Sorry! sorry! sorry!

Sorry, sorry, sorry!
 
Okay my peeps! I quit submitting stuff because I was feeling like Debbie Downer! I am happy to continue if you are happy to join me in my goings on…
Here’s some stuff that’s working me over:
1 - The Royal Frickin Wedding. Let’s start with the fact that I wish them well. Many happy, healthy, lovely blah blahs… as I wish every marrying and/or married couple. Ain’t that ‘nough said? Do we need to focus on it for even one more second?
2 - K. The Middle East. Can we all pray, send some positive energy, juju, love, peace vibe? I am hurtin’ for the human spirit. That drive, desire, thirst to be free. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t want freedom. I don’t know anyone who does not want to try to create the nature of their own reality. They aren’t just acting up/out they are crying freedom. God be with them.
3 - Reality TV. doing whatever with the stars and all of the other faux TV. that people spend their precious time and energy checking out of their own reality for ought to be telling us something about our collective pain, numbness or lack of participation in each others’ existence. I know that I would rather spend my evening with you - listening to your stories, hearing about your life, being sad, happy, angry, joyful than I would sitting in front of the mindlessness that checks us out of life. Any day. Everyday. I’d rather be with someone I care about than zoned out in front of the box.
4 - Gang stuff. Here is something that blew my mind. I was seated next to a most enjoyable young woman on a recent flight. It didn’t take long before we were talking about life stuff. She was attempting relocation back to the west coast, preferably Oregon. She explained that she is originally from a town right near the Arctic Circle where a ‘trip to town’ is a two day venture. I was very curious about her existence there which she happily shared with me. Ah, Aurora Borealis… one day… one day… Sarah ‘Gosh Darned Nuts’ Palin and what the regular folks in Alaska think of her and day to day life. She told me that some days they get 3 to 4 hours of light and other things we all know about Alaska but wait - get this - she talked about how her town of approximately 8,000 had gotten overwhelmed with what to do about their GANG problem. Yes, I said it, their lip flippin’ gang problem! Go figure.
5 - There is a part of me that wants to ask what the world is coming to but I needn’t bother… the writing is on the wall and it ain’t pretty. Hell in a hand basket! I don’t even feel doom and gloom. I am more of a mind to live it up! Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we shall die! Care to dance anyone? I may not be a star but I am fun and I will be fully present with and for you. Will you for me… “If that’s all there is my friend, let’s keep dancing”. I don’t feel like looking up that lyric to quote it properly. I need to dance.
