared to care less about his biological roots!

•My mother seemed somewhat obsessed regarding hers!

So, in the movie, which would have been the right choice? Well if you simply play the odds (I have no clue what the odds or ratios are)… But I can say with reasonable certainty that would prefer to grow up with their people (biologically speaking), while others would likely prefer to go to a loving home -even if that means separation from their biological family*.

*My brother seems to place much more weight on the foster parents who offered stability vs the biological parent(s) which offered little stability -and also gave him up in the first place (made a ward of the state actually -both of us were).

•Title taken from the film of the same name. Losing Isaiah is a 1995 American drama film starring Jessica Lange and Halle Berry, directed by Stephen Gyllenhaal.
