Hey groovy cats and dolls, a couple of things.  Since I’ve been on FACEBOOK a lot and BLOG TALK RADIO with Jay King, AK & Rob Redwine, I’ve neglected this site – but catch up with me on FACEBOOK!  Thanks!

Saw the news where, I think thousands have been killed.  It’s where our President is about to react, was watching Anderson360, Friday night, just before Steve Harvey was the guest on Pierce Morgan’s show.  Does anybody remember Larry King?  What would have been nice for CNN to do, would have been run the BESTS of Larry King over the weekend, they repeat repeat Anderson360 & Pierce – just a thought.

I don’t think we look at people’s lives as if it matters to us.  People protesting overseas, then they are gunned down.  Because we don’t know them personally – is it really happening?  Women and children, too – slaughtered like feasting pigs or cows.  Until it matters to the rest of the world, it’s not going to stop.  I remember in the 60s seeing TV footage somewhere in the world.  If you’re old enough, don’t you?  Is there an end to violence coming?  Yes to those who die, other than that – when it happens over there and it’s addressed, then it happens over here, or that way.  And bodies are just dumped anywhere.  Never gonna end.

Have you been following the Casey Anthony case?  If you were ever in trouble, or one of your precious gems was abducted and murdered, wouldn’t you LOVE LOVE LOVE this kind of coverage?  Do you think they are going to find her guilty and send her to an execution?  She’s not as cute as she was when this all started, she is dressing like she wants to be hung.  But the MEDIA coverage on this – wouldn’t that be phenomenal, if it was at every murder or questionable death?  We wouldn’t have room to watch “I Love Lucy” or “Sanford & Son”, all of it would be cases like this and we would finally get a better shake at justice…….

 

HEY

THANKS FOR SPENDING A LITTLE TIME WITH ME!

GLASS OF MILK ……

One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to

door to pay his way through school, found he had only one

thin dime left, and he was hungry.

 

He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house.

However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman

opened the door.

Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water! . She thought

he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He

drank it so slowly, and then asked, How much do I owe you?”

 

You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has taught

us never to accept pay for a kindness.”

He said … “Then I thank you from my heart.”

As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger

physically, but his faith in God and man was strong also. He

had been ready to give up and quit.

Many year’s later that same young woman became critically

ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the

big city, where they called in specialists to study her rare

disease.

Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he

heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light

filled his eyes.

Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to

her room.

Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He

recognized her at once.

He went back to the consultation room determined to do his

best to save her life. From that day he gave special attention

to her case.

After a long struggle, the battle was won.

Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to

him for approval. He looked at it, then wrote something on the

edge, and the bill was sent to her room. She feared to open it,

for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it

all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on

the side of the bill. She read these words …

“Paid in full with one glass of milk”

(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly.

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed:

“Thank You, God, that Your love has spread broad through

human hearts and hands.”

There’s a saying which goes something like this: Bread cast on

the water comes back to you. The good deed you do today

may benefit you or someone you love at the least expected

time. If you never see the deed again at least you will have

made the world a better place – And, after all, isn’t that what

life is all about?

Now you have two choices.

1. You can send this page on and spread a positive message.

2. Or ignore it and pretend it never touched your heart.

The hardest thing to learn in life is which bridge to cross and

which — To burn …….

This Is Where We Say Goodbye (If I Go)

 

If I Go                               Where Will It Take Me

 

 

If I Stay                              It’d surely Break Me

 

 

We had good times             Let’s just say

 

 

Maybe it’s best                   I walk away

 

 

 

I had sunshine                    For A while

 

 

But lately, baby                   I can’t smile

 

 

I’ve been crying                  there’s no doubt

 

 

Cause of you                      I want out

 

 

 

If I Go                               I won’t be back

 

 

You said that you loved me  It was all just an act

 

 

Sometimes in waiting…               your feelings are strong

 

 

You think you’re loved        But you find out you’re wrong

 

These are additional lyrics, but not in the song –

——————————————————————————————–

If I Go                               No difference it’d make

 

 

If I Stay                              I will break

 

 

You Don’t Treat Me            Like You Should

 

 

Faithful I am                       But you’re no damn good –

 

 

 

This is Where We Say Goodbye…..

 

 

I gave it my all                   In my heart was a yearn

 

 

The lies that you told           Seems you’ll never learn

 

 

This Is Where We Say Goodbye

 

 

You’ve got to promise         not to cry….

 

 

(here’s where a Whistle is done)

 

I’ll never be sane                 If I stay with you

 

 

There’s only one thing         Left for me to do….

