Thanks to 80’s movies I can see the type of parties I didn’t get to go to as a teenager. Sixteen Candles is an iconic movie of the era that proves we from back in that day sure knew how to throw a rager.
I turned sixteen the year after this movie was released.
Enjoy the goodness that you see.
Today is the first day of Summer in the northern hemisphere. It’s also National Selfie day so I’m recognizing both with just one picture.
Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. Juneteenth marks the anniversary of the announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army General Gordon Granger on June 19, 1865, proclaiming freedom for enslaved people in Texas.
To all celebrating today may this always be a day of remembering and reflection on the freedom to live life and full of opportunities to make the world a better place.
To all the dads out there Happy Father’s Day. Being a father means a lot of different things these days. Some moms play the role of dads, and some fill the role of dad through adoption, marriage, and so many other ways. Enjoy this day good people.
I believe that God is expressed differently in different people. Everyone is a part of a journey where we are walking one another home. The divine can be found in different places with different faces. For many, their faith is a part of the DNA of their people. Others enter into a relationship with God based upon a sacrifice.
It’s possible that myths have true meaning. It’s interesting when all that intersects. So no matter if you are team Jesus/Yahweh, team Athena or team Vishnu you are seeking and searching. Don’t wait to go to eternity, realize that heaven can be found here and now.
Love one another no matter how you worship, pray or engage in a spiritual community.
