Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvelously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones.

Something About Forgiveness
Forgiveness is hard. Sometimes forgiving someone is more of a journey and doesn’t happen instantly. Forgiving doesn’t always mean forgetting. We all have experiences where we are deeply hurt and we cannot forgive and that’s a very human thing. To err is human and to forgive is divine as the old saying goes. Reconciliation is a good thing but in some instances may never happen.
Right now some people have been harmed to the point where forgiveness is the furthest thing from their minds let alone their hearts. I know I am not perfect and I have made my share of mistakes and all can say is that forgiveness is a gift and it’s a hard thing to give.
Forgive as you have been forgiven if you can.
Thought Of The Day
This should be the future the past predicted. Instead, it’s the future that looks more like the past.
Happy Star Trek Day #StarTrek #StarTrekDay
Give me the future that Gene Roddenberry dreamed of. Where humanity, science, and diversity are a way of life. Where new lives and new civilizations are not scary things. That’s the world I want to see. Live long and prosper. Boldly go. Happy Star Trek Day!
The Struggle Is Real For Us All
To all who are back to work after the Labor Day weekend have the best day possible. Love and peace to you all.
Spinning The Tunes
Get ready to rock. Ordered a fancy new record player today. Looking forward to some musical fun. I even ordered a record to go with it.
Oh I ordered some practical stuff too.
