Writing The Story Of 2020
Whoever in the hell is writing this episode of life called 2020 has done their job. They can put down their pen or step away from their keyboard. What we have seen in these months can only come from someone like Stephen King. Think about all that is happened, and it seems like a fever dream.
From COVID to the presidential elections to our own personal situations it’s been a tough year for us all.
Each day that passes is a new page, each month is a new chapter. What is being written is scary. Every morning you arise you wonder what chaos will meet you. So far 2020 isn’t a rom com.
As a blogger, I get to chronicle all the weird stuff that has happened. I am hoping for more positive things for the future. Part of that writing is a history of what we have all been through. Some of it is unbelievable.
I am not certain 2021 will be much better. I hope that won’t be a sequel but a whole new story with fresh ideas and new directions.
A Quick Thought On The First Debate #Debates2020
Last night was the first Biden-Trump debate in the 2020 election. It was a horrible mess. I couldn’t make it through it all. The President was not presidential and came across as a bully and showed us once again who he really is. Vice President Biden had a couple of miscues, but he held his own against the onslaught of Trump’s constant interruptions. Trump also has a problem with racism and lies among other things which should be enough in any other time to have him voted out.
This debate if you want to call it that was an embarrassment for the United States. It’s terribly sad that a grown man cannot seem to abide by the rules that moderator Chris Wallace tried to enforce. Man, I hope this could lead to the cancellation of the last two debates. We don’t need another night of abusive behavior from the so-called leader of the free world.
I hope we don’t have to go through that again. As a CNN anchor said it was a “shit show”.

Sunday Reflection: Storytelling #sundaythoughts
One could say life is a story. Everything we do in life is recalled from memory to be told later on. Whether it comes from a book, music, movie, or in a campfire there is a tale worth telling.
Some of the great story tellers such as Shakespeare, Austen, Lewis, Twain, Haley, Swift, Paisley, Cash, Spielberg, Howard and Young and many more have captured our imagination and challenged us to think differently. We have learned much from their art and vision.
Family stories can be the most colorful and something that ties the past with the present and the future.
In scripture, the feeding of the five thousand is one where there are lots of characters to choose from. Jesus was doing some cool things to bring community together and performing a miracle in the process. Talking about a big fish story.
Blogging and social media are telling our stories in real time. We get to share our experiences in this life with one another as it happens. As a long-time blogger its quite fun to see how other people live and where they are coming from. Its like travelling without having to leave your home.
Movies are a way to share a story in a communal way where people can see different things from the same source. Videos from YouTube are an important part of giving voice to people and to offer instructions on how to navigate life.
Stories are important. We all have one. Let’s be sure to insure the transmission of our lives and culture into tomorrow. There is much to be learned from it all. Tell us the story good people.
