Crowds

From personal experience years ago, I cannot deal with Disney crowds today.

Just the facts

Just the Facts 

Scientific authorities, archaeologist, and other theorist have always said that the great pyramids were build by humans, the Egyptians, over 20 years, using the hardest means possible,  or should I say impossible at that time,  and were built using advanced technology and incorporated with advanced knowledge that was not yet known until the 20th century. Yet, they say they were built human hands... Because the only alternative is to concede extraterrestrial involvement...and we couldn't have that.

Now, as  "history is rewritten" time and time again, theories are being disspelled. Go figure...

  

This is retirement

This is Retirement...

At least on certain days. 

Post Covid Shortages

Shortages in a post covid world. 
One would think by now...

Things could be back to normal. 

Shortages in the grocery store. 
Empty shelves.

Now you know...

Join the club. 

Lazy/busy

Lazy... busy?

Lazy doing busy stuff...

Or perhaps 

Busy doing lazy stuff.

Progression... LPs, 45s, 8 track, cassettes, CDs, Mp3s. So... how many times have I paid for the same songs? Now... streaming. Virtually unlimited access to every song since I was born. Unlimited downloads to my phone, and create personal  files... songs, albums, and audiobooks. COLOR ME IMPRESSED. One step for mankind, one giant leap for me. Songs I haven't heard for years.

Working on setting up

Spotify Music.

Now I'm set.

The Old Times

The Good Old Days 

Long before social media. 
When being social was person to person. 

There's a good reason that they are called

The Good Old Days.

QUESTION

THE QUESTION:

MY ANSWER

(Easy)

Freedom

America... freedom of religion.

Just as much as it also means

Freedom from religions.

No one is upset over freedom of religion. 
That's a given. 

The controversy... freedom from religions.

I will defend your freedoms of religions.

BUT WHEN RELIGIONS 

seek to force their beliefs upon others, 

There in lies the controversy. 

Religions defend freedom of religion.

And think that freedom from religion,

Is an act against their freedoms.

Think about that.

They can impose their beliefs Upon others... 

because others do not have freedom from religion.

Namely the abortion issus...

and yes... it is religion based.

This is how religions work. 
They want their freedoms...

While denying others their freedoms.

Politicians / Government  eagerly supports them

because they want their votes. 
Politicians are very good catering to any group...

to get their votes... and stay in  power.

Just like buying the welfare votes.

and Buying the "forgive student debt" votes.

and the special interest group votes.

 

Contradictions

Controversial Contradictions 

There are several perspectives to almost any topic. And you can arrive at different conclusions from each perspective. Most many be correct depending on our lives experiences. Having said that... You may draw your own conclusions ... right or wrong, perhaps some were in between.  Take from it what you will. 

Controversial Social issues... well, they never seem to be resolved. The entire civil war / slavery issue will never go away or be resolved. Going on for 165 years and seemingly intensifying with each passing year. Amazing that those events from 165 years ago can supposedly adversely affect the daily life of people today. As if history could be rewritten and eliminated, and everything could be perfectly alright.

Go figure. 

Just as relevant today is the whole  "black lives matter" movement.

One could argue that... Don't all  lives matter?  Perspective and content. Well, just something to think about. 

Consider, as per statics,  "black lives matter"  is not the belief among the black community at large... since the overwhelming number of black murders are committed by other members of the black community.  But the overall focus of black lives matters particularly focuses on white police officers killing black people, despite very low numbers compared to black on black murders. Just something to think about and make your own conclusions based on your perspective. 

Seems like the focus on the real issue, black on black murders, is never given a second look. Just the prejudice laden issue of white police killing black people... Who are usually being sought in connection of a crime. 

It's difficult to support any issue that centers on a the wrong facts to the issue, viewed from prejudicial point of view, to support their movement. But that's just a different perspective.  Think and believe what you will. But question everything... and not believe what you are being told... Especially by mainstream media. 

prejudice 

  

No...

We all enjoyed Monopoly growing up. 
Then when we got older it became too long a game. 
Then we made up our own rules to speed up the game. 
Now fully into the electronic age...

Monopoly sits on the shelf.

A relic of Years Gone by.

This new version...

No way. 

True

Absolutely Completely True.

And I'm all the more happier for it. 

The good news... The earlier you hit this age, 

and your perspective changes...

You will be much happier. 

What day is it?

What day is it? 

OMG... is this true?

Well... that just knocked down

My happiness level a notch. 

When you have learned

When its easier to just listen...

You will find that you will be much happier. 

One,  you learn more by listening than talking. 

It's a waste of time and effort to tell them something that is contrary to what they believe, they have no need to learn anything because they already know everything.

So you can give the appearance of listening,  be it semi listening at best... And while most of it quickly translates to... "blah, blah, blah"... You can sit back knowing to yourself that you are not going to get sucked into their drama. 

Choices

Life is full of choices.

And to each their own. You have your choices,  and I'll have mine. 
But society is not that black & white. Too many people have their choices, but then also want to tell you that your choices should be the same as theirs. Even to the point of arranging demonstrations and even outright boycotts of business. So what gives them the right to try to push their beliefs on others?

I've even encountered people standing out side events to chant and hand out their flyers supporting their position and condemning your choices. Outside a pig roast and BBQ rib festival they wore pig noses and talked to everyone entering, giving out flyers in protest of the festival, and how eating meat is murder. When trying to walk around them, they move in front of you to persuade you to their way of thinking and their choices.

When I replied "no thank you", they persisted, walking beside me.

Prompting another "no thank you"... Followed by "get away from me".

After enjoying the festival,  and eating my fill... I saved some baby back ribs bones to offer to the protesters when leaving. They seemed to be annoyed... mission accomplished. 

I call my choices... Delicious 😋. 

They have done the same thing at crab house restaurants. 
Not all are forceful & persistent,  but still, annoying. 
Then there's the billboard advertisements supporting their choices. 
Like that really going to persuade people to become vegan?

But it's a nice try. At least I can quietly ignore the billboard without having to be annoyed by somebody in my face.

But... Such is life.  There's always some group trying to impose their choices upon others. I mean... It's America... freedom of choices prevails... interpreted to mean that they have the right to condemn your freedom to enjoy freedom from other people's choices. 

This same concept applies to religions. They have the right to "freedom of religion"... while denying others the "freedom from religions". But that's another story for another time. 

Their choices... not mine.

In response...

 

Don't worry... be happy.

Don't worry... Change... be happy. 

If you must...

If you must be offended,

be offended by things that matter. 
Be offended by things you can change.

Be offended by Politicians.
