Old friends, best friends, new friends, colleagues, acquaintances, pals, buddies, and the term no one really wants to be, a frenemy.
Friends are a strange, volatile, contradictory, yet sticky phenomenon. They are made, crafted, shaped, molded, created by focused effort and good intent. And yet, true friendship, once recognized, in its essence is effortless. Everyone is someone's friend, even when they think they are all alone.
An attack on our democracy that was incited by the POTUS, Republican Senators, the GOP House Leader and abetted by cops. Are Americans to expect a defiant finale by #BlameDuckDonald as he fades away into the sunset?
Meanwhile, why have none of these given a briefing and answered questions yet?

The last time I can recall a 13 day period that was as dangerous as the period we face today was during the Cuban Missile Crisis, when American leadership and the Soviet Union were involved in an intense political and military standoff in October 1962 over the installation of nuclear-armed misses 90 miles away from the coast of the USA.
Life is short and unpredictable. Do the best job in everything you do and with everyone you interact with.
Live life to the fullest means facing your fears with bravery, an open mind, and a lack of prejudice.
Nothing is impossible if you work for it and are determined to achieve your individual goals.
It is only worth the sacrifice if it makes you and it makes your loved ones happy.
Expand your consciousness and have a broader range of life experiences.
Be real and always yourself, your own person, and follow your instincts.
The function of the Congressional so-called leaders is not overturning elections or following orders from any foreign powers.
Our young Democracy is in great danger without swift action to protect it. Trump incited an attack on Capitol Hill indicating that he is deeply unstable. The American Cabinet must invoke the 25th amendment before it’s too late and he spreads more hate. Congress must also pursue impeachment and removal of the President. This is not the Grand Old Party of Abraham Lincoln.
Following a long and violent day, US Congress has affirmed President-elect Joe Biden and VP elects Kamala Harris's victory after rioting by a Hoodlum presidential mob on Capitol Hill delayed proceedings and caused multiple deaths and destruction.
POTUS summoned the thugs to Washington’s DC, then spoke at their moron march, offered to walk them over to the US Capitol and abandoned them, but had much praise for them after their lawless and out of order actions.
We The People voted and American democracy will continue to prevail as our founders designed the process to take place. This is the first hurrah for the Democrats, but it's the last one for President-elect Jow Biden. Many keep asking when this moron marathon end and the answers are technically today, but realistically at the inaugural.
In Western Christianity, the feast commemorates principally (but not solely) the visit of the Magi to the Christ Child, and thus Jesus' physical manifestation to the Gentiles. It is sometimes called Three Kings' Day.
Nor everybody hates Donald yet, but time will tell when everyone learns the damage he’s done and wonders why if it is what it is.
Family members blast him, his neighbors don’t want him around, he alienated our allies and some nations are warning him not to even consider visiting.
