Too Late For Hillary and The Donald?

Submitted by ub on

The strangest of bedfellows, Hilary and The Donald's worlds are quickly collapsing in front of their very own eyes and there's little either one of them can do now. Ted and Bernie have lots more to gain after Wisconsin.

The two damaged front runners must do well in New York to regain their momentum. Not enough to just win, he has to dominate in the polls.

Medical Technology

I am undergoing a series of medical procedures, which should answer the questions my doctors have raised recently... What's up with that?

Media marvels will be allowing hospital cameras to travel down my throat and also into my intestines for inspection (I've been assured that its not going to be the same camera) these tests, along with a scheduled cat scan ( I don't care for mean cats, or dogs for that matter) are being performed to take a closer look at my digestive system. I am told the stomach is the engine of our body.

Trump's Turing Point

America is already great. The Donald may wish to concentrate time, money and energy on making his brand great again because politically, me thinks he has managed to drag into the mud, or perhaps something worse.

Campus Free Expression

The survey says 75 percent of students think colleges should expose students to all types of speech and viewpoints, but a majority of students believe campus climates prevent many from saying what they believe to avoid offending others.

Make Love, Not War

Loving humans have been fighting with each other and hurting one another for thousands of years and it has to stop. Too many humans act like savages, or is it that the life of mankind is destined to be a nasty fight?

Anthropologists have argued that organized warfare didn't come about until political hierarchies rose to power. They say war emerged after the agricultural revolution, when fat cats owned more resources than needed, and they felt it was worth fighting for.

Everyone Can't Be in A Front Row

Submitted by ub on

Life is a theater so invite your audiences carefully. Not everyone is holy enough and healthy enough to have a FRONT ROW seat in our lives.
There are some people in your life that need to be loved from a distance.

It's amazing what you can accomplish when you let go, or at least minimize your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not-going-anywhere relationships, friendships, fellowships and family!
Everyone Can't be in Your FRONT ROW.

Observe the relationships around you. Pay attention to: Which ones lift and which ones lean?
Which ones encourage and which ones discourage?
