Something About Being Weird
Just in case you didn’t realize, I am a weirdo. Yep, 100%. Maybe each of us is weird in our own way. One thing about being weird is the things in life that makes one happy. Sometimes being weird means that finding people who share in your weirdness isn’t easy. I don’t think being weird is a choice, it’s how you are wired, it is core to who you are.
My friends, embrace what makes you different. It’s OK to march to the beat of a different drummer. I have found that weird things, media, people, and other stuff helps me cope with this world we live in.
I think more places need weird, quirky, unconventional, artistic people to make it better. Not being tied to the way others think is freedom. It’s about being authentic and not hiding things in a bushel.
To my fellow weirdos, I am with you. We are kin. We are community.
It’s Time To Fall Back To Standard Time
On Sun, Nov 2, 2025 don’t forget to set your clocks back to standard time. I hate moving the clocks back and forward, but in this case “gaining an extra hour of sleep” is not a bad thing.
Blogging About Reality From The Heart
Sometimes the only thing you can blog about is what is in your heart, and that is sometimes influenced by what is going on around you. It’s all good to be authentic and to react to what you are feeling about stuff. I like posts like that and bloggers who tell the story they want to tell. With everything going on, it’s time to speak up and speak out. Our blogs are our platform.
Thought Of The Day 10272025
I wish more billionaires were advocating for the little guy, than trying to cozy up to the corruption of power in high offices. The world could be a better place. But money makes the world go round, and many suffer as the rich get richer and the poor fall further behind.
Be Humble, The Rest Will Speak For Itself
In the Gospel of Luke, it says all who exalt themselves will be humbled, but all who humble themselves will be exalted. That is a lesson for everyone, whether they are a believer or not. I think it’s better to be humble and allow your heart and soul to speak for itself, rather than having a fall from grace because you think you are better than anyone else.
We need to see more acts of humility, kindness, service, and love. The culture is feeding on people who brag and think they are better because of wealth, social status, and power. Humility is power if you think about it. Every Easter in many churches, the act of foot washing is an example of what it means to do something good for others.
The Pope is saying there needs to be more acts of service to others. I can dig that. I do my best to be of service. We need more servants because too many people are trying to be in charge. Everyone talks about leadership when we need servanthood. My goal is to be a servant who doesn’t always get it right on the first try. I hope you will adopt that way of living too.
Be humble, it’s a better look for everyone involved.
