No matter who you are life is messy. Everyone goes through life with varying degrees of chaos and turmoil. Your life might look polished on the outside but on the inside is a different story. Being human means you won’t go through life without some hiccups and other stuff happening that you have to deal with.
I am convinced that there won’t be a day that goes by when you won’t have something happen that makes you shake your head and wonder what is going on here. Even religious people like me don’t have it all together. It’s good to have people in your life who also have a messy life and need the support to go through it together.
My friends everything will be OK you just have to learn to be imperfect and let things happen so you can deal with those things in the future. Experience counts a lot when life is messy.
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) Pride Month is currently celebrated each year in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan. The Stonewall Uprising was a tipping point for the Gay Liberation Movement in the United States.
Pride month is a global celebration recognizing the LGBTQ community around the world. The work of acceptance and full inclusion continues. As an ally I’m proud to stand with my friends in the community who seek justice and to live their lives without fear.
This achievement snuck up on me today. I can’t believe it’s been seventeen years since I first got a WordPress.com blogging account. I have not been posting regularly all those years but it’s cool to be recognized. Thanks to everyone who has made these years of blogging fun a reality. As I always say, keep on blogging good people.
Today is Mother’s Day and I want to salute all moms who are true heroes. Some mothers are biological, some through adoption, and some care for kids who are in need, through various situations. Of course, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the wonderful pet moms who have two and four-legged kids. Many parents out there are both mother and father and that is to be saluted. Some have strained relationships with their mothers and that cannot be ignored. No matter what I hope you all have someone you can call mom to be there for you. Thank you Moms of all persuasions.
Hello friends, I hope your day was great. The weekend is here.
I grew up in a time before cell phones. I survived. Fast forward to the times we live in today and I am kinda lost without my phone. Disconnecting every once and a while is not a bad thing and to survive 8 hours without my Google Pixel 5a is not a death sentence. Sure it’s inconvenient but I made it. I was productive at work. You have to adapt but isn’t that what humans do. Some people have downgraded to a pre-smartphone device such as a flip phone or the immortal Nokia.
My Mrs. is having to wait for a replacement for her phone that is not working now. It won’t arrive for a couple of days.
So at the end of the day, I have it back. Perhaps I need more time away from it.
