Another prominent celebrity has been accused of “sexting” and  has been suspended which leads me to the question of  WHY?  Especially when it comes to your own private body parts why should this be in any message? Yes, I guess if you’re feeling a bit “cocky”(in this case literally) you might want it all to hang out but do you really think nobody will notice if not now then later, that what you revealed won’t be seen by the general public or at least your employer? Do you also believe by showing off a body part that people will come to your attention? Yes, you might have had a few drinks or start thinking you’re bigger then you are but trust me you’re not large enough not to get caught. This appears so  so juvenile that it’s hard for me to believe it’s real. Therefore I won’t reveal the name of the accused for people are still innocent before they get hung by their …..   .

” Look at ME”!  what would we do to get noticed? In a crowd full of people can you show your individualism enough that people will look and stare?  I’m sure you can but it depends how deep and what kind of stare you desire.  As society permits more and more free expression how far will the envelope be pushed so that an individual will get noticed in a crowd? What will take for those who want and desire attention to find it and at what consequence to the individual and society as a whole? Maybe having a dog is the solution we all can agree on.

Just because we all need it doesn’t mean the sleep isn’t a selfish act especially when done in excess. For we all know we need sleep to survive but too much is gluttony in our own mind where nobody else gets any benefits.  Sleep feels good even great when it’s occurring but how many of those special memories do we get to share with others?  Maybe a wonderful creative thought will suddenly occur during a sleep pattern but compared to the hours it takes is it real a productive way to spend a night and who has a pen to write it down anyway?  Sleep you can’t live without out but should you live for it?

One’s faith should be a place everyone except those who’ve committed the most grievance offense can have a role in it and/or prayed for.  Although the traditions and habits of one’s faith might be different then another there should be a way 99.9 can participate or feel appreciated no matter if it’s just a few steps. Maybe the standard service is a bit too long, too predictable or too early for some that doesn’t mean we should give up hope and faith in having them participate in a different way toward the truth. For in a world where there is such pull against faith we need to have magnets to pull everyone in even if they look and feel quite different. Here a few questions you should ask yourself (below) about one’s faith if you believe in this concept?

(1) Does my participation in faithful prayer look to benefit the world or just my  inner faith community?

(2) Outside of one’s assembly how does you’re faith expect you to react to the world around you in daily life?

(3) Do you have to continually isolate yourself from observing what’s around you or can you watch even if it’s from a distance?

(4) Is one’s faithful path only down places which observe ritual practices or can you step inside to observe or taste the world around you without violating your practices?

(5) Does your faith allow you to empathize with the good and bad times of others who might not share your exact route but are on a similar path toward faith?

(6) Does your faith reach out in someway to those less fortunate wherever they might be?

For in the end we are created by the one G-D who made us for many purposes but most significantly to find a way to love 99.9% (there are lines for G-D as well)  even when that love seems quite different from the path we are on.

Lollapalooza is the greatest  live concert you can watch…. at you home. For unlike watching concerts right there you can actually get a bathroom break without squeezing  through the crowd. You can pause action to if the bathroom break or snack break is taking too long. There are so many bands you can choose from without having to squeeze through any sets.  If a song turns you off you can change the channel. T.V. camera’s help get you the close up in your comfort seat with air condition blowing away the heat.  Of course nothing beats the roar of the crowd and being there but at least you can say you seen it live…. on T.V.

I finally realized that it might not be “justice for all” but who presents the best story which will decides where a verdict will go.  The story isn’t necessarily the truth because few were probably there but the one that “appears” the most believable at that moment. For example Robert Mueller will never truly find out exactly what happened with “Russian Collusion” but will try to present a story that has the least amount of holes in it.  He will try to paint a picture of the President and his team based on the colors that he has on hand whether they be true or not and those colors will have to be one’s a jury/society can identify with.   “Power/ Greed  will be the motivating force in such a story whether they actually made people act in a certain way or were completely fabricated is not important it’s the story that it helps propel.  Calling a grand jury is just having the stage for this story to be told.  The truth will lie (literally) in between the lines of this story and somehow have to seep through a good story teller/ lawyer.
