I love my country and despise all that it does lately.

I don't just dislike what we are doing and have done, but actually have grown to despise what we have done and are doing. My government no longer represents any of my values, my beliefs, opinions or dreams for today and tomorrow. The jet bombers are now flying like mad over my city of Tucson, night...

What happens when you are ill....

Many people hear of your illness. They spread the word among friends and acquaintances, they repeat symptoms to each other and bemoan the lack of a diagnosis. Of course, they remember only bits and pieces of symptoms that they heard third and second hand, so it gets quite interesting. I get phone... Sign in to see full entry.

An Apology to my Grandchildren~Their Forests

Dearest Babies Mine, As I drive along our smaller highways and byways and note that all the trees are now of the same 'family' and planted in straight and neat little rows, I pity you. I even start to shed an abuelita's tear for you. A mountainside, planted with the same trees on the same day and in... Sign in to see full entry.

I Believe that this nation is not the one that I was born into

and I want the old one back. Remember when politicians ran on issues and not on personal 'character'? I don't care about their character, I care about their ideas and plans and stands on different issues, I care about their cojones and ability to get legislation through, legislation which makes my...

I Believe that America is losing its beliefs in all things good.

We are all pessimists now and awaiting disasters and horrors and talking about them constantly. Churches on t.v. seem to talk about End Days and frightening things and other shows are all about witch power and shaman power and magical power, etc. Power seeking Americans who feel powerless, more and...

I believe that 25 people sent me that SANDART thing going around in email.

Have you seen it? The power of the internet to spread things, good and bad. I like good things like this. I was jealous that I didn't have something being spread like wildfire around the internet. I have to do something cool like that now.....what can I do?? Artistic and uplifting and worth seeing,... Sign in to see full entry.

I believe that the 60s were a religious experience for me.

I just pulled out all of my old albums and began to listen to them again. Christian or spiritual music, back then, played on regular radio stations and was not labelled 'gospel music' or anything else. All music was mainstream, all music was music to my ears and listened to by just about everyone... Sign in to see full entry.

God Bless America.

Now, is that an order or a request, I’m wondering? Why do I ask this? Well, I know that all other nations are praying the same thing, for their nations, God Bless Mexico, for example. And, if theirs is more of a request than a possible arrogant order, does God move more in their favor, because of... Sign in to see full entry.

When Your Face Hurts, Sing This Song

You know that your anti-depressant, Welbutrin (sp?), is working very well by the signs. The first sign was losing ‘absolutamente’ and overnight, the desire to smoke. I have smoked since the age of 11 and thought this impossible. It is possible. The second sign that it is working is the active sign.... Sign in to see full entry.
