  • Actions Are Stone . . .

    Do not be swayed by tears which well and have no basis in words of the person when actions pronounce another philosophy .  We can always well into tears but our actions   will betray us. ***** Do not accept apology for inadequate behavior when nothing is done to correct  it.  Apologizing  does not relinquish…

  • Someone Has To Do The Plowing. . . .

    Hope And hope is the drug, the elixir, the stimulant, the narcotic, the life saver, the god. That tomorrow will be better, that there will be a rainbow, that the snows will come and cover the door, that the rains will come and relieve the parched ground, that the vineyards will be planted, that love…

  • In Being A Child. . . .

    The Importance of Differences. . . If it seems that I persist in speaking of differences in perspective, it is because that is what makes us unique,  it is because of my intense desire to keep our planet alive and this classroom operative for those already here and those yet to come, who desire to…

  • Mega Observations. . .

    Mega Observations. . . Oftentimes in retrospect, we would wish we demanded someone to grow up to matters requiring some degree of maturity.  But how to do that?  When a thing is outside our frame of reference, we will fight tooth and nail to remain innocent and free of taint of anything unfamiliar.  Or what…

  • However Long. . .

    However long. . . . Coming into every family will be what a relative calls a misfit.  And the label will stick.  This often is  a child with a need to know everything and talk.  And more often than not,  there will not be anyone to listen.  Because there will be other children, work to…

  • Considered Opinion. . . All Connected. . .

      Considered Opinion, all Connected. . . It is good to see the best in people but one cannot be accountable for everyone.  One cannot wish them onto a platform they are not an example for. ****** Too many children grow up knowing the failures of their parents and think their own fabric is torn.…

  • Thoughts Brought To The Table. . . .

    Eternal is the hour which grants the heart time.  Sacred is the vessel which yields the cup. ***** Life lived on a part time basis is for some more than enough to handle. ***** There is no talent which will be left unused and no path of interest unexplored. ***** There is sufficient time for…

  • The Pain of Thought. . .

    The Pain of Thought. . . They speak with their doctors, their counselors and those with backward collars that they are anxious. And cannot explain the panic and the night sweats that engulf them even in their sleep. They read they say all manner of  books and articles on positive thinking and watch only those…

  • In Prayerful Consideration. . .

    Everything teaches . . . and not being one to allow opportunity to be lost,  I caught the moment and brought forth something long on my heart.  Even as a child I gave my mother dyspepsia  because of my questions.  The God of my mother was so busy watching this 8 year old to keep…

  • As The Script Was Being Written. . .

    Oftentimes as we age,  we wonder, and some of us are prone to wonder a lot, how to have done things differently.  And  considering what we knew at the time,  what situations presented,  the conclusions reached are that we did the best we could.  We gave it our best shot considering.   I understand that on…
