Tunes On Tuesday – Taylor Swift: Bad Blood
Taylor Swift stood up to Apple for not paying royalties to artists during the trial phase of their upcoming streaming music service. So to pay tribute to Ms. Swift for her courage I thought this video would be appropriate for the day. This video is quite good and a reminder that music videos still matter, are you listening MTV?
It’s Tuesday Again
Tuesday we have to stop meeting like this. Every week you show up and we just have to make it through. I have always said you are Monday part two and today I mean it.
Friends no matter what your Tuesday has for you I hope you will power through. Keep on going and have the best day possible.
Me, Grouchy…Naw!
I am a overwhelmingly positive person and I am not sure how to be grouchy. Being crotchety is not in my DNA. What would it look like if I were a little short with people. I seriously think people would run away screaming if I were mean. It’s hard to be positive because it sometimes comes across as fake but I am who I am. Being human like I am there will be times when I feel totally pissed off and wish ill will (well as much as I can). Perhaps this is something I shouldn’t worry about now because I am borrowing trouble where there doesn’t need to be.
Happy Dating Anniversary
Seventeen years ago today my wife and I had our first date. We met up at a local restaurant for a cold beverage then went to a bridge for a walk. That moment in time changed our life and we have never been the same again. It still amazes me that someone would take a chance on me. She even kept me around which is still more amazing. We are grateful to be together. I love you Laura, thank you for the memories.
Freedom To Worship
I stepped into a house of worship today to celebrate Father’s Day with my father and grandfather today. I felt no fear or trepidation. However some who seek to worship their higher power did so under suspicion, fear and threat from individuals and institutions. Religious freedom is about worshiping in the customs and traditions you embrace and allowing others to do the same to do the same in theirs. I am humbled to be a believer in Christ but I want my Jewish, Muslim and friends of other faiths to have the ability to seek comfort, grace and love in their communities.
The people of Mother Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal worshiped as a community days after the shootings of last week. They are showing grace, strength, love and forgiveness in all they are doing to make a difference in the lives of others.
