OBSERVATIONS OPINIONS:THE PRESENT
Is it any wonder that the novel by George Orwell, 1984, has recently become a best seller?
PRESIDENTIAL QUESTIONS
President Trump,
Would you object to someone grabbing Melania’s pussy?
Have you thought of or grabbed Ivanka’s pussy?
I understand you think Ivanka is hot.
THE FUTURE
My daughter, Lynn, is marching on Saturday.
She is an great daughter and outstanding person.
Just recognized by the USDA as a woman farmer, she is making her mark in the world.
Let’s hope her generation gets involved to make this country and world a better place.
And takes notes for the future.
OBSERVATIONS & OPINIONS: WHAT IS OUR FUTURE?
There was a time when I viewed the news on both Fox and MSNBC. I saw reports on both stations concerning the same incident. And by their reporting, I could not believe they were discussing the same issue. I have come to realize, in this day and age with so many channels available, you can select your source of facts and hear what you what to hear, what fits your view of life.
I’ve stopped listening to the news.
I should be using this blog to tell of my writing success. Unfortunately, if I depended on my career news, this blog would cease to exist. I should be writing articles to help other writers be published. That will come soon, I promise.
Now, back to the purpose of this article.
As I stated at the beginning, in this day and age a vast amount of reporting is slanted. You can hear what you want to hear without facts getting in the way. But with almost everyone able to record what is happening around them and countless cameras observing our lives there is the opportunity to record the raw truth. However, it is easy to alter photos and videos. It comes to a point ‘what do you believe’?
As an aside, I chuckle when someone decides to rob a convenience store and there are enough photos of the event to fill a family album.
To prove my point on video alteration, I saw a video on UTUBE of a propane leak and people were leaving their cars and running down the highway to safety, then the massive explosion came. I also saw the same video again, but this time there was a flying saucer in the sky and the world was under attack. Both presented as fact.
I have seen, granted in a news source known to report the news fitting their agenda, videos of protests occurring in North Carolina which, in all honest, scared the shit out of me. Protests where freedom of speech was denied by the authorities and arrests were made of whom ever made the effort to voice their opinion. I felt as if I was watching a movie in which a foreign government or calculated purpose was taking over our country. I could not believe this was my home. I don’t think these were altered, but once or twice in the last 69 years I’ve been wrong. This is to provide a bit of levity. We all need a bit of laughter these days, and a spoon full of sugar.
POEMS & FLEETING THOUGHTS: VAN GOGH
Van Gogh
Can you imagine
The beauty the world
Would have missed
If Van Gogh
Was on
Antidepressants?
POEMS & FLEETING THOUGHTS: LIFE PERFECT
LIFE PERFECT
The only place
Where life is perfect
Is in the heart
Of a dog.
POEMS AND FLEETING THOUGHTS
EXISTENCE
Look to the sky
To see we are small,
In the vastness of space
What is our importance?
RANTS & RAVES: THIS COUNTRY’S FUTURE
I wrote this piece on November, 8th, but I thought I would bring it to you.
We have gotten to the point that whomever wins, we are in trouble. Both candidates are dishonest, but one is a psychopath which, because of the poor state of our government, is able to run for president.
Let’s get our act together and wrestle government from big money. I know this is a dream, but we must continue to right so many wrongs which control our lives.
This country is in trouble, and no matter your beliefs, we must somehow find a way to create a government which works for everyone, and keeps the interest of our country first.
