[ That The Time Spent, Was Not A Waste ]

[ I Will Give You Cause ]

[ To Pause ]

[ For A Little Personal Introspection ]

[ Not Persecution ]

[ There Is So Little Time For A Specific Description ]

[ I Definitely Side With The Non-Fiction ]

[ I Try Not To Always Live In Fantasy Land ]

[ Even Though There Is A Little Bit Of Disneyland ]

[ In All Of Us ]

(312)▪︎[ Life Is A Roller Coaster … 2025 ]

[ Do You Ever Look In The Mirror ]
[ Wipe Away The Dust ]
[ So Your Reflection Is Clear? ]
[ Honesty Is A Must ]

[ Do You Wonder, “Who Could That Be?” ]
[ “I Am Not So Sure About Who I See?” ]

[ If You Do Not Recognize Yourself, There Could Be A Problem ]
[ But You Have An Issue ]
[ With Your Thinking Of “Us -vs- Them!” ]
[ You Grab A Tissue ]
[ As Your Mind Goes, “Hmm” ]

[ Why Can’t You Recognize Your Own Shadow? ]
[ The Person You Saw ]
[ You Really Didn’t Know! ]
[ But When You Feel “Blah” ]
[ Your Mind Starts To Go Slow ]

[ Like You Are Trudging Through Thick Butter ]
[ When Your Eyelashes Start The Flutter ]

[ They Are Moving Faster Than A Hummingbird’s Wings ]
[ & Your Mind Starts Thinking About All Kinds Of Things ]
[ Your Thoughts Are Like A Pinball Going Off The Bells That Sound The Dings ]

[ Well Through The Years, You’ve Seen Fire ]
[ & You’ve Seen Rain ]
[ If You Do Not Remember Your Mistakes From The Years Prior ]
[ You Will Probably Make Them Again ]

[ You Can Make Mistakes All Day Long ]
[ If You Show That Your Resolve Is Not Strong ]
[ How Will You Get Any Personal Growth ]
[ Whenever You Are Proven Wrong? ]

[ No One Says That You Do Not Always Have To Be Right ]
[ Just Like The Sun Does Not Always Need To Be Bright ]
[ But When Things Are Going Well ]
[ That Can Be An Incredible Sight ]

(001)▪︎[ Modern Society … 2025 ]

What would you change about modern society?

[ I Feel The ‘VID’19 Was The Worst Thing To Happen To Our Society As A Whole ]

[ Nobody Trusts Anyone ]

[ We Are A Very Fractured Society ]

[ People Grouping & Labeling Others ]

[ By Gender, Sexual Preference, Race, Heritage, Politics, Religious Beliefs … ]

[ To Some, We Are No Longer Male Or Female Because They Want That Line Blurred. Like Washing Away The Line That Was Drawn In The Sand. ]

[ People Labeling You A Republican Or A Democrat. That Is NOT What People Are, That Is The Political Party That They Vote For ]

[ Everyone Wants To Be An Individual, On An Island. No Longer Part Of Anything. People Marking “Other” On Forms ]

[ But Then Wanting To Be Treated As An Equal, But Then Equal To Who. People Want To Be So Different Than Others, Then They Don’t ]

(443)▪︎[ Change The Picture … 5/26/2021 ]

[ When There Has Been A Tragic Incident ]
[ Change The Picture ]
[ By Thinking Everything Was An Accident ]

[ With No Malice Involved ]
[ Even Though The Problem Has Not Been Solved ] 

[ Look Left, Then Right ]
[ Always Walk Towards The Black Light ]

[ Sometimes Black Lights Distort ]
[ They Are Never Used While Watching Sports ]

[ How Does One Change The Perception? ]
[ There Have Been Tragedies Since Man’s Conception ]

[ Fade To Black ]

(001)▪︎[ What Foods? … 2025 ]

What foods would you like to make?

[ I Love Making Meatloaf With My Wife ]

[ I Am A Good Single Person Cook. I Like To Experiment With Food As Long As I Am Going To Be The Only One Eating What I Have Made ]

[ The Reason? I Don’t Want To Make Anybody Else Sick! ]

[ I Like To Add A Pinch Of “This” & Alot More Of “That” ]

[ If I Make Myself Sick Then I Hope That I Remember The Feeling Next Time I Want To Cook Whatever Made Me Sick ]

[ My Beautiful Wife Is An Awesome Cook & I Love Most Everything She Makes! I Think I’ve Asked Her About (3) Times To Not Make A Specific Food Again. I Am Just Thankful After Almost (30) Years Of Marriage She Still Cooks For Me! ]

[ I Love To Bake ]
