Things are weird. Times are weird. People are weird. All of these things make me weird. Weirdness is the thing these days. Pick a topic and I’ll guarantee you there will be something weird about it, religiously, politically, socially, anything-ally.

Lost in a funk that has lasted more than a few days I found myself screaming because of life itself.

Me, on life.

I have the tools and resources to pull myself out of such a funk; therefore, I sometimes dwell in the darkness for a while, to see if there’s anything useful I can find. You see, darkness has many answers.

I’m not going to tell you the answers I’ve found, nor am I going to share my tools and resources. All of those things are for you to discover, uncover, and perhaps even recover. For I believe the weirdness of life must be sorted out by each person individually. However, there are a few things I’d like to share…

Respect, honor, and care for your elders
Never compare yourself to others
Just because the world has seemingly gone mad doesn’t mean you have to
Vote on November 8, but only if you’ve been objectively informed

Doom, gloom, and weirdness don’t have to stop you in your tracks. Decide to be happy and you will be.

Kind of scary, but happy nevertheless.

My Favorite Time Of Year

October 21, 2016 by Sara

Greetings from the very colorful Midwest, USA.

This is my favorite time of year. In fact, October is my favorite month, which is why Husby and I chose October as the time to be united in wedded bliss. I donned a long-sleeved, brocade gown and it was unseasonably warm on our wedding day. I was very beautiful despite my sweatiness. You never know what October can bring.

One thing I can count on in October is color. The landscape in October is always colorful, maybe earlier in the month, maybe later, but the explosion is guaranteed. I’m sad for anyone who hasn’t seen it firsthand. What a feast for the eyes…
