Saving Matt Damon has cost the American taxpayer billions of dollars and a few lives. It’s all worth it because he is a national treasure. We are watching it again today. This movie is every bit awesome.

Some Things From Facebook Posted One Year Ago Today…

I posted these status updated on Facebook a year ago. They seem just as relevant today with the chaos going on around the world. Things are crazy and that isn’t good. My blogging family I hope and pray that you will all be safe and that you will take care of one another.

For all that is holy and good and right be sure to love your neighbor today. Evil, prejudice and hate are snuffed out by love. Make today a new day.

There is temptation to blame God for what we have seen today. God has done none of this. Men made bad decisions that led to the deaths of hundreds of people. God is going to be there in the aftermath, in the people who will help comfort, console and those who will seek peace in the chaos. Granted some will have a test of faith and that is understandable, to those who believe be sure to pray to those who don’t offer good vibes in the universe. Now is the time for people to come together as a human family.

Status Update 

Hello good people, it’s Sunday and I hope you have a great day. This morning I’m off to church and then not sure about the rest of the day. Have a good one. Grace and peace and love. God bless.

Pokémon Go 

So, tonight we went with friends to play the game that’s sweeping the world, Pokémon Go. It’s a fascinating game that blends augmented reality and getting you out of your house to encounter actual reality. I will share more later but know I walked 3 miles this evening and I’m tired but it’s a good tired spent with some new friends and good people. 

Maybe Change Will Come, Maybe

When there is so much tragedy there comes a time when you become numb to it all. It’s just another event that unfortunately has changed the lives of people on both sides. One would think you would like to change the tone, change what is happening, change the future by changing the present. We allow things to happen because the changing part makes some uncomfortable and they don’t want to sacrifice anything. Yeah we all want life, liberty and happiness but what are we willing to give to get it. I hope one day people will stop killing other people for sport or because someone brainwashed them into doing it. Maybe change will come, maybe.

On July 16, 2015 in Chattanooga, TN we lost five servicemen who were just living their lives and doing their jobs. A young man who himself is a victim of sorts attacked a recruiting office and then a naval reserve center where he ended the lives of these five men. Today we remember them for their sacrifice and service. Thank you:

  • Lance Cpl. Squire “Skip” Wells
  • Sgt. Carson Holmquist
  • Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Sullivan
  • Staff Sgt. David Wyatt
  • Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Randall Smith (who died a couple days later)
