On one of the social media channels I follow someone posted one of those positive memes about Donald Trump. Here’s the text from the picture… “Two days after the 9/11 attack real DonaldTrump was at Ground Zero with hundreds of workers that he paid out of his own pocket to help find and identify victims. This was long before he was even thinking of running for POTUS.” And … The rest of the story…

Depending on where you are, it could be the start of another day. Or the finish. But I wonder if you’ll take the time (or if you took the time) to look out your window and remember to be grateful for your life. Will you (or did you) share your love, today? Because, no matter what time it is, if you’re reading this, you … The rest of the story…
I scheduled myself to share this with you yesterday. Because the so-called “holiday” is supposed to be September 1. And obviously today is September 2. Well, it’s obvious to me. You might be reading this on another day. Anyway, I got sidetracked and forgot. The name of this holiday is based on an idiom that’s been around since the mid-15th century. “No rhyme nor … The rest of the story…
There it was again. Another story, in a long stream of similar stories, about adults helping a helpless baby. I mean, come on. Are you kidding me? It’s just a baby. It’s not like it’s important or anything. The reporter told the story like this. I’m not quoting. But this is the gist of it… If adults didn’t act fast enough, it would have … The rest of the story…
I laugh (mostly to myself) when people say something like “Must be nice to get paid even when you don’t work.” Or something to that effect. And I got that kind of ignorant comment, a lot, back in my full time traveling musician days. I think my favorite one was a guy who saw me lying by a hotel pool. “Must be nice to … The rest of the story…
It’s funny (odd, not humorous) what you can stumble upon, or across, when you do an online search. For example, I wanted to share some sad information today, and I had an idea for a different way to do it. So, I typed in my search phrase. And most of the results I found were about a Japanese manga series called “Death Note.” Yeah, … The rest of the story…
I just watched a video about wolves re-introduced into Yellowstone (The park. Not the show.) And the video producers showed how much those wolves changed the ecosystem. Yes, nature is amazing. And connected. But here’s how the person who shared the video described it… “🦩Ecosystem restoration hinges on supporting nature 🍁create a balance⚖️; biodiversity richness and ecological integrity With more balance between predator🦑 and … The rest of the story…
It was rainy day in Colorado. Just about this time of year, it was a cool mid-spring rain. But then the sun came out. And you should’ve seen the vivid full spectrum rainbow that popped out. That happens a lot in Colorado. What colors are in a full spectrum rainbow? Violet. Indigo. Blue. Green. Yellow. Orange. Red. And the seven colors are typically listed from the shortest wavelength the human … The rest of the story…
For those who are loved and appreciated, mothers live on far past their time here on Earth. Today, May 8, 2022, marks the second Mother’s Day without my own mom to call. She died about 90 days before last year’s Mother’s Day. But she lives on in the memories of those of us who love her. I’m sure your mothers live on, too. Whether … The rest of the story…
I read an article on LinkedIn that was so incredibly stupid. And part of the stupidity is how the article was high in the feed of a platform (supposedly) focused on business. Why was the article stupid? Because it glorified black men. And that’s a huge part of the problem with so-called “social justice warriors.” They do what the claim to hate. One of … The rest of the story…
