A LITTLE REALITY CHECK PLEASE?

You know sometimes I just have to shake my head at some people.  they go from group to group demanding help, but the first time one gives a viable answer they run off in a huff because it wasn’t “magical” enough.  Such is the case of one young woman.  She claimed to awaken with blue […]

Breaking the ruler

Ever notice how others seem to judge us by their own yardstick?  If you don’t walk, speak, practice according to their views, then of course you are either totally wrong, sorely lacking in knowledge or just fluff.  If you have deigned to write, voice your opinion or just put out there for public display, invariably […]

Let me draw you a picture

What is it about people who think that if you ask a question you are either A. ignorant B. trying to provoke a fight or C. need directions about what you asked about.  Sometimes its neither of them.  What if..oh maybe, what if you just wanted to know for curiosities sake?  What if you heard […]

Life in the real world

I’ve been on an Alice in wonderland kick as of late with some of the metaphors  I’ve used lately and things I’ve said.  Now it’s time to get back to the business of the real and mundane and tell it like it is.  So I was on a thread from a group that was presenting a story that was […]

It’s not what you think

I’ve been reading couple of  close friend’s blogs.  One speaking of a dream she has often, that I have spoken my POV on..the other who defends our friend against the judgmental asshats who also have taken a turn.  My view was that she needed to listen, and banish the negative…I was close in that train of thought, […]

In the cold

Today was a long sucky day in hell(which is what I call where I work).  I might have mentioned before, but if not, it’s a sewing plant that makes uniforms for the military.  a sweatshop of a general sort with a lot of rules in a “right to work” state, with little representation for issues […]

Be the Change you Seek

I’ve written before about living in the south(Mississippi to be exact), but that growing up on military bases all around the world afforded me a greater view of humanity.  I have been reading commentary in the morning paper by various leaders, preachers.  Tomorrow is the 3rd Monday in January, so it is a national holiday […]

RELIGIOUS SPORTS?

So, I’ve been rolling my eyes over the football scene lately.  I have my picks for favorite teams , one of whom is working on the playoffs(go G-men).  I am a fan of the Manning brothers, because of their ties to Mississippi, so have followed their careers.  One team that I am not enamored over […]

Feeling better

chair de la chair, les os de l’os, le balayage des dragons d’où ils errent. Du brouillard à la vallée, les montagnes à la mer, des mystiques sages, la connaissance est recherchée.   The song is often sung to me by Brin.  It’s the only words I have learned, although as often as I beg her to sing it to me, one would think […]

kicking my ass….

Damn what a day!  It’s been a long ass week in hell and still not over, and everything that can make that job stressful happened pretty much.  On top of that it snows..like here in Mississippi we need or want that shit or the cold weather that came with it.  The kids will appreciate the […]
