Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Snow, Three Years Ago

Three years ago it was snowing in Chattanooga. This past week it’s been all wet and warmish. Funny how all that works. Looking forward to snow sometime soon-ish.

What You Will See and Read Here

This is my blog of record and I will post, re-blog (which happens rarely) and talk about whatever I like. Know that I am left of center and most of what you will see here reflects that. From life experiences, religion politics to pop culture its all from my heart, mind and soul. I welcome all and you should know what to expect here.

Thought Of The Day 021718

Children are to be heard and seen especially when the grown-ups are too cowardly to do anything to keep them safe. Maybe they should be running the country. Seriously when will something change, too many people are dying.

At A College Basketball Game

I’m with family at a Dalton State Roadrunner Basketball Game. I’m enjoying the atmosphere at this arena they have set up in a convention center. A fun Saturday activity.

Something About Millennials

I am 49 this year and I am from the Generation X era which was raised on pop culture, TV and Music Videos. Millennials I have found are just trying to find their way in the world. I am proud to call a few of them brothers and sisters in blogging and friends in life. Generational differences aside we are all humans and we need to work together to make this world a better place.  They are going to change the world. It might not be what Baby Boomers or even Gen-Xers would do but that’s OK. The world is very different with them in it and the things that worked in previous generations won’t work with them.

Millennials2

I see good things for them and it is becoming their world and their time to shine. I hope they will take the wisdom of the ages and use their own sensibilities to create a greater community. Maybe they will take faith and use it for the best. It’s going to be exciting to see what this generation will do. It’s a group that is here and is getting ready to lead.

Good Morning Saturday

Breakfast this morning. Omelette with hash browns, sausage and muffins. A great way to start the weekend.
