New things

I try to be open to new things, but it is hard sometimes. For instance, they have changed the interface for writing posts for this site. I had no warning (that I saw, anyway), and now I have already spent over 60 minutes doing what I used to do in about 20 . . . → Read More: New things

Congress is finally starting to look like the people they represent

Wow! It is so good to see a Congress that is starting to look like the people they represent! But as I watch all the news about it, I can’t help but think, “Won’t it really be great one day when this will be the norm, and it is no big deal.”

My New Year’s Wish

For this New Year, I wish that we could all see the beauty in ourselves. I wish that we could all realize that we are enough, just the way we are now. And I wish that we could all realize that it is okay to acknowledge the good in us, just like it is okay . . . → Read More: My New Year’s Wish

I am tired of political ads

I have to admit that I am getting very tired of all these political ads, from all sides. I have said this before; I notice that others are saying it also. Perhaps we need to change to a system where one is not allowed to speak of what their opponent is going to do, but . . . → Read More: I am tired of political ads
