What Crosses My Mind

  • Is This Really Liberal Thinking?

    Last night I had a conversation with two people I have tremendous respect for, the subject quickly turned to politics, and I openly expressed my dislike of our current state of affairs. I spoke of my dismay with our current POTUS’s views and motives, and the dialogue took an icy turn to defense and validation.…

  • I Turned Off The News

      Yesterday, I made a conscious decision to turn off the news.

I told…

I wonder sometimes about certain choice if we might know just why it is we find the time to rejoice, however swift hearts grow. When a decision in retrospect is made we sometime slow realize that memory that…

  • The High Road

    Sometimes there is a wonder in the air, how to achieve a certain peace, that evident nature of discovering where our best intentions find release. ~ While outside our circle we witness resolve, the world awaits the next solution, that quandary exists we cannot easily solve, yet seek we do peace in absolution. ~ I…

  • Bigotry Screams

    I live in the United States – all my life, though I have had opportunity to travel, this is where my freedom has always evolved. In recent days we lost Supreme Court Judge Antonin Scalia to death. He was 79 years old. This man was highly respected for his strong views in a conservative lens.…
