The answers my friends, is blowing in the wind, as Stevie Wonder, sang !


Ok, March has arrived, and the year is moving forward whether we will as people or not. As to saying anymore about finding a companion or partner in Westborough, it seems to me, there is no sense in doing it anymore. People on the Westborough sites on Facebook, dislike me doing so, so out of respect for their web pages and wishes I won’t go there again.

As to me personally, I have at least my health, a place to live, a roof over my head and food to eat. I have transportation when needed and medical and dental care as needed so I am blessed. Unlike many who are homeless, or without care, I am healthy enough to take care of myself, thank god.

Being a disbabled veteran, who served for 16 years in three branches, I live with certain conditions. I have suffered from Attention Deficet Disorder and Hyper-Activity all my life. Yet I overcame it and carried on and survived. I have PTSD-Post Trumatic Stress Disorder from childhood and military life, yet I have found myself able to carryon and help others when I can. As long as my back injury of six herniated discs from my service time does not lock up with arthritis, or in pain, I will keep going. To see me, no one would think, I am disabled, yet I am. You learn how to deal with injuries and health problems as you age, and overcome the best you can as well as deal with it all.

I have dealt with the deaths of family members due to cancer, from my grandfather, to my father, mother and step-father, and my wife of 28 years. At times finding the loses hard to accept, I stumble along and try hard not to surrender, I have survived lung cancer myself in 2013, while caring for my wife as she was dying. It’s a lot to deal with yes and I sometimes repeat myself, but, I shall not surrender, I am here and alive, live and be peaceful, I say.

Some believe in churches, some believe in faith and some believe in destiny. I believe in something few will understand, I think. What shall be will be of course, and destiny and faith guide us all. I have a belief of being put here on earth for a mission. You see, we are all put here on this planet for a reason, a mission we do not understand, that we really don’t fully understand. But, once we complete that said mission, we get recalled to where we have come from. Thats what I call the mystery of life, we have no idea what we are really put here to do. Nor do we know what act or action, will be our final curtain so to say. So in the end, keep going, try to enjoy each day, each moment, each interaction.

Long ago and far in my past as a child, I used to study mother nature in the woods of my birth town. I would climb trees, catch bees, frogs, turtles, watch birds and other animals. I think many of us grew up that way, in my generation. Playing outdoors was the way to be back then and all of us did it. Be home by suppertime and when the lights go on you better be home. We had bikes, balls, and games we played from One, Two, Three red Light, to Hide and Seek and more, that we invented. Neighborhood baseball games, football games were daily experiences. That was life growing up !

I noticed as I did, the insects in the world also. Ants are a interesting comparrision to humanity in a way and if you look close enough and stop to think of it, live almost the same as we. They scurry on the planet to build homes and communities to survive and all work in one ant family to survive together and multiply. Always scurrying busily along with little regard for other creatures, but their own. When I stop to think of this, I end up thinking how their communities, their way of living and their short span of life, conicides with and equals humanities in many ways. We scurry, we work like they do, we build communities like they do and we reside on this planet like they do. The comparrison in my mind leads me to question something else, are we as humanity like the ants below our feet and is each planet out there that has life , doing the same we are doing ? Do we know enough about the universe and life, to know what it is really all about ? It does lead to wondering doesn’t it?

Yes we are limited in all we do, although some have greater physical abilities or greater mental abilities, we are all human and have our problems and difficulties in life. Some physical, some emotional, and some mentally. Yet, mankind adapts to our surroundings to the point we can and works to change the enviroment we live in to prolong our existance on earth. We have a problem as I see it though, the resources of the planet we live upon are slowly being used up, and at a greater pace than we can afford. we burn and use the planet and it’s resources daily, oil, gas, water, food. Will we be able to replace and replenish any of it, to keep us going, or shall mankind ultimately, cease to exist, because we didn’t work hard enough to replenish and replace what we need to survive ? So many questions abound, when I stop to think of it all, but, the answers my friends, is blowing in the wind, as Stevie Wonder, sang !

Humankind, The Planet/Story


    Thursday has arrived and the 4th, of July is closer now, as well as what may be the first time one of my daughters comes to visit me at my home. I live each day with the knowledge of not doing everything correct in my younger days, but the divorce I went through had nothing to do with me. It was caused by my ex-wife’s family problems that went back to her father and his bullshit he pulled. Anyway, that is another story in and of itself. Sadly, the only one that could recover did and that is me.

    As June of 2013 rolls towards it’s end, the weather here on the east coast has been more like the weather in Seattle, Washington then Connecticut. They say no such thing as Global Warming well someone is full of shit. It does exist, humankind are the only species on the planet that destroys the atmosphere and land resources we have, to live on it. One day we shall destroy both and have nowhere to run to. Mankind is killing itself, as well as the planet, it doesn’t have unlimited resources to burn and give up anymore than a human body does. Someday, Mankind will realize it, and when they do, I think it will be too late.

I see NFL Stars become murders, I see people in panics over stock markets rising and falling and I see health problems ahead for all too. I see job markets thin and barely moving and money so tight it is being squeezed red from the green it was printed with. Sadly America, needs to turn it all around by exporting more, importing less, changing the game plan and getting creative, if not, it could be the end is near for the Great American Civilization in history, and we may go the route of prior ones.

      My Closing today is a link to my story I wrote; This one is a Murder Mystery with a surprise twist ending: The Project Murders, in Broad-View Acres http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D3QZZU8  I hope some will try it!

 

 

Universal Thoughts of LIfe


      As time goes on and on, for the planet and humanity, has anyone actually looked back, and stopped to think, what is really out there in space. The vastness of it, the worlds, the stars, the comets flying by, the suns, so many and different kinds. So it would not be a surprise to me to find there are other beings on other planets rushing to and fro just like us humans to make ends meet and to survive.  Amazingly, we just haven’t found them and they have not found us Earthlings either, the distances be vast, the speed we need huge and the power we would need is currently beyond humanities thoughts and current efforts.

       Before we can think of colonizing another planet, we must figure out how to preserve the one we are currently on. The Atmosphere is polluted with chemicals and residuals from the things we do to survive and manufacture. What is not natural needs to be ceased being done, we destroy our world and the people in it, one by one and then we think of colonizing another world to do the same, it is sad isn’t it? It is indeed mankind’s biggest regret I am sure, that we are stupid enough to destroy the environment we live in and need the most, isn’t it?

        Ray Bradbury who invented Star Trek, all those many years ago now and died and had his ashes flown to space, dreamed of another future for all. He dreamed of exploring space, its planets its ways and beings. He dreamed of flying through the blackness and finding light that all encompass together to survive. God Bless the human mind and it’s creativeness,  it has led mankind to many great things and bettered us all in many ways. yet humanity with all the inventions, innovations, and progress we make, still can not solve, disease, mental illness, improving the world’s life cycle to expand them and much, much more, why? It’s simple and i have said it before to many who ask, all you have to ask is why am I here?

       Each human being, no matter color, race, nationality or anything else is put on this planet to accomplish a certain amount of predetermined missions, we do not even know ourselves. We follow through and call it destiny, fate, preordained or many other things, but is it really only that we are born physical specimens, and the mental aspect is out  of raising and programming by those we were entrusted to? A Great question I think and scientist have been trying hard to figure that one out now since the beginning of life on Earth.

       My suggestion for those who are investigating where we came from is simple. Be careful how you unravel mankind’s existence on Earth, going too much further past mankind’s DNA make-up, could possibly lead to the unraveling of humanity and our demise. It is one thing to look and examine, it is another to tinker and toy with what you do not fully understand!.
