Weeds in The Flower Beds!

Joyous
Monday Morning
To YOU
Sending you
Tulips and Redbuds this morning
and
a morning
to
DANCE ON THE DESKS
and the tables
and
wherever you might be!

Oh it's a morning of fun here
now that I'm over the letter I opened after my latest trip to the cold of Nebraska and Iowa!
Of course while there I was told that 29 degrees is not really what one calls cold out there, as they are having a very mild time of January!!!
Love it!
One persons perception is not always the reality
of others...
Speaking of reality
and
speaking of letters
and
speaking of joyous
...
AND
speaking of the title of todays
thoughts
...
Bear with me
it will all come together I'm sure
well
maybe not
for all, after all
perception is often the lens in which we see things
and
I am convinced that some see things
just through a very strange lens!
I opened a letter from a place
called
"INTEGRITY MANAGEMENT"
once home from my trip this weekend.
They are the folks
who are in charge of writing the letters from the
home owners association
also known
as the folks that have nothing to do other than
get in the business of others here in our neighborhood.
You know the ones
the association that you pay enormous amount of money to each year to keep the neighborhood "nice"
whatever that means.
I suspect the huge check that gets written keeps the
grounds mowed
however you still need to mow your own yard
and powerwash your sidewalk and driveway
but
I still haven't figured out what they do with the check that gets sent out each year.
Other than perhaps have a group of people walk through the neighborhood and then compile a useless letter of
the likes that I received
and
then promply
"went off" after reading it!
So,
I receive this letter from a place called
INTEGRITY
which tells me
I am in "violation"
and tells me
*paint or clean your mailbox
*CLEAN THE WEEDS FROM YOUR FLOWER BEDS
*trash bags are in front of your house
><
Please take care of these things as you are in violation!!!
I re read it
and
then I felt cold chills go off in my brain.
ARE YOU FOR REAL?
...
oH HEAVENS not the mailbox?
They are concerned about the mailbox being cleaned or painted?
The very same mailbox that resembles so many within our community that have been the victims of punks that live in the neighborhood who get their thrills by beating them with baseball bats?
Surely they should have been sitting up little hideouts to catch these kids rather than walking the neighborhood on a sunny day writing notes on those of us who have been the victims of their teens who are the ones doing the deeds?
><
Maybe the money we shell out each year can go into a fund to replace the posts!!!
Now there is a plan whose time has come!
><
Weeds in the flower beds?
In January when the beautiful flowers are not in bloom?
Can you even imagine such a terrible thing?
And to put it in a letter of "violation"
Those suburbanites!!!
Go figure.
What if it is really a "weed garden" and a stray flower was put there by an over zealous bird?
The Creator doesn't make us get rid of folks who are less than perfect, yet they are saying I have to exterminate my less than perfect growings of the Creator?
What in the world has the association now deemed itself able o do here?
Have they lost their ever lovin mind?
If it is so very offensive to them, perhaps they should not come onto MY property, up my sidewalk and gaze into my
flower/weed garden
and
then write their notes
and
send
Integrity a letter, only then to have
Integrity send me a letter of violation.
Ah, I think I am beginning to see where my yearly association monies are going to ...
><
Trash bags in front of my house?
Well
How bout' being a good neighbor and taking them to the curb
after all the trash runs on Monday
and
those bags were filled with yard clippings from the over grown bushes and
freaking WEEDS
...
They were sitting there from the yard work of the weekend
waiting to go to the curb.
YOU IDIOTS!!!

