ummmm

....... been awhile since I've posted anything ....... and since then my Dad has past away , and I haven't seen my Mom in about 6 weeks ( her choice ) , I have had a lot of time to think , about myself and this world we live in .
About this world I'm not sure , so many things going on , so many changes , there is always something new to think about .
About myself , I'd just as soon go to a mountain top or a desert and just sit and wonder what is going on in the rest of the world . Sometimes it's just so difficult to think , so much noise .
In my family life , things are different . My youngest daughter has moved out and has a place of her own " sort'a " . My oldest son is a senior in college still living at home . My youngest son is a freshman in college .
That's it for now .

medicine or Bull Hockey ?

.. I've been looking a lot lately at medical web sites ,just to do some research , cause as of right now both my Mom and Dad are in transitional care units ( different ones ) , and 2 of my sisters are in poor health as well . My bitch ( not the female dog ) is the price just to stay alive ! This is terrible , even vitamins are out of site . Why are so many people that say they want to help so greedy ? What about love your fellow man ( or woman ) ? Why is it so hard to give a little time , a little love , to help someone ? Didn't Jesus say that we should give even our enemy's a cup of water ?
To all you care giver's out there I admire you . Give out of a pure heart . And when you burn out or just need a rest take it . How can someone help someone else if they are to tried to do so ?

..... long time .......

..... long time since I've written anything , over a year , things are still pretty much the same , family , work , church , work , work , you get the idea . I have started Tai-Chi classes though , this lat January , so it's been about 10 months . Doing good there , acording to my teacher , hope to stay in it for a long time , hopefully the rest of my life . It as helped me with my balance , and calmed by thought's some what . I have to keep my mind on what I'm doing .
done for now ,
......... this is actually a day later , I thought I'd add a web site about Taoist Tai-Chi , someone might be interested in checking for classes near to you ....
www.taoist.org
done again ,

new post

.......... has it been over a month ?
......... lots been going on to . Started Tai-Chi lessons about 4 weeks ago , meeting once a week for 2 hours , it's somthing I've been wanting to do for a long , long time , but the price per -lesson wa s always to costly . A friend of mine David , had taken some classes before and is really very good at it . Anywho , David asked he's teacher if he could teach some of us out-of-shape , cockie types , some Tai-Chi , and wonder of wonder's he agreed . Anywho , it's great for me . I feel better and think it will improve my overall health . We , ( I ) still have a long way to go , but , it will be great !

summer time and the living could be better

.... well we're over half way through the year of 2005 , it's July and it's HOT , but it could be worse , we could be having our transportation system but on edge like London ..... it's so sad that people have to die because of a few F__k Ups that have no value on life . Maybe these bombers should just all get together and have one big party and they all just blow each other up ........ wishful thinking .
I haven't been doing a lot of reading this summer , but one book by : Larry Luxenberg on " Walking the Appalachian Trail " has been taking up a lot of my time . I would like to hike the " A.T." , but right now I could only do it in sections , which is o.k. But , if I did the whole 2,185.5 miles it would probably have to be after retirement ( early I hope ) . If anyone has done the trail in whole or part I'd like to hear from you .
I think this is my longest post , summer is waiting , be safe , God Bless .

Peace Pilgrim General Information Page

Peace Pilgrim General Information Page

.... here's more information on " Peace Pilgrim " .....
 

Peace Pilgrim 1908-1981

" Walk with me , but don't follow me blindly . Hold fast to the truth , not to my garments . My body is merely a clay structure ; today it is here , tomorrow it shall be gone . If you attach yourself to me today , what are you going to do tomorrow when I am not with you ? Attach yourself to God , attach yourself to humanity , only then will you be closer to me . "

Dostoevsky ..... done , for now anyway

.... Finally finished reading " Crime and Punishment " by Fyodor Dostoesky , last weekend . It was a very good read , but slow in some parts , with probably to much detail for my taste . Kind'a long , but hey in the time of his writting , writer's where paid by the word in Russia , so this really made for long novels , like " War and Peace " by Tolstoy . Would like to wait a couple of months and read it again to see if i can find things I missed , which will probably be everything . I have bought other books by Dostoevsky I plan on reading hopefully this year ........ we'll see ..........
