Time Does March On 2009 to 2019

2009 I turned 40

2019 I turned 50

A lot happened in 10 years, too much to recall. Time does March on as we all know. Let’s see how the next 10 go.

To Hell With 2019

This has been the worst year of my life. The loss of my father among other things has made this a truly horrible year. Granted trips to Canada and Savannah, Georgia were bright spots but the rest of the time things just sucked. I am so hoping for a better 2020. We shall see.

Back To Work Monday

Well my holiday break is over and I’m back to work. It was a good time celebrating, resting and reflection. May you all have a good week ahead.

Quote Of The Day

Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.

The One Month Mark Without #Facebook

facebook1

One month ago I went on a Facebook fast for personal reasons. It’s been a great experience where I have cleared my head and focused on other areas of expression like my blog. I remain connected on Twitter and Instagram. I don’t regret leaving one bit, but I know a return is in sight sometime in the future. So far so good though and I’ll go back when I am good and ready. Until then, steady on as they say.
