The end of 2016

At the end of 2016, all that I can say that it is a wonderful thing. The wonder is the era in which we find ourselves. It is truly better that all the decades that I have live through. The knowledge that is at our fingertips astounds me. having always loved books and libraries, the fact that I have the worlds knowledge at my finger tips amazes me.

This is not a time to be scared of but rather a time to embrace all that is present. People may be scary but they always have been. The only difference is that we now can shine a light on them and show what is lurking in the shadows. The people of this era will speak up and say "hell no. not on my watch". This is astounding. No longer can evil men do what they have always done.

We are now more accepting of each others foibles. People no longer care about you ethnicity or your orientation, but rather what is in your heart. With the advent of Facebook and other social media outlets, we can easily see how people think and what concerns them. I have connected and re-connected with the most amazing people. I feel that I have got to know them and be accepted by them.

Computer games are an amazing form of entertainment. Humans have always found ways to pass the time of day. I think it is great fun to collect Pokemon, when I am tired of the game i will stop playing. In the past I have collected spoons, stamps, crystal animals and when I have lost interest in these, i have still needed to store and dust them. Our brains are being expanded by being exposed to worlds that we would never have dreamed of seeing. Should the zombie apocalypse ever happen, all the first person shooter games would have prepared us for the onslaught.

I have learned to do things like quilting from interacting with lovely people who have helped me with the knowledge that they have shared. they have been inspiring with sharing the beautiful items they have made.

I have been able to connect with family whilst trying to work out my family tree. I think this more that anything else has made me realize what an honour and privileged it is to live in the here and now. The sadness that I have felt for the human stories that I have interacted with have astounded me. The suffering that the pioneers in the past put up with was horrendous. We are the product of their endevours and not celebrating the here and now is an insult from where we come from.

I love this era and can't wait to see where it leads us. I think our children and grandchildren will live in a time that we can't imagine. Evolution of the mind may occur and we may all get on with each other.

Love to all that I have met and are going to meet, you have made my life an amazing mosaic.

Such Arrogance

I have been inspired to jump onto my little soap box again. This inspirational poster almost made my brain exploded.

This tosser list all of the items that every human on the planet spends their live trying to achieve and this silly person just throws it out there as it is is nothing, as if she is so evolved that this is all that she wants. I hate to think that a woman would be so un aware as it sounds like an extremely spoilt bitch talking.

The fact that it starts with thinking that she did not need much and then goes to list everything that human kind is striving for.

I also love the priority that she puts her needs in.
The clean air and water really got to me. Yes everybody would love to have this. Unfortunately this is not the reality. Maybe this prima dona should go somewhere and see that these items are what joy is made of. I think she should grow up and spend a while in a desert area.

And lastly how could she diminish having somebody to love and be loved in return. This is almost impossible to find and when you do you should count yourself blessed every day in every way. This is not light and fluffy and to be listed with finding a book to entertain yourself with, this is the meaning of life you stupid women!

Even American pursue happiness. It is not a given.

Maybe if you are stupid you can take your coloring in book into the garden and all of the fairies will love you.

Hope that the world can get this huge list of items and never experience anything that is harsh, if not, get through it and just appreciate each of those items whenever you experience them.

I hope each and everyone can be blessed by the items in the list, but when it happens be greateful for each item and never downplay it as your little wishes. While she was about it why doe the list not include a green tea and whatever  spoilt little people enjoy snacking on!

Happy WOmens' day

August is a month in which women are celebrated. Being a women I am all for celebrating us. Unfortunatley it also seems to be a time when companies want to endocrinate women into go for the brass ring within the world of corporations. The sad thing is that women will need to give up so much if they want to climb the corporate ladder. The work/life balance goes out of the window and work will take as much as you can give. WOmen wake up, companies don't give a damn, they truly will just suck you dry and discard the husk of dried out cadaver once you have given them your all. The only reason companies want women in management roles is so that they can tote them out whenever they feel hot water approaching. The other side of the coin is that women can be just as big a$$es as their male counterparts. Just reading this, I realise that men too need to not hand over their souls to profit freaks.

Oh well, work well, love well, live well!

Waste

My current huge bug bear is all of the stupid middle age people who, after realising they are now old uggo's, decide that they have to re-vitalise their lives by suing celebrities 30 years after an incident. These silly women are now over 50 and they are trying to grasp a bit of celebrity for themselves. I think the world that we live in, where narcissistic notoriety can only be gained be rubbing up again a celeb, is totally gross. These stupid women should just pull up their big girl panties and deal with it. Trying to get money out of something that happened so long ago, makes me want to puke. The thing is that we all know that teenagers are revolting and I do believe that history is being re-written by these ladies to make out that they were sweet and innocent. I just call bull-****.

I had to think deep as to why I find the current rash of court cases so upsetting and realised that it is due to the actual horrors that are currently going on. In a world that has babies that are raped. In a world that has children being molested. In a world where rape happens almost constantly. The fact that we waste a single second on some dried up old person's fantasy life is too much.

While we on this , the fact that celebrities and state officials play nicely using rape as a corner stone of getting press coverage is once again a reason to feel bile rising. What a disgusting display. How horrid. How shameful. The world really should condemn your pithiness.

I do not know the solution to this problem. Thinking people would never do this and the animals who do these unspeakable act, will never listen. May they wither.

Be a thinking person!

Balanced?

I have having a philosophical debate as to whether at the end is life it all balances out.

Do our highs and lows cancel each other out?

Are our sorrows and joys given to us in equal portions?

Do we live a linear life as if we knew all of the sorrows and joys that life would throw us at the beginning would we be brave enough to take the journey?

Do each of us have experiences which touch us in a similar way or is it just a totally random crap shoot?

Being an inquisitive person I would love to have the ability to see into the core of people. I often look at people and they look like they are having a golden ride through life. Are they really, or, are they also experiencing devastation to equalise the gifts that have been bestowed on them?

The question is if you have cried your required bucket of tears when you are young, will you have a happy later life, or, is life just a bitch and your heart just gets tougher the more nonsense you go through?

It may be the fact that as you get older, you really appreciate the joyful moments and know that the horrid ones will pass.

I think the biggest life lesson is to take what life throws at you, but, don't take it too seriously. Everything passes. A new phase will eventually happen. And joys and sorrows are both viable human experiences and should be experience with full consciousness and not from inside either a bottle or a pill jar.

Have a glorious day and enjoy.