Perhaps they just need to
DANCE
or
to not be so wooly in their attempts at
being
BULLIES!
.,.
It may behoove you to take care of your OWN yards
and
your own business
and
stay out of those of your neighbors.
...
I understand fully why people do not like living in
deed restricted home own association neighborhoods.
Hell I didn't know what one was
UNTIL I MOVED HERE!
Of course
mine was not the only letter opened this week or over the weekend...
Sandy and Stu next door
the home of the fire?
Well they were raked over coals over their roof
still not repaired.
BUT no neighbor bothered to ask about the progress
the damages
that continue to be repaired.
The roof
"offended" them that it is not perfect.
They have been working their fingers and backs and spirits to the bone to restore within so that they can lay down at night in the idea of being back in their home safely.
I really doubt that they go outside at night and gaze up at the roof look to be reminded of what has been.
They are well aware of what has yet to be done!
...
I can only imagine that they joined me with a
"voice mail" message
of
INTEGRITY
to
INTEGRITY
...
I can imagine that they also had a good time
wadding that paper up
and throwing it in the trash when finished!
>>><<<
As for my
"weeds"
I plan on letting them be for now,
they are doing just fine where they are
and
it just might be that they are protecting some lovely things that are trying to grow
and for that matter they may just grow themselves
into what I think is lovely!
...
The mailbox holds mail
and
does it need cleaning?
Probably... it's on the list.
I see no trash bags, and if the village who is filled with idiots would have thought before they lept,
they would have saved their ink
knowing the trash was running the next day!
OR
they could have been a good neighbor
and
taken it to the curb.
BUT
then again,
the "patrol of those who want to judge"
probably do not reach out to care, nor to help
it's not in their DNA.
The moral of the
story?
Let weeds be weeds
and
let others do what they do
as long as it does not harm you!
If you see where you may lend a hand
imagine how good that will feel not only to you
but
to another!
Aren't those tulips just lovely
and
what a great day to
REJOICE
to
be
JOYOUS
and
to
STAND WITH INTEGRITY
...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
TO
STEPHANIE
aka
"TWEAK"
Here's to all your wildest dreams dear and
your best realities!
Celebrate the wonder of you today!
><

To the Korabek's; Susan and Greg
I am thinking of you today
as it is the day
you gave birth to a little boy
named
Landon
...
He is 19 as you sit today and celebrate his birth
and will remember him
and wonder how today would have been
had he been with you
you will wonder
you will share a tear
a time of reflection
of profound sadness
of what could have been
and
you will wonder
and
then
you will
have to think
what is happening as he plays the guitar in
spirit-land
and
trips the chords in the Next Place
with wild abandon
and
unconditional love with the
Creator
and so many who have gone before him
and now probably jams with the late and great
Etta James...
ONE LOVE
take best care of each other
and know you are being held in the arms
of him
and
those who care deeply!
CELEBRATE THE WONDERS OF HIS LIFE
not the moment
that he left this side of life!

The sun is shining brightly
and
the sage is lit
for healing ways
beautiful moments
and
choices to be made mindfully
as
we step into the ending of January
with
ONE LOVE
...

I am wishing you a day
that is
filled with the magic of
YOU!

Take best care friends
and
celebrate all that surrounds you in this wonderful thing we know as life;
and if you are stretching to find a reason?
Celebrate the birthdays and memories of those mentioned today!
Get out there and
PLAY!

Don't Like IT?


Just saying
If
YOU don't like something
then
DON'T DO IT
><
It's really not complicated is it!

Good morning Saturday
Good Afternoon Saturday
Good evening Saturday

Well now that we've accomplished that

HOW IN THE WORLD ARE YA?

I saw that sign and just thought to myself
well now that about
says it better than
I ever could!

I am home from a great trip to
NEBRASKA and IOWA
where I was just pleased as pleased could be
to meet some lovely folks!

The days got much better
as
those seats and tables were filled with people
and
with their energies
as we spent time together!
I was grateful for my
"cuddle duds"
cos ohhh boy was it chilly out there in the
WEST!
><
I've had a lot of folks stop by and read my thoughts on
"The Words of Some Are Brilliant"

I guess that is a good thing!
It is interesting as many times folks don't need to comment
on a thought but you know they are reading
and
from reading thoughts are processed
and
shared!
I've been told that many not always like the truth
and sometimes the truth is painful
as
we all plug in and tune in and share thoughts and opinions
that then go out into cyber space
never again to be retrieved.
Sometimes tempers run amuck in the world of computers
and the energy gets out there
in jagged ways
and
grudges get held
when
if we sit and think about it we realize we don't even know what got us all jacked up in the first place
nor do we really even know if the person we were upset is
really the person we thought they were at all!
That is the funniest part of it
when you peel the onion and truly get to the core;
I've realized that on the magic of
Facebook many many people have
"fake identities"
or many many aliases!
You may be thinking all along you know someone
only to find out months or a year later
that the view and opinions
expressed are not even the person you
came to call a pal or even a friend!
WOW
that is amazing isn't it?
Some have told me that they have invested
time, tears, laughter
and
then came to find out
they the person or persons they did all this
was
someone they would not break bread with
and
did not resemble anything like the person
they thought they had known!
Learning a lot to late
at times
takes us aback.
Judgments and fears and fights and ugliness
all that could have been avoided
had
we been mindful
had
we been kind
had
we remembered the "golden rule"
of how we live our lives.
This takes me back to the picture above
...
It really is quite simple.
We have men and women and service dogs
FIGHTING FOR OUR VERY FREEDOMS
laying it all down
and
we in turn lay down in our warm beds at night,
enjoy our TV
our
internet
our
cell phones
our
homes.
...
We are free because of the BRAVE
WE
have choices with each breath we take.
I do not remember
that anyone
all of a sudden
decided we were
the one
to
JUDGE anyone
...
But
I do know this;
we all walk in our own foot steps
we ALL
walk our own path,
and
have our own heart beat.
IF you have a beef with someone,
it's time to settle it or walk away from it.
What is the point
of
folks making others feel bad
wishing them ill
sending them messages of ridiculous
judgment and accusations
when
kindness and understanding and gentleness
will get you to heaven a whole lot easier
someday
and
living here right here right now
will be a whole lot more fun
and
make you feel a whole lot better
physically, emotionally, spiritually!~!!

