The Saddest Story
Ever
©5-2-10

There is a old saying that we are not suppose to judge our fellow man or
woman for that matter
until we have walked in their moccasins.
Well most
of the county has heard the story about the "Wiley Angel"
that was found in
a field near Dallas. In was only a matter of days
before the child was
identified and his maternal grandmother was arrested.
The sick child had lay
hidden in some tall grass for three days before found by a maintenance
person.
She had removed his feeding tube and left this seriously
handicapped child to die alone.
This is the most heart breaking story and it
is hard to believe it happened in our country.
Leaving the handicapped to die
probably happen in the past in many other places in the world,
But not in my
part of the world. Or at least not that we hear of regularly.
. At first
glance I was horrified that this woman could do something so vile to her own
kin.
Then as the story began to unfold , I found other people to be
angry with.
The mother had dumped the little boy with her mother and never
looked back.
The father paid court ordered child support but never took
the time to visit
or offer to help out with his demanding care.
Relatives
on the father side seemed to be unaware of the amount of care this baby
required.
Who knows how much support the older grandmother got
in
the day to day routine required , by the grandfather.
They were living in a
motel. Resources may have been limited.
How long could you or I stand the
stress of caring for this child?
What would be the straw that breaks the
camel’s back ?
When every one else had abandoned him his grandmother keep
on until one day she could not go on another day.
She did not make the
right decision to solve the problems
but I would hate to have to sit on the
jury that will decide her fate.
Does she deserve jail or mercy.
Living
with this may be punishment enough.

Are We Turning
Into A Nation Of
Voyeurs ?
©3-22-2010

|
My dictionary says a voyeur is one who obtains sexual gratification
from observing individuals who are engaged in sexual acts or a prying
observer who is seeking the sordid or scandalous. I think we are
turning into a nation of voyeurs.
We are being fed a daily doze
of sordid tales about the rich and famous men of our world. The fact
that some rich man has been known to go "whoring" is nothing new.
Even poor men have been known to be trapped by their gonads.
What seems new to me is that the women involved seem to think that "shacking
up" with some body’s else’s husband some how makes them "special".
Why do reporters find these women news worthy and vent
their every comment across in head lines ?
All of that
golfer’s "one night stands" seem to think that having sex
with a famous
person somehow makes them a special person. They are about as special
as a pay toilet. Today I saw where a would be" king maker "was
quoted as saying how sorry she felt for her lover’s "dying wife".
She felt so sorry, but that did not stop her from having
unprotected sex and bringing an innocent baby into a sordid affair.
Get real. Just what her lover's family needs to have
this splashed all over the world again. Why doesn’t she just
shut up ? Maybe in time the marriage might begin to heal and the
wife could recover from the invasion of her marriage but no the
mistress just keeps picking the scab. Don’t these women have
anything remotely like a feeling of shame or embarrassment.
Don’t you just love the latest excuse for infidelity. They call it"
sexual addiction" If that was the problem the men would be
chasing their wives around the bedroom twice a day. Sexual problems
are the result of the individual not growing spiritually.
Until a person opens up their hears and let it be filled with unselfish
love they will continue to be stuck in low gear. Love requires
commitment and some time sacrifice. When they wrote the song, " I
never promised you a rose garden", they got that line right. A long
time relationship is like a roller coaster ride. It has both highs and
lows. Some times it is exciting and in the down times a little
dull and boring. With spiritual growth comes deeper commitment and
embers of love often catch on fire once again, sometimes to the couples
surprise.
Years ago when I was a business women, I came to the conclusion,
that if a man will cheat on his wife; Then odds were that you could
not trust them to work with out supervision. They will cheat on
their jobs, time sheets, reports and loyalty. Whether it is church or
a civil ceremony, he made a promise , he gave his word which he then
broke by sleeping around. No way would I expect him to keep his word
to me.
I think that goes double for people in our government. It
a man can not rule his own domain. I sure don’t want to trust him to
try ruling mine. The life force finds its way upward to different
levels of spiritual maturity . Balance should be present between the
heart and the head. That gives us hope that it will continue to help
us find a path that leads us back to God
The above is just my opinion. You might want to check out my page on

Say Bye
Bye to "Sci-Fi"
© 3-7-10

|
I have been a fan of written Science Fiction since I was a young
woman. In my mind I would ride dragons with Ann McCaffrey and have
adventures on far distance planets. My night dreams included flights
on space ships as a crew member. I seemed right at home just doing my
routine choirs at the control console. I even invented a space
visitor by the name of Ralph for a story I wrote years ago. Often
sat up at night in Arkansas hoping to catch a sight of the UFO’s
that had been seen in a near by mountain community. No such luck. It
is no wonder that my personal book case has a wide selection of books, by
Isaac Asimov,(9) Arthur Clark,(9) Ann McCaffrey,(15) Sabenhagen,
(4)Stephen Donaldson,(9)and Roger Zelanzny. (5) just to mention a few.
I would guess that is why I am so appalled by the "crap" they
are putting on the Sci. Fi station particularly on Saturday nights. I have
tuned in to other so called Sci. Fi. pictures that were pure horror
stories but this past Saturday night was the worst yet. People who
make these pictures are sick, warped individual and people who watch
them have to be on their way to becoming that way also. There are
enough weird things that happen in this crazy world we live in
without flashing pictures of murder, torture, rape and general mayhem in
to the minds of already warped individuals. The pictures were titled
"Hostel". I watched some of the first picture and saw enough to know
that I did not want to watch the rest of it let alone sit
through a second helping. Tell me what does drilling holes in
peoples head and cutting off their fingers have to do with Sci-Fi.?
Do we need to teach people how to torture helpless women ?
I have had less sewerage in my house when my toilet over flowed.
Yes there was a disclaimer stating this was an adult film. What
kind of adult were they talking about. Nobody that I would want to
meet on a dark street. I can understand why porn is
banned , but
I don’t understand why these violent and sadistic films are put out
over the air-waves to rape peoples minds and souls. I did not stick
around to find out who sponsored these films but in my opinion, we
need to find a way of getting this stuff off the air.

What a glorious history we have in this country
What an absolute beautiful country from "sea to shining sea"
This huge vast domain of un paralleled beauty entrusted to us
Yes we have problems, but with all our problems we are lucky
to live in this land.
What a vision the men and woman who founded the United States
Of America had
.What a miracle it was that they brought together such
a diversity of people
And made them one land and one people united under our beautiful flag
of 'Freedom"
Let us never forget the word "Freedom"
Let us vow that we will always continue to strive for " Freedom"
Political freedom, Economic freedom, Spiritual freedom
First to all our people no matter what the race or creed..
then spread the concept of freedom to every nation and people
on Earth.
