It was a buzz cut and beard trim day. All it takes is a trimmer to get my face and head looking its best. Thanks to Pam for making me look good.

Cold
America is a cold place where ICE does things that freeze the soul. Nostalgia can be a dual-edged sword, but I long for days when there was warmth and sanity. There is so much going on that leaves a tear to the eye and a clenching of the heart. Life is hard, and the struggle is indeed real. It seems like Winter is everywhere and people are stuck out in the cold. Too many lives have perished in it. I wonder if the future is going to be frigid like the present. Friends safety comes from being out in from the cold. May no one else lose their lives and may they be safe. It’s cold, and I wonder when it will be warm again.
Status Update
Friends, things are tough right now. As a blogging community, let’s stick together and help each other figure stuff out. Our voices of calm and care are needed now more than ever. Peace and love to you all.
Dinner Tonight – Massaman Curry
The Soup Diva is working her magic in our kitchen tonight, preparing something warm and comforting on a cold night. It’s a great Thai dish.
Celebrating A Dreamer and A Doer – Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Today is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day in the United States. He was a minister, a leader, a dreamer, and a civil rights icon. I feel like it’s more important than ever to remember all the things he did and to continue the fight for equality, justice, and love. The people of the world are better because he lived what he preached and made things better for so many. His work continues on in those he influenced. We need that work now more than ever. Thank you, Dr. King, for putting hands and feet to your faith.
Something About Feelings
I have talked about feelings before, and I have a few more things to say.
Everyone has feelings. They are wonderful, but they can also be a problem. I struggle with my feelings because I feel very deeply about things. A lot of times I don’t know how to manage it out of fear and perhaps some societal norms that men have about the subject.
Dealing with one’s feelings and emotions takes work, and I don’t always do my best there. Knowing your feelings requires you to sit with them and hope for the best. All I know is that “everybody hurts” sometimes, and that time can heal how you feel.
