Thank you for the birthday wishes good people. I will admit I don’t always feel worthy of it. I guess that is what grace and kindness are all about. As I go through the next year my hope is for peace, love, acceptance, kindness, and good tidings for each of us and the world.

I am celebrating my 53rd Birthday today. Another trip around the Sun is done and may the next one to come be good. Let’s see how things go. Peace to us all.
I think future generations will say the late 20th century and the early 21st century was a time of great convulsions and upheavals.

It’s important to entertain the least of these in the world. We never know what their back story is. Love requires that of us. It also means that you have a chance to impact the lives of people who need it. The opportunity to impact the course of someone’s life is exciting.
Taking care of those who aren’t pretty or polished is a challenge and requires our better angels to do so. In a world where people need love, we have to be willing to be brave and bold.
So my friends learn to do good things that can change the direction of people who need love more than anything.
There’s a fine line between stoogey and dopey. I am not sure which side of that line I fall on. I guess it doesn’t matter, either way, it’s all good.
By the way, everyone is a little stoogy and/or dopey.
I have watched Starship Troopers on my birthday weekend for years. It’s bombastic science fiction satire at its finest. I like that stuff. Would you like to know more?
