I know, I know, many times I come across preachy and sometimes negative but there really is just cause ya know. I was never that interested in history as a kid. I was just caught up in life around me, all the bells and whistles as technology changed faster and faster and that everything wasContinue reading “Round and Round”

Blahdidity Blah Blah Blog
It’s been quite some time since I’ve had the motivation to sit down and actually blog again. I can’t quite put my finger on the delay but some of it has to do with motivation. I had faithfully blogged almost weekly for over a year, maybe even two and this lapse has been around twoContinue reading “Blahdidity Blah Blah Blog”
Once I was a Child
As time goes by and age creeps up ever so quickly, I often reflect on years gone by. We don’t think much of the future when we’re children but now as an aging adult I sure do think often of my youth. As children we live in the moment, care free, simple, constant learning. WeContinue reading “Once I was a Child”
Mirror Mirror
Mirror, mirror on the wall. I’m almost positive there is a mirror in almost every household. What it’s for? It is to see a “reflection” of yourself. It allows us to see ourselves outside of our own eyes. But understand, the reflection that one sees is not how the world sees you. A mirrored reflectionContinue reading “Mirror Mirror”
Life is like a Yo-Yo
Most of us know what a yo-yo is. It has changed over the years but so have we as a people. Life has changed dramatically just in my lifetime. I remember our first microwave. I remember TV being only certain channels and turning off at night with the star bangled banner and then static. IContinue reading “Life is like a Yo-Yo”
Cracker Jacks
Do you remember the molasses and caramel flavored popcorn in a red, white and blue box? The familiarity of seeing the little sailor boy and his dog on the outside packaging. The anticipation of the sweet treat on our tongues. And of course, the excitement of dumping the entire box out on the counter toContinue reading “Cracker Jacks”
Treadmill of Nullity
What is life? Simple but profound question. It’s been asked countless times and answered in countless ways. People write books about it, teach about it, hypothesize about it. I’m no different in sharing my own thoughts about it. One of the masses with a pin prick concept of a thought. I truly cannot articulate toContinue reading “Treadmill of Nullity”
Moments of This Way or That
I have been reflecting more and more about my past as I age. One of the biggest deathbed confessions is regret. I have much regret, and I have a lot of life to live. But it is hard to have hope when so many instances could have been avoided or done differently. I know weContinue reading “Moments of This Way or That”
Shades of Grey
As I’ve aged, I’ve been able to glean some wisdom along the way. That’s what we’re supposed to do, right? Gain wisdom through mistakes, experience and triumphs. But as I look around, I see so many shades of grey manifesting about me. The teenage teenyboppers acting like they know everything in the world, when theyContinue reading “Shades of Grey”
Nobody Told Me There Would Be Days Like This
When we are children, we have no care in the world. We get clothes and shoes to wear, we get toys and more toys, we get food; provided, cooked and cleaned up all for nothing. The life of a child is carefree, for the most part. There are always putrid exceptions where children are abused,Continue reading “Nobody Told Me There Would Be Days Like This”
