Monday, October 5, 2015

Today is Monday and it feels like it. It’s going to be one of those days, I can tell. Powering through is the order of the day. I hope it gets better as it goes along. Let’s see what happens. I think caffeine is going to be my friend. Have the best day possible good people.

A Returning Blogger

When a blogger returns to the scene after a absence it’s a joyous thing. Over time you get used to seeing them post daily and then all of a sudden they disappear so you wonder what happened to them. I am always glad to see folks come back after being away. For some a break is needed because they get writers block or perhaps they need to find their passion again.

Sometimes a bloggers computer is on the fritz or perhaps there are temporary Internet problems which make blogging impossible. I have taken breaks from blogging but I am not gone very long because this is a passion for me. Unfortunately some bloggers have to leave for safety sake and that is a horrible way to be forced offline.

To all who have come and gone and are back again its a joyous time. Don’t stay gone so long next time! Keep on blogging!

Deaths In America – Terrorism vs. Gun Violence

This graph is astonishing and sad at the same time. Something needs to be done about gun violence in our country. The terror at home is a serious problem. I get that citizens have the right to bear arms but I am not sure the founding fathers could have envisioned people with their own private arsenal. We live in such a wild west place now that it is truly scary.

A Ramble About Senseless Violence

Senseless violence is a commentary on the times in which we live. We are living in a wild west world and lives are in the balance. I work for a blood bank where we are a point of response to calamity and chaos. Our work is to help sustain and preserve life in times of pain and injury. I am truly sad about what happened in Oregon and other places. Perhaps its time that something be done about it. Grace, peace and God’s mercy.

All we are saying is give peace a chance.

Hello October 2015! You came up on us fast.

In A Slump, Keep Your Cool

When one is in a slump whether it be personal or professional it’s always good to ask for help. Asking questions of others who have life experience to help you though tough times and can make things better for everyone. Never be afraid to admit when you don’t know something. I have learned to be persistent and patient when you find yourself in a tough situation. Work smart and keep your cool a slump is a temporary thing.
