Saturday Open Thread

I'm on my way out the door for the Americans for Prosperity event at Turner Field. I hear Grover Norquist backed out of speaking today. Not sure if it was a scheduling conflict or something else.

Consider this an open thread. Have a good Saturday.

Today was an interesting day. Life has stirred once more and the musing of interest has once again moved itself into a prominent place in the scheme of things. Words have been spoken by those who try to understand and only grasp the minute icons of lonely little atoms of scholarly attention. The usual happenings occurred.
Blindly spoken intentions of a wandering gypsy of a candidate, the censorship of free speech, a war a half a world away, the fight for something to eat, and the struggle to know if tomorrow will be better. But life is much more that this it is the love of your family, the quiet of the early morning, the solitude of watching a whimsical cloud, the evening sunset, and the knowledge that death was cheated one more day for some. Lonely people probably found they were still lonely. The angry are still angry. The tired are still tired. But life continues. Ugly words spoken to one another continue. The silence of the shadow upon the ground
is louder than that of the
most influential who think they are important. The rich became richer. The poor became poorer. The wanttobe prominent are still trying. The only thing brought out in the day of miraculous breath is the knowledge that people are the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Beware of friends who talk a good game and want everything for self. Watch out for the thorn in the hidden surroundings of the mystical fortune many have snared. Walk with the knowledge that you can make a difference if you indeed try. But it is the effort of trying that weans many from the strength to start.
Yes it has been a typical day in the shallow world of mankind. One of predictable sanctifications
filled with the fragrance of a sewer. Man has brought about his own future and has only to look in the mirror to find his destiny. Our freedom's and liberties have been reduced by those who would only find them as a curiosity and as a obstacle to what they want out of life and that is greed. Tomorrow is another day here in our paradise we have made for ourselves. Will man ever find what he is looking for I doubt it. Will he ever be happy with anything truly : likely not. Will he strive to create controversy in everything he accomplishes: definitely. This world of ours has faced many a trial from disease, famine, upheavals, wars, and an uncertain future faced with something very large, very uncaring, and moving very fast. But currently the biggest problem faced by our world is us. We will only find our way if we understand our place in things. We have not yet found that place. Maybe if we have the time we can gain a fraction of the place we are searching for and first we must look within ourselves and say can we. I hope everyone has a wonderful day tomorrow and think about your world around you including your neighbors and begin to seek your way.

Where is Gerry Adams? Does anyone know?

There is a certain food pantry in the Stockbridge area that may need to be examined by the proper authorities. They have turned away a legitimate ministry that distributes food to many needy families across the northern Henry County area. There is a certain air of trouble that is prevalent in this matter.
I will in the days to come
make sure that this place is thoroughly investigated and see that the proper authorities know that they have turned away a group who does very good work toward helping the needy in our community. I can not stand it when the people who really need help are turn aside by someone who feels their authority to fill their ego is more important. When they are actually not as important as they feel they are. A mistake was made by this person who humiliated my son today when he was just helping a friend. This was not a good move on their part because I love my son and they have brought out the ire of the Doctor.

