I can’t be “normal” or I’ll just drift away. My mind must continually think of new creative thoughts and/or explore different opinions. I can deal with small talk for a minimal amount of time but then my mind drifts to bigger and more controversial topics. It’s a pattern that I’ve kept flowing throughout my life and I wonder what would happen if it stopped for any long period of time.
Concede one thought to those in the left and they will put in Obama to their resuce. It doesn’t matter what the facts on the ground are they will always replace them with their Dear Leader. Hatred of this President is so vile from those of the Left that they won’t argue policy with an understanding heart but with passionate anger. By using such polarizing terms about the President such as egotistical, racist etc it might silence the conversation yet build hidden support for the same leader they so despise. So don’t be surprised again if the polls have it all wrong and a Red wave comes out of no where to sweep those in the left into more of an angry Obama corner.
Trust has been ripped out of my playbook and replaced with action. Too many times I have put my trust in individuals to keep their word and it has been erased before their actions were due. So today I judge those by not what they say to me but the action that occurs. This might lesson the amount of opportunities that I get involved in but at least I won’t fall straight on my face again. It’s sad that this is the has occurred for I’m sure there are great individuals who have the pitch of my lifetime but that lifetime has been left behind too many times. Action is the words I will hear from now on.
With Lopez Obrador a socialist leader being elected President of Mexico, the future of this nation is more uncertain then in anytime in it’s recent history. Mexico is a country full of crime, corruption and poverty that if he could help alleviate would make him one of their greatest leaders but if his socialist tendencies take over this could become another Venzeluela right on the United States doorstop. A system where the leaders never admits things in socialism don’t work even to the point of watching their own citizens live like an animals. Of course under those circumstances even the Democrats would have to believe that the wall would have to be built. A matter of fact I guarantee that today there is an increase in the amount of individuals jumping our fences in fear of what socialism will bring. Let’s hope that President Obrador is less of a socialist and more of a pragmatist as he attempts to rebuild his country from within.
All you need is one word to help you find what kind of person someone is. When people react in a certain way by just mentioning a name of an individual it can not only to determine their political view but their temparement as a whole. Those who can have a reasonable conversation about this one word without personal attacks or changes to their blood pressure are quite different then those who can’t. Therefore we not only read into one’s mind with this one word but their emotional state as well.

If you see some “Traditional” Jewish individuals that aren’t singing and dancing as usual it might be because they are fasting and it’s pretty hot to add to the mix. Today they fast in a somber remembrance of the day the Romans breached the walls of Jerusalem. This occurred when the Temple stood or many, many moons ago. I personally understand the sadness yet I’m not fasting in my personal religious journey instead I will give up an item that I enjoy. For we in the faith actually give food to the family of a deceased loved one then why should we fast when the walls are broken. We also are commanded to fast during Yom Kippur the highest holiday of the year and I believe one fast is all G-D commands. My traditional friends might be right and my steps might turn out to be more bumpier then I’d like yet I’m trying in the way I believe G-D wants me to and for that reason I believe we’ll all sing and dance under the same gate.
Yesterday I declared it “National Spill Day” and boy did I celebrate. If there was a cup or bowl to be tipped it was I that tipped it. It also could have been “National Paper Towel” day as well for they were ample used during this celebration. The sad part is I didn’t know I was celebrating the holiday and/or installing it in our calendar. Hopefully this day will only be held once a year.
ACTORS NEEDED
Many historical sites are just bumps on the road for too many but if we can bring the scene’s back to life through acting, then they will be something that stays way past the performance. Scene’s need to be re-enacted in the locations that this occurred and tweaked a bit so they don’t get stale where they focuse a different aspect of this historical event. This way when people pass the Liberty Bell it will actually ring and a visit to the Boston Harbor will incite a whole different type of party. Actors are needed to tell the story that too many have forgotten as they bring history back to life.
FOOTNOTE- Finally a performance we can all agree on.
