In today’s day and age, it seems people are having a hard time finding which way is up. I think they are having a hard time finding any which way actually. We get so lost in growing up living like the Jones that we forget who we really are or really could be. As I’veContinue reading “Which Way Is Up”

I recently shared a post on Facebook that I did ten years ago, and the comments were all the same. “Ten years? Where did ten years go? Dang that went fast!” Yes, it does. We spend our childhood just daydreaming and playing. We spend our teenage years thinking we know everything and that nothing willContinue reading “Watch Out Time Will Get You”

Boy oh boy where do I start with this one? l don’t know how to share this so that people will be able to understand and possibly make a change. But I’ll give it my best shot. I am wise enough to know that we grow up the way society is around us. If youContinue reading “Blind Obedience”

As hard as it may seem I am like most people to a degree. I know I know I talk a lot about being aware and that’s just it, being aware also lets me know I’m human. I struggle with my own issues, and I struggle with life’s issues I guess you can say. IContinue reading “Entitlement”

I’m very inquisitive, maybe too much so, but I have a desire to understand why things are the way they are. I have an appetite to learn why people do what they do. I have a curiosity why people believe what they believe. So, I am constantly asking why. I’d like to think I justContinue reading “Why Ask Why”

As I’ve gotten older, I am able to reflect better on situations around me. If you have gained wisdom going through life hopefully this is one attribute you can gleam from. But that being said, one of the things I see is that we all must be entertained. It started long ago when our brainsContinue reading “Must Be Entertained”

Yes, I said that right, it’s a sham, not a shame. According to Wikipedia a Sham is a thing that is not what it is purported to be. Or falsely present something as the truth. I don’t feel that trying to get by in life is a shame, I think it is a sham. WeContinue reading “Its A Sham”

I’m not sure ya’ll know what a tumbleweed really is. It can actually be different plants. So just like people it comes in various kinds. What happens with a tumble weed is it grows like any other plant, nice and green and vibrant, and then it dries up and is uprooted from the soil andContinue reading “Death of a Tumbleweed”