So,
If you
DON'T LIKE IT

DON'T DO IT

Is the message of the day!

Thanks to all in Nebraska and Iowa
for a great tour
and
to those of Frontier Airlines
it was a hoot
and a great flight!
For my pal in the front isle seat on Frontier last night
I enjoyed you immensely
thanks for the laughs
and
indeed
the Village was missing one of its own!!!
Be safe out there sir, you are a joy!

The Words of Some are Brilliant!

D'Vante said
"IT WAS THE BEST GIFT EVER"

Oh the wonders of computers,
of
IPODS
IPADS
of
Cell phones
of
Smart phones
of
being
"connected"
of
"signing on"
and
"FACEBOOK"
and
the
"greatness of keyboards"
and
"tuning in"
and
"turning on"
and
"staying connected"
and
"being glued to the screen"
anytime
and
any day
and
having virtual friends
and
feeling
"CONNECTED"
...
The power of being
"anonymous"
and
"powerful"
hidden behind a screen
with identities that are just over the top!
...
We are now just hooked to technology
many are addicted
and
it is never more apparent
than at airports
on planes
and
even at restaurants
where you see people unable to set those phones down
to hold conversations the
"old fashion way"
...
When flying home from Central PA
I was amazed at the number of conversations I was privvy to
including how to get into a business computer
*had I had a pencil and paper*
as a gentleman told his colleague by cellphone
how to get into the computer to access a customer account!
I was amazed at the
number of conversations
as we were waiting to
"take off"
wondering how many of those calls
could have waited
how many could have taken the time
to close their eyes
and
just unwind
perhaps even think about their day,
count their blessings
perhaps
even just
RELAX
into the moment
or
people watch even!
After all it is rather amazing
if you just watch the folks boarding
with their many and assorted overstuff bags
as they make their way down the isle in search of their seat
carrying bags that are
stuffed
with all manner of things
and a cup
of
Starbuckes gripped in their teeth!
Hoping beyond hope that they dont lose their grip and spill it as they pass you by!
Why you ask is the coffee in their teeth by the rim of the cup?
Well of course they don't have the extra hand
cos' that is busy holding
the
CELL PHONE
while the other hand
grips the bag holding the kitchen sink and their clothes!
Then they have to get angry that it doesn't fit
in the overhead
where
of course there is  no room
for what appears to be
a
body bag
that they just had to bring on board with them!
BUT
once they are seated
oh my!
The phones are blowing up,
the
Facebook updates are being made
and
here we go...
It takes the flight attendents to hit the isle and tell folks
to
power down,
it takes the overhead reminders
to turn everything
OFF.
And
we are a Nation of those who can hardly stand
it.
We are
handcuffed to the internet
the
phones
and
a beautiful woman has written a piece about it
on her blog
that really nails it all!
I am goin to share it with you here today
by providing the link to her blog
I think you will find it worthy of
sharing with those you know
perhaps you will even print it out
and
sharing it at your workplace
or
suggesting it to a magazine,
or
putting it on the pages of your own
Facebook wall!
It is profound, it is filled with truth
and
it addresses a problem
that truly is
authentic!
Folks are just taking this internet thing to extremes.
I witnessed this myself over the last year on the
Lily The Black Bear page,
and
I must admit,
I too got caught in its web of what I realized after awhile was filled with deceit, manipulation and lack of integrity there.
A page that seemed pure in its intent of
research and care of the
North American Black Bears
and
a den cam that I became rather addicted to watching;
one that took up too much of my time quite frankly!
At times I had friends tell me I was losing my mind
as I watched with complete awe a bear give birth in her den!
A dear friend looked on and then looked at me rather astonished and remarked,
"Well I am now worried about you ... this is about as exciting as watching paint dry... what are YOU DOING?"
...
And then it happened, I watched grown adults on the Lily page turn on each other; I watched them assign human emotions to wild Bears, dress them in costumes and celebrate with virtual parties, as they became addicted to bears in the wild, as they had fundraisers and took food from their own tables donated like crazy to a man who did research on these animals!
I observed people from other states and communites forsake their own neighborhoods to contribute to a little town and its school systems raising monies for their town
on behalf of North American BlacI Bears that live in the woods
and last I checked those bears do not go to school, don't need the very things that folks were raising money for in a little community that was not the one those fans lived in!

