War

Is war necessary
Is it good?
Depends on who you ask
Depends on the situation

It is never easy

There’s a war on a lot of things
Christmas
Easter
People
Souls
Spirit
Ideology

Edwin Starr asked what is it good for?
Nothing he said.

There’s a war on
Love
People
Politics
Religion
Heart
Mind

War saves lives and also ends it

What are you fighting for and against today?

Do we have to go there, sometimes yes but I hope never.

Looking

Everyone Is Looking For
A smiling face
A place of grace
A lovers hand

We are all looking for,
Peace in the chaos
Space to grow
Affection and attraction
Perfection that will never be

Everyone is looking for
Something lost that will never be found

Food for the soul
Time that is gone by
Cures for the body

What are you looking for?

Sometimes

Sometimes you just gotta wonder
Sometimes you shake your head
Sometimes life can hand you a raw deal
Sometimes you are blessed beyond measure
Sometimes people make mistakes
Sometimes they get away with doing horrible things.
Sometimes life doesn’t make sense
Sometimes you need to run away screaming
Sometimes we need a break
Sometimes it’s time to pack it in
Sometimes you want a fresh start

I Am A WordPress Convert

wordpress-logo.jpgIt’s safe to say I am a WordPress convert. There I said it. Now I feel better. With all due respect to Tumblr, I now feel like I am blogging seriously now. There are amazing tools here for expression, communication and connections.

This is now my official blog of note. When you want to know what is going on with me, http://tonyburgess1969.net is where you go. It is good to be here.

This Bloggers Post Length

I was told in college English/Composition to write about something as long as you think it will get your point across. Personally I don’t have it in me to churn out 1000 words at the drop of a hat. My posts are short by design to inform you quickly about stuff going on and I will insert a picture to support what I am saying every so often. My experience on Tumblr told me that attention spans are short these days and I should adjust my blogging accordingly. I respect those who can do 1000-1500 words daily. However that is not me. This post ended at 112 words. Perhaps I can learn to do more.

They Call This Thing Blogging: Perhaps It’s More

It starts with a thought in our minds, then travels to our fingers to the device we use to connect with the world.

Our words come forth like a waterfall on to the screen to be seen by people who only seem to exist in binary.

It’s those moments in time when a post is what someone needs the most.

We do know our words will mesh with theirs to make a wonderful community of different thoughts, feelings and emotions.

The many words are pressed here forever more.

Their words come forth on that screen which makes them real, organic, pure.

They call this thing blogging and we know for sure that it inspires us to do something more.

My friends keep on blogging, lets all see what is in store.
