Lets see......where to begin.....
A lot has happened in 7 years, some good times, some mediocre times, and a considerable amount of stressful bad times.
I'm not really sure why I gave up writing (a lot of it probably because of buying a new home, finally going back to school and getting myself a degree long over due, job transitions, kids and their schooling/college, wife going back to work, family health issues, plus my hair going grey...).
Sounds like I was busy....but now....its time to get back to the matter at hand......
Yes....the world still sucks....
Economies in trouble......wars and rumors of wars.....disease and famine....technology getting out of control......human beings who have for the most part become.......lost.....
We are more or less fed by media outlets and social media a message that "I'm okay, you're okay, and everything will turn out fine in the end." (the latter part is correct, the previous part is not.)
We are not okay.
We are in trouble....in one way or another. Each of us has one course of action to take to get out of this trouble....but it's the step we as individuals refuse to take.......because we think we are "okay".
How do we define what is "okay?" Where do we base this idea on? What we were taught in school, the friends and family around us, the activities we might do, what goes on in the workplace, justifying our personal choices, justifying our thoughts, justifying our feelings, justifying our emotions?
If this is all "okay"......then what justifies when it is all over with? What happens when get sick and there is no chance of recovery, get cancer, meeting the end of one's lives because someone else thinks its just "okay" to end it, the forces of nature that at any moment can bring and end to it all for each and every one of us?
Some would say that this is all just "okay"....its just the way things are and have always been....in the end you'll be "okay"...
Sounds like a lot of fun so far isn't?
It's "okay"...we have some time left to discuss.....I hope.....if I what I ate tonight agrees with me....that I didn't take in too much radiation today, I don't make anyone mad at me driving tomorrow, and by chance I don't experience the freak tornado that just happens to occur.....
Feel free to share this anywhere if you have been invited to read it.....it's "okay too"....
Much more on the the way.....