 

 

This is where we say goodbye

 

Whistle -  out

 

          A lot of people think my writing is personal, but this doesn’t

 

apply to me.  When things are not working in a relationship, I take a

 

powder – in other words, I exit.  To me, it doesn’t make sense to stay

 

in a situation that is not good to you – but I hear so many stories of

 

how people get sick because they did stay – The only times I have

 

stayed when things weren’t working out, was for my children, and

 

that was tough – but other than that – NO WAY JOSE.

 

 

          I know a lot of women stay with a guy.  If it’s “killing” you,

 

where is the good in that?  I’m not telling you to go, but think about

 

yourself for a change, and see where that will take you.  It is amazing

 

to me to see how many women more than men put up with bullshit,

 

just to have somebody.  If you must engage in sexual activity, there is

 

masturbation.  Until you get the right situation.  No sense in getting a

 

beat down, just so you don’t have to pleasure yourself.  And verbal

 

abuse is almost as bad as physical.  The things we go through for

 

other people, where in the long run, they don’t really appreciate

 

you.  Isn’t that a pity?  Sometimes you need to make yourself happy,

 

even if it means being alone.

 

I like this line, personally, even though I wrote it.

 

Sometimes in waiting…               your feelings are strong

 

 

You think you’re loved        But you find out you’re wrong

    

      All the time you’re in a relationship, you think your love is being

 

appreciated and you are getting the same love in return, but you’re

 

not.  People who verbally smash, and physically abuse, do not love

 

you – they can’t.  How can those people worship plants and cars, and

 

give them the extreme-ist of care, but don’t give you the same

 

courtesy?  Now if you’re a dick (or the female name for that), I can

 

half way understand disenchantment, but if you are fair, and good – I

 

don’t get it. 

 

 

THIS IS WHERE WE SAY GOODBYE……..

 

 

 

 

You understand those certain things, but struggle to accept.

 

 

You try to reason with the sum, but find results inept.

 

 

Your brother dies, your sister robs, you find your mother’s gay

 

 

But no matter what you THINK, there is nothing you can say

 

 

And so we live our lives.

 

 

 

A cousin you were fond of, called to service for the war –

 

 

They give a full report but still you ask, what is this for?

 

 

A pal you felt you trusted turned their back, and did you in.

 

 

It’s funny all the confidence, you find, they’re not your friend.

 

 

But still we live our lives.

 

 

 

We think sometimes too much and get aroused for all the wrong.

 

 

A group of people tell you lies, and string your soul along.

 

 

Do we focus on the good a lot, or do we let it pass us by?

 

 

Have you ever wondered ‘bout some things, or ask the question why?

 

 

And so we live our lives.

 

 

 

You seek for their approval, from your family, friends or work.

 

 

A gunman on the plateau, shoots in open, goes berserk.

 

 

We most certain search for answers, but they seldom come to mind.

 

 

And when found to stray from others, we are often left behind.

 

 

But still we live our lives.

 

 

 

Your wife stays out for days on end, your husband’s gone for weeks

 

–

 

U gamble ‘way your hard earned dough, in hopes for winning

streaks.

 

 

There’s barely food upon the stump, your hunger makes you grip.

 

 

There’s so much you can say right now, but you just bite your lip.

 

 

And so we live, our lives –

 

 

 

You pray to God for good.  But it seems there’s no reply.

 

 

The pains you take, the sadness in your heart does make you cry

 

 

Instead of choosing what is right, you make a choice that’s bad

 

 

And ending of it all, from certain times that you’ve been had – - -

 

 

 

And so…..

 

we die –

          There is a story on the news about a 4-year old little boy, that has been beaten to death.  The story indicates that his stepfather is guilty of it – and his mother recorded the sequence of events on a recording device.

The feature goes on to say that even after his biological father reported that his mother may be a little unstable and the criminal activity on his stepfather’s past were in awareness, this whole thing could have been avoided, if the court/legal system reacted in a manner more protective of the children.

          Get in line in that attack.  Heavy loads of cases dealing with divorce situations and children are extremely high.  Think of all the tragedies that could be avoided if the law stepped in – in a timely professional manner.  How many times has the court failed in securing proper arrangement or parental possession of the children?  Probably more than we care to discuss.  Details of how this boy was beaten and mistreated are unbelieveable, however, things like this are happening around the world.

     I know a lot of people express their concerns and sad commentary, but in the back of my mind, I think that a lot of the media, or people that get interviewed on things like this – are happy that it happens, because it gives them something to blast on………………………