Oh my, I heard the stories of folks not cleaning their homes nor fixing dinner for their familes nor wanting to go about their lives because they were "captivated by the internet and the pages of Faecebook and the man who asked for donations on the bear pages"!  Many were caught up in the throes of grief, in the idea of sending "long johns, mittens, food and such things to a reseracher who has chosen to walk with bears in the cold weather of the North cold lands of the forest" I can't help but to believe that this man can well afford to purchase his own mittens and long johns after the many years he has walked in the cold weather there...
Bears will be bears without human interference, and perhaps they will live longer without the scent of man?
I watched with horror as people showed the worst side of humanity and acted with such meaness and actual threats, and even those threats to include wishes that others would die extended to each other while idolizing researchers who began to show less than integrity and honesty in their dealings with bears and humans alike.
We are talking grown, middle aged women and men here!
NOT LITTLE OR SCHOOL AGED HORMONE RAGING TEENS HERE!!!
People who should know better!
What appeared to start out as an effort to educate and bring people from all over the globe together in a caring community
about and for the
North American Black Bears
appeared to have become
a page of people
out to
destroy each other
and
to take
and
to allow others to be bullied, stomped and trampled along the way
while people lost their kindness and compassion
for each other
along with their money and their pride and their honesty
in day to day caring.
I have often stated that page was a marvelous study in
human behavior for anyone doing their dissertation
for a Phd in human behavior.
The schools are adopting a
zero tolerance for bullying,
children are committing suicide as a result of bullying
as parents wonder why, as they lay awake at night and think of ways to stop such irresponsible acts.
And
here in this day and age
we witness bullying by adults on the internet,
we see and witness adults doing these things and claim it is a result of stress over their love of their "cause"
as a result of their "passion"
as a part of their desire
to be involved
and
I watched it from grown women who one day are stating they are "good Christians" and are praying for the North American Black Bears
and in the next tyings they are making death threats to hunters and to the moderators of the Lily Bear Facebook site or to others who post there because they don't like a comment or a thought of another...
Some admit that they hit the enter button too quickly
while others then say
they guess they were a little stressed!
Let's face it...
people just have gone over the edge of responsiblity and accountability of their behaviors in many cases.
Many will pray for bears while threatening their fellow wo/man
and doing harm on their way to church
on those pages
and
that just boggles the mind of the sane.
It seems to me that many are just wired a bit too tightly
while still others are just plain out needing to unplug the connection to the great internet
and
step back and reevaluate
their priorites!
Life is more than that great phone or computer
or the
idea of sitting behind a screen
and pretending to be
OZ
for all the wrong reasons.

With that said today
haha
as I sit at this computer
and
gaze upon the screen here,
I will now share this wonderful blog
and
hope you will subscibe!
"WORK THE DREAM" is a blog worthy of reading daily
as it is just filled with wonderment
by a gifted writer.
Please comment back here after reading and let me know your thoughts,

I think you will join me in applauding the
authenticity of the writer and her words here!
Bravo!!!
It's a beautiful day in Florida today
and
in the morning
I will be in cuddle duds headed west
to the cold lands of Nebraska and Iowa!!!

Blessings to all who gather,
and
to all those who are wrapped in the throes of this internet
and
get "hooked into the ugliness part... STAND UP, shake it off and remember who you are" Kindness is never out of style, it's time to ask for forgiveness to those you have wounded when you were too absorbed to see the error of your ways, and get back to the compassion of your passion.


FOR:
Patricia, Bob, Deb, Jack, Tweak, Onesie, Jenn, Brian, Nurses at Geisinger, Fawn, Adry, Eileen, Jaz,

Safe journey to
