Okay boys and girls... the choice has been made... you have spoken... you have had your moment of negativity or pride... you have ended this day with either sadness or elation... you have practiced the cherished right of freedom laid before you by the choice of those who laid down their lives for you... you have either acted with respect or regret... this is a day of healing or wounding... i choose to be a healer... to move forward... lay aside your words of negativity and praise... we need to get back to love... love for the lost... sad... lonely... homeless... veterans... sick... sore... outcast... unloved... it is also our work to build this country into greatness... not just the one who is sitting in the big chair... there is one winner and one loser... you are all in the field to participate... how you choose to play the game is about you not anyone else... so how will you impress the future with your behavior... will you be a preacher of opinion that cause derision... or will your choice be to bring positive result... will you still stand in your disbelief with jaw dropped and sorrow for your country and what you say is the future... will you with your word and action stand as though you blame others for what you think so a failure... or call it in the name of your children or the future... someone i respect very highly said to me these past days... this world is not going to hell in a hand basket as so many of us use as excuse... we are not with respect to the world situation of only the past in 6 decades... worse off than those of the past generations as our fathers saw of their same fear... if not the more... i lay my head down again this day with praise in my heart and trust in a power that is greater than all the evil of this and days of past... i still choose love... as the greatest of all I know is to love... this i choose...

The memory is a funny being... i see so clearly yesterday... those are the stories we share... our pictures are perfect....full of color... scenes filled with love... life... experience... tasted... treasured... it is part of a bigger picture... i see a life before... when time often stood still just based on a mood... the end of a day... the depth of a moment... captured in time...yet brought to life... through the heart of another... one created in unconditional love... that which brought a light into a world that began dark... story less... distant... misunderstood... yet... as time passed and days of darkness became filled with memories of another day... one who was before a time... who gave an all for the sake of a cause... which unbeknownst to you... your time had not come... yet in the sunrise again on another day... which the heart of this one gave life to another... i for one never felt that truth until I dared to dream... of a small love that would fill a place that was never...
Well this is the end of the first day of possibly many or even a few... i have tried to remain positive, consistent, hard, just... and right this moment I do not know how I feel... what I should feel... this is truly a place where I knew I was and yet decided to deny... the disease infests, inhabits,  enables the distrust to enter behind a steady fast faith... no matter how distant the goal seems to be... the nearer desire... to want to be relived of a heaviness that can only be explained by the action of others... who have been placed in an environment of trust... misfortune... resort... lack of choice... so to end this day in a place of even more uncertainty... no different from the recent past... i wonder outloud... is this really what you had in mind for me... again...
Interesting observation today... i attribute it to society and our lack of patience... our need for speed... lack of consideration... a commodity of time... and while these all mean something of the same... here i will begin this diatribe... i was waiting at the stop light today... the scene played out much like this... the cross traffic to which I was waiting had been brought to a halt due to 3 senior aged women...waiting patiently for the walk icon to flash on the stop light... one gentle spirit was with a walker... this was during a busy time of day and frankly on a corner that were you to step off to soon...at this particular corner of town those who are approaching tend to do so with speed... to which you could easily be sent to your reward... these were and had been waiting patiently for the icon signal to change from hand to walk signal... to which upon progression thru the walk lane... albeit a slow and steady pace... they were met with again the held up hand... traffic all...