Actions brought forth by those who do not know the answers is a very foolish road to take. This road will lead to humiliation and will take one into the pit of the abyss. Talk to others about your pain. Tell them what or who is causing this pain. Bring forth a dialogue of questions that have meaning and the answers are coherent to any individual.
Find your way through the smoke and mirrors of the debacle of the day. See the
black pit of the political arena. The people who find themselves in this arena are
like the people who would find themselves in the arena with lions brought forth for entertainment by the mighty Roman Empire. They had lost their morals and lost the ability to be able to sustain themselves.
Doesn't this sound familiar?
There are people running for office today who do not know the meaning of what office they seek. There are those who judge who do not know how to find their way through the desolution of the rights of man. Can we do any better? I doubt it. There are questions to be asked and will we ever get the answers or will it be an answer written by someone who has an agenda in how they can help them later. Watch, listen, and understand the meanings of the words spoken by these folks who want to lead us into that uncertain future.
Our future can be decided by
the minds of those who know
and will try their best but will that be good enough. I truly hope so for our children. The destiny of man is filled with the knowledge that we made our world as it is and now we have to live with it. Can it be changed? It is forever changing and shifting as sand in the wind. Wars will be fought over the things we take for granted such as food, water, and a decent place to live. This war is being waged as we speak and have we stopped to think about it with the multitude of meaningless dribble that fills many a mind. Yesterday was just that yesterday filled with history. Today is now. We look at it with wondering eyes trying to get through till tomorrow. Tomorrow has not come yet. It is that future we haven't made yet and is filled with the unlikely attempts by people to gain something they cannot have and that is the knowledge to know what will happen. The future or the next hour can be filled with joy or the fact we are about to know our maker. It is a dark area that should remain dark to the mind. Sure plan for a future filled with everything you think you really want but don't count on that future being there waiting because it has not materialized. Our little world has it's place in the scheme of things and it is us the little creatures that squander the chances of immortality based on the
fact that we just don't understand why we are here and where we are going. Some do not care less and would not think no more that taking a breath. It is the minute number of people who do cast a thought into what we are here for and why we have been chosen to be here that will find the logical answer to the meaning of life. Guard this life, protect it and try to nourish it with the facts that have garnered a small corner in the little chambers of the brain. In our brains is stored a multitude of knowledge of the past we have lived and the present we are sharing.
Disease sometimes robs us of our memories and we fall short of who we were but we are still who we are even if we cannot find ourselves.
Look at the beautiful sunset this evening after such a beautiful day and that memory will be with you forever in the channels of the wonderous mind. Carry yourselves into that uncertain future with strength and knowledge that we make that future with every action we take and it is those actions that will determine how much longer we will have our existence here on our beautiful little world. Seek and you will find your answers. Ask questions because we are never too old to learn something that will show character to even the weakest minded people. Stand up without fear and say I am somebody and I can make a difference. And when you see a wrong then try to fix that wrong but don't attempt it without the knowledge that you did try with your best intentions. Go forward folks and make this place a better place not just for today but for our children and their's if we only have the time. Thank you for listening. Listening is a
form of saying thankyou for
talking to us about the things that do matter.

Justification of a situation is the knowing that what you have donw is right and will be of some value to others in the end.
As a person tires of working on a subject he feels that all his work he has done on a project may not be appreciated. Appreciation is like respect it has to be earned. I have in my life been involved with a project to try and save this little planet that we live upon. That was between 1983 and 1985. I hope that the people that knew the story of the project did appreciate my work and that have been able to expand upon my work to try and fix a problem that will be here one day.
Words of wisdom from a tired old Doctor is to find your way in life and find your way to be able to speak to the Lord and ask for forgiveness and seek your destiny. Perspective has been lost here in our county as to how to know what is right and wrong. It is right to fix your mistakes that one has made but it is wrong to subvert your position with subtle
tactics. I hope everyone finds their share of what life is all about. Strive to be a better person and leave greed by the wayside.
Money is only a necessary evil that one must try to gain to pay man's bills. That same money has brought greed to so many. This money one day want be worth a tinkers twit. Knowing the right way to pursue a situation is a valuable piece of information. I have seen the agony of pain and the cost of it on the human element and the disruption of one's life by disease that has no face and has no mersey. People can show mersey disease is only a cold blooded killer.
The disease that is racking my own body is destroying the very fabric of my existence and there will come a time when I will need help just letting someone know that I would like a drink of water. Is life worth all this? Many take the easy way out but I am one who values life and will fight tooth and nail to hold own to that life. I want to see my children learn that there father did not go out of this world without trying to do all he could to sustain his life for not just himself but for others. Inspiration can be a variation of want of life. I hope that I have inspired those out there over the years to ask questions about their surroundings. Ask who, what, where, when and why.
Seek your answers and you will find. Follow your intuitions or your gut feelings they are usually a good guide to the answers that one seeks. I have lived with pain for so long now and it has not been easy but it has given me the chance to feel the pains of my father and mother and grandparents. One does not know how another person feels until he goes through what that person went through. Everyone handles disease's differently and they can see
the top of the mountain they are climbing and can find it with them to get the top. This mountain cannot be seen by others it is the mountain that is within that must be climbed. I truly hope that everyone out there is blessed by the Holy Father
and that you do find what makes you happy and walk with distinction in the our world of unrest and upheaval.
