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!
Everyone is lazy about something or another. We put things off for another time. Later is when we choose to deal with something important like bill paying or taxes or life choices. I say I will take care of that later but you know later comes when you least expect it and that thing you said you would take care of doesn’t get taken care of. Later is a future point in time but it’s also when we forget because other things have come along to distract us.
What is truly sad is when we say we will see someone later but later comes and goes or later never comes.
Do things now, see people now. Later isn’t always guaranteed.
International Transgender Day of Visibility is an annual holiday occurring on March 31 dedicated to celebrating transgender people and raising awareness of discrimination faced by transgender people worldwide….(From Wikipedia)
I am saluting those who choose to be their authentic selves despite discrimination and hate. People who seek life, liberty and happiness no matter what are worthy to be celebrated and loved as great human beings.
A electrical transformer on a nearby power pole went boom tonight and there has been no electricity at my residence. Yes this is a first world problem but it’s a problem nonetheless. The utility company is working on it for all affected.
Our Electric Power Board is top notch, we even get Internet, Cable and phone service through them. They provide great local service. We are lucky in Chattanooga to have them.
I am usually a easy-going, level-headed sort of bloke. These days I am navigating the waters of being angry/mad/pissed off. This is something I don’t have a lot of practice at. Without divulging the reasons for my emotions I am just trying to figure out what the hell I am doing. Keeping my cool is important as to not let things get out of control but like I said being mad is something I am figuring out. There is hurt and pain involved with being mad and I am used to those things. Someone suggested writing about it so I will be doing so but not for public consumption, just for me. Let’s see how things go.
