The It’s Not Fair Party

It’s strange to see so many adults acting like children but here we are.  Welcome to 2023.  It seems silly to read about fellow Americans wanting to expand the footprint of their state because others in their party that live in the neighboring state feel disenfranchised.  It seems ridiculous to read about a governor so… Continue reading The It’s Not Fair Party

The Revenge Tour

Legislation via revenge.  Leadership through grudge.  I can’t say that I saw that as where our politics were heading but here we are.  We are at the point where people want into politics not to lead, not to give back, heck, not even just to be rich and powerful but to track down their enemies… Continue reading The Revenge Tour

Down, Down, Down We Go

It really is a wonder that children are as generally reasonable as they are considering what surrounds them. Adults have not only killed civility but we have pulled it apart, buried it, and then urinated on its grave.  It would seem that as adults force children to grow up at a  younger and younger age… Continue reading Down, Down, Down We Go

What Is It That Opinions Are Like, Again?

Opinions are interesting, aren’t they? We are all entitled to them, we all have them, and most of us feel the need to spout them from time to time. With this blog, it’s opinions all the time. The thing with something like a blog though is it’s something you have to participate in, in that… Continue reading What Is It That Opinions Are Like, Again?

Those Who Set Fires

What do we call someone who sets something ablaze with no care for what happens when the fire takes hold? They are arsonists.  Arsonists are criminals and are hunted and prosecuted as such.  The problem though is what do we do with social arsonists, who set fires in our culture and in their fan base… Continue reading Those Who Set Fires

I Won’t Give In To Fear

Say it with me now, I won’t give in to fear.  Doesn’t that feel good? Gets the blood moving.  Gets the spirits up.  HALLELUJAH! The world is a scary place and it is full of rabble-rousers who want nothing more than to weaponize ignorance and fear for their own gain. They want to stoke fear… Continue reading I Won’t Give In To Fear

We Already Know Where We’re Going

Sometimes you head somewhere, thinking you are just out for a drive when deep down you already have a destination in mind. We head out in our vehicle and we just let the wind rush through the windows, we turn up the tunes, and we zone out and just sorta let the road unfold before… Continue reading We Already Know Where We’re Going

Deny, deny, deny

I am led to wonder lately how it is we can present ourselves as the leaders of the ‘free’ world when we live in such denial. Now, each of us lives in personal denial of one thing or another - we really do need to exercise, we really do need to find a  new job,… Continue reading Deny, deny, deny

False Idols

There is something chilling about a political party that pretends to be very pious and devout to the Christian faith following a false idol. How many times have we heard the lectures that the Antichrist is coming and that they are among us now? How many times have we heard religious leaders more interested in… Continue reading False Idols

Getting What We Want

We are at a point in history where I feel like we’re going to get what we’ve been asking for and very few of us will be happy about it. It startles me, really, that we endured four years with the worst, and most dangerous President in American history and have the scars to show… Continue reading Getting What We Want

For Educational Purposes Only- blog

           When I look back at my school days, I can’t say I look back at them fondly. I wasn’t great in Kindergarten, finding myself and what it was like to be in school and around so many kids. I had been in a sort of preschool, but it wasn’t like it is today and… Continue reading For Educational Purposes Only- blog

Validation – blog

           Humans need validation. Whether we like it or not. As isolated as we may make ourselves, we want, we need to be seen. We need to recognize, even if just to see that we want to be alone. Humans are, even today, a social species that needs one another. I know that as much… Continue reading Validation – blog

The Hills We Die On

           I will never tell anyone I am the smartest person in any room I am in. I will never tell anyone I am better than them because odds are really great, I am not. And I am not going to act as if my beliefs should be the standard for what all others believe… Continue reading The Hills We Die On
