Of Sound Mind

Can one Man's mind be adequate to Reason when it comes to Judgment upon ordinary circumstances, like other Rational Men?  Can he uphold the Law that presumably every person who has acquired his ripe old age is of Sound Mind?  What defines a Man being Rational and of Sound Mind?

Perhaps we're living a lie and we're all consumed by complete Insanity!

November 11th

Depending where you are in the World it's a day that marks the anniversary of the end of World War I.  It was; “The War to End All Wars" though unfortunately it didn't.

Today we honor Military Veterans from the past to today. Living or Dead.  All persons who served in the United States Armed Forces.  It coincides with other holidays, including Armistice Day and Remembrance Day.  Take a moment to reflect your Family Members, Friends and/or Loved One who served.

Photographed here is my Great Uncle Robbie who was on Omaha Beach, Normandy France on D-Day, 6, June 1944.  As I vaguely remember his stories when I was a Child, he was one of ten Solders that came home out of his entire Infantry.  Meanwhile in another part of the World my other Great Uncle Paul was M.I.A., captured and placed in a Concentration Camp for quite some time only to show up on his Brother's (my Grandfather's) doorstep a couple years later.  My Father (another Veteran) remembers tales of what he went through.

So, if you see someone today that served or still is active, stop and strike up a conversation, listening and giving them your full attention.  I guarantee you that you'll appreciate what they've done or are doing as well as totally making their day! 

The Little Things

Sometimes it's the little unexpected things that can make a huge difference to one's day!

Eyes on the Road

And as Joyce was freshening her lipstick through the rearview mirror, she hadn't realized the traffic light turned red. Joyce looked up at the last second when it was too late and slammed into a pickup with an extension latter protruding from the bed that went through her windshield.

Lucky for Joyce, the only thing that was hurt was her pride and a run up the side of her nylon... And her lips... They looked fantastic!

One's Life can Change in a Instant

Imagine yourself alone... No family, no spouse. Just you and sixty plus elderly people in their eighties and nineties. You've made friends who offer only little love, but the love doesn't sit well for they are all in the same predicament.

Then, without warning, you are warned that you have only a few hours to collect what little belongings you have and get on a bus that will arrive and take you away. The destination is uncertain and you will be split up, but you will have food and shelter. Imaging how lonely and disorientated you would feel.

These halls have many tales to tell for it only took one Man's actions to have all the residence forced out against their will. Less than ten years later, the rooms of where the elderly stayed still exist with most of their possessions still in them... Furniture, clothes, books and small personal items still remain, proving that they all left in haste.

The reasons are evident and unfortunate how one person can corrupt and change the lives of others in a minute with no remorse only to be self benefited.

Common sense... What you do to others might and probably will happen to you which ultimately decide your fate in future existences. Do unto others as you would want others to do unto you!

She's ever so Loyal to Me

She may not be young and beautiful...  She may not have the Guys stop and ogle as she passes by.  Yet she is most loyal and never complains wherever I take her.

My Ford Pickup (dubbed: Forsakenly Departed) is slowly rusting away and losing weight due to parts falling off now and then, but she always escorts me home with a warm and loving heart!

On Any Given Day

On any given day on Earth the average of 151,600 lives are lost due to various reasons. Yet the topic always remains a taboo as it's encouraged not to be spoken of unless it's imminent.

However, when we witness a love one on the brink between Life and Death… We conspire, seldom letting our loved ones leave in peace, Our selfishness denies their life to enter into the after life, knowing that we will never see them again? Possibly, it is that we don't actually know what happens after they pass.

I often wonder for I was a victim of selfishness nearly a year ago that I wouldn't let a loved one pass on in peace to the other side. Lifeless as he lay, I desperately tried to bring him back knowing his ultimate fate. Was he watching me from another part of the room as I was being selfish, pounding upon his chest in hopes to keep him here on Earth for just a little while longer.

I look back and think… This was my greatest battle with God, playing Tug-of-War with someone else's Life and Soul. Others tell me that I'm a Saint and now have Angels watching over me. Sounds so confusing and incomprehensible that I often dismiss the thought. But it's Inevitable, God always wins!

On any given day on Earth the average of 360,000 lives are born. Positive thinking right? Maybe it's just me being selfish?!

Great Way to Start the Month

What a great way to kick off the month of November! To be Featured on AJ_Graveyards! Always a thrill and an honor to be recognized by this magnificent Group filled with a plethora of talent! Go check them out on IG and see what I mean!

Took this photograph in a small cemetery that didn't seem to have much of anything that really would catch one's eye. However, if you take the time and look deeper, there's always a hidden treasure that will always get you excited and worth the tour.
