September 30th 2014 is here folks, which means the Fall is coming and the cold here in New England too. Yes I know too many don’t want to hear it, but tomorrow is indeed October 1st, 2014. Which bring the dreaded winter closer and the fun of summer further away. The kids are back in school, the stores are starting Holiday Sales, and in the end we are closer to the election cycle than ever before. As my dad once told me the clock stops for no one folks, no matter is you live or die!

October brings to me questions regarding politics and the United States future, whose hands will America put itself in? Good Question right folks? Will the Republicans who have stymied the government stay in power in the House? Will we allow republicans to control both the Senate and The House and oppose any movement forward by the country, any longer? You tell me folks, because as I see it now America is faltering on the brink and the Republicans are responsible. They have held back every attempt to improve the country in the house and John Boehner, is their leader in the blocking brigade, Mr. Boehner believes he is doing right when in fact he is screwing the country. Representative Boehner The House Leader has to go, for he is determined to stop any progress until he gets a Republican President, and that is not happening. He pouts, he filibusters, grumbles and refuses to move on any area of importance to the American People. We need help in the economy, jobs,health care, yes Obamacare can be improved, and should not be dismantled it has helped millions. So why is Mr. Boehner so set in his ways, simple, he is like a spoiled child who can’t have it any other way but his own. Mr. Boehner this is America, we are a republic, and a democracy not a John Boehner World Amusement Park, wake the hell up or get out of office. Americans should remove Mr. Boehner from his post as majority Leader and Leader of the House, and remove him from office for lack of action, and bad choices. he is not helping the American people, he is hurting us all, with his lack of action program.

As the year progresses, 2014 is now becoming critical to the country in a couple of ways. 1) Politics and who will lead this country is coming up in November and we need changes now! A divided Congress where the Democrats control the Senate and Republicans the house does not work folks. What is happening is simple, for instance here is a bill put forward by democrats, nope so the Republicans, then here is one put forward by republicans, nope say the democrats sad isn’t it, so the country stagnates due to it all. Why, do we as the American People have to put up with this shit, we don’t folks, vote and change the status of the House and Congress in general, one party or the other but vote and lets do it. If a democrat is gonna win in 2016 for President, then lets help him or her with a rebuilt Congress. Lets not let this stagnation, and arguing continue to hurt us all.

Someone forgot that Americans don’t want wars anymore and, now we have become a policing nation for other nations what the hell for? I believe we must fight Isis no doubt there, I agree. But, lets get the hell out of Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan please. Lets pull our people back, and take our weapons with us too, don’t leave them behind. I will say this once again folks, we failed to police Korea, we failed to police Vietnam. we created numerous Disabled Veterans and lost millions of lives, lets stop doing this shit. If Korea wants to me communist let them, same with Vietnam, Iraq,Iran and Afghanistan, I don’t care, let them mind their own and not attack the world and we will mind our own here. we can not afford to keep trying to police a world that does not want us there, we should stop and reevaluate period. for a continue policing of the world is weakening american in stature, prestige and honor in the world’s eyes, both home and abroad!

If the politicians who run America want to work on something, work on the American Economy, work on improving Healthcare, Medicare, Medicaid, Education, and The Veterans. Work on whats needs done here to strengthen the country we live in, not someone else’s. Wake the Hell UP!

As we go forward toward the 2016 Presidential Election, which is sure to start soon enough, as all the Candidates line up in each party now, we must make intelligent choices, we must make choices that will move America forward and keep us in peace, yet improve our Economy, Education,Jobs and Health Care. we must attack the problems at home before we solve the world’s problems for them, we can lead yes, we just can’t give all and police everyone at once.We need a Leader who can take charge, who can direct us in the direction of improving America and caring for it first and foremost. We need a leader not afraid to rebuild Manufacturing, not Afraid to improve Obama Care, not afraid to say the Veteran’s Hospitals need more more and people to care for our Veterans. we We need a leader who believes in discipline, and strength and honor one who can stand tall and face other Leaders as a Leader and Partner. We need a President folks who has political knowledge, ideas to improve the country and a backbone to defend it and plans to do it all in four years time. My belief is we need Hillary Rodham Clinton as President and a First man for a change, with knowledge and advise for his wife, we get two for one if we get Hillary, lets do it folks, get Hillary to Run and get her Elected President!

 The weekend is getting ready to begin folks, it is Friday! I hope all had a great week at work and home and got done what they needed done! Life will go on no matter what folks believe me, I know, I have heard it all before, and was told it by a special man in my life, years ago, before he died! 

Yes, as my Step-father laid on a hospital bed dying of cancer, he spoke to me, his words were clear concise and he knew what he was saying. He said the following to me: Son, don’t cry for me, don’t let life go by, don’t waste time. I know when I die you will cry, you will grieve for me, but, I want you to carry on!  Be the best you can be son, and remember long after I am gone, the world will continue to spin, the clocks will still tick and life will go on.  Minutes will turn to hours, hours to days and days to weeks and, months and finally years. You will overcome your grief, and move on and so will the world, just remember me and that I loved ya! He then turned his head and vomited  all over the place and died! I remember Dad I do, so I moved on and so has life and time as you said, now I am almost your age when you died and moms too and soon, who knows I may come see you again. Lets hope for the best, I will live to be the best and do as ya said, waste no time and do my thing, make my mark. I owe you that much Dad for raising me, for clothing me, housing me, feeding me and so much more, Love Your Son!

     September rolls on for 2014, a year I never figured on living to but I have.  Each day brings a mystery to how i survive and why, but here I be. So while I am still kicking lets talk about, premonitions. I have had them all my life so to say, when I was a small child, I saw things coming and avoided them,. I would dream of something happening and wake up upset, and it would stick with me all day and when I ran across anything the looked like the dream I would avoid it and walk away. It worked for I am still here and I have avoided the worse things I ever dreamed of.

Premonitions, took me to school, away from drugs, towards arts and writing, towards lovers and away from enemies. They gave me direction, like joining the service, marrying whom I did and divorcing one I did too. I knew so many things were coming do to dreams I had and remembered and that included births of my daughters and much more. Life is not always a question mark for me, sometimes I just go toward what I have seen in my dreams and it keeps me going and gives me hope and much more. It is not always that way and I find when that is so, bad things will catch up to me, like old enemies or a lose will happen. But then it is usually because I choose to ignore what my dreams told me, funny how that works.

As we all know I write little stories, blogs and poems, for I try to sell them and get people to read them every chance I can. I made many into little books on Amazon’s Kindle E-Book Publishing, where my wife took and published them. I was amazed that people would ever read them, never mind pay for them, but some did. My only problem in this field is what to write about next to produce more, for I took many stories from my life and did them up. I made some up like my murder mystery books so I am capable of that too. The only question is what the public is reading these days, and what kind of stories they would like period. Ya never know what people really like do you?

I want to thank television and the Networks for starting the Fall Season too, new shows and returning ones are alway interesting and fun. But I think instead of a 13 week season it should be expanded to twice as much, that way it lasts longer and more to see what happens in favorite shows and with the characters. But that’s me, certain shows I love and will watch all the time, NCIS, Castle,The Voice are some I love, Scandal,Chicago Fire and PD are a few others. Then when all else fails me for a program to watch I find the History Channel, Discovery, Fox and Sci-Fi to fill the gaps. All good programming and more, but I am now getting into Public Television these days and CPTV comes to mind. They always  have something interesting to watch and it’s educational or pure entertaining.

     The first day of Fall has arrived folks, and a chill hits the air and the muggy air still sits on top of us. But the year proceeds along as usual doesn’t it, time waits for no one that is for sure! The past is dead and gone they say, but the truth is every moment in ones past is what is built upon to live the future your going to.  All we were taught when young carries us forward in life and we used these past experiences and lessons to make decisions in our current day-to-day lives. We build upon each experience we had in the past and use the results to make the choices we do for today and the lives we live.

You hear people mention it all the time without realizing it, like whew glad I didn’t do that one, did it before and know what that  is like, and phrases like that. The miracle is no one realizes it consciously, nor do you pay attention to the fact you’re doing it, you just do, funny huh? It’s called automatic responses, and we are all programmed with them, someone sneezes, God Bless ya comes out, someone is sick, we all react the same, we are sorry, hope ya feel better, auto-responses, these days for sure. Nothing wrong with them, just no one stops to notice!

We breath on automatic response, our hearts beat on automatic response, our body moves on auto response during our sleep. So what do we really control, our education, our choices in life are which direction we go in and how we handle the pressures that life can put upon us, and how we choose to do so, also controls what we do for a living and who we pair up with in life, as well as friends we have. We don’t choose our parents, some who mistreat us and beat us, swear at us and not care for us, yet we deal with all they do to us and with us to survive and we run from home if we have to survive. As children we are more resilient and flexible than adults and we do get fed up and ultimately fight back, and leave to form our own relationships and carry on.Amazing isn’t it when ya stop to think about it!

All a thought I had this morning, as I looked back on the lives of my own siblings and I. we all suffered abuse up and until the death of our parents in one way or another, yet each of us became different in our own ways. My elder brother was a sports hero who ran, and played and escaped home and the family through that avenue. He is now an introvert, who has been married twice, and had twos ons, one who is dead now and he runs and hides from most to survive. I am different, I am the extrovert, the one who will talk up, the one who gives advice, the one who helps other to a fault, married twice also, I have two daughters, who’s mother took them from me years ago, in her own way, turning them on me. I fought back and refused to give in and told the truth ultimately they understood and we can now talk and get along. Amazing huh? My Younger brother the 3rd one grew up fighting for attention from his parents and all around him. He fought back against his violent father and his mother who didn’t belong being a mom. In the end he rebelled so well, he wiped his father out, fought him and got thrown out of the house. He went on to become a con-man, and a drug user and died ultimately  at 30 years in California and got himself buried under a name not his own, to hide. My sister was protected by her father as a child and growing up, and mom hated that. So mom mistreated her by never showing her love or caring and rejecting her in the end when mom died and handed her rings to a stranger. Sad ya ask me, really. The baby boy is a stranger to all of us these days, he’s been married twice, I don’t know if he has any children and I haven’t seen him since 1994. He is an artist, a gamer, a worker for sure, but he is also a man with a problem of mistrust and lack of showing emotion. so of five of us, no one came out perfect, did we?

I said this before and I will say it once more here, we are born to what ever parents we have at the time, and we cannot choose our parents. we learn from them, we become them in many ways and reject some of their ways as we grow up and form our own selves. we didn’t ask for the parents we had, yet we survive them normally, and make our own choices based on our own reactions, and morals and ethics as we grow up. Choices in the end make us the men or women we are today in the world and past family experiences. In The end what we find out as we grow older and deal with it all is this, we were all put on this planet to complete some mission the Lord sent us here to do, we know not what it really is, but we survive until we reach and complete it and then we return to from which we came.
