If our friendship ended bitterly....
….but months later we “make up” is it possible to regain the trust? Is it possible to not hold a grudge?
Is it pure fantasy? Yes. This I have decided. Grudges are part of the DNA of sad, lonely, and bitter women.
I truly do not hold a grudge, but I reserve the right to walk away from bitter, angry, spiteful people. It’s like an edict screaming out to me: Do it! ...
Hah!
So, it IS a full moon! Damn, that explains everything!

Mom: That's because I am.
Elizabeth: And your hair looks like a bike helmet.
Mom: It does?
Elizabeth: Yeah.
Mom: How old do I look?
Elizabeth: 50

Our system of justice is the best in the world, despite anomalies like the OJ Simpson trial, it is the greatest system on earth, in my opinion.

Recently, the Dalai Lama visited Nova Southeastern University (NSU). I have provided two links below, which are Parts One and Two of a national and local media press conference.
Also, on the press conference page, you’ll find video of the event itself – The Dalai Lama speaking to the large crowd on campus. So, if you’d like to view video of the full event with the NSU audience, that video...
compassion? even when it comes to the Anthony’s? «... →
I have not walked in the Anthony’s shoes, and I am certainly happy about that. Now, I know the Anthony’s are not sympathetic characters as they have been deceptive & illusive, rude, careless, and have, at times, told many differing tales – variations on many untruths, or so it would seem.
my blessed week.....
I just have to share with you how excited I am… I have the extreme good fortune of seeing not only Archbishop Desmond Tutu, but also The Dalai Lama! Both are visiting the campus where I work - Nova Southeastern University.
Tomorrow, the Dalai Lama visits and it’s going to be crazy and exciting as there will be a sea of people on campus. The tickets to the event are totally gone,...
the anthony case and the Lady Justice →
I must admit, since day one I was fascinated with the Casey Anthony case. The cast of characters: like a train wreck! They just stumble on every track they’re on! They crash and burn so often that it was has been difficult for me to resist joking about them, as they are such n’er do wells…….

More outrage from Kathleen Parker of the Washington Post on the hideous, no - the mind altering law that will execute gay persons in Uganda.
Parker points to the fact that due to the “crisis fatigue” of the American people, this story is having the same impact as a “weather report.”
Parker says the corrupt Politicians can bank on the American people to have short, very...

Kathleen Parker - Who will stand against Uganda's... →
I have been hearing about these atrocities in Uganda for a few months now, not in the main stream press so much, but NPR has had a few stories, and now Rachel Maddow, the Goddess that she is, has pointed to this article in today’s Washington Post.
The scary thing about this is there is some evidence that some folks in the American government, or in lofty positions in politics, are well...

no one is alone, not even in the woods
No one here to guide you Now you’re on your own Only me beside you Still you’re not alone No one is alone Truly No one is alone Sometimes people leave you Half-way through the wood Others may deceive you You decide what’s good You decide alone But no one is alone People make mistakes Father’s, Mother’s People make mistakes Holding to their own Thinking...

Marie: light at the end of a tunnel
Me: : yup... i think so too... I can see it,
Me: but I will always have regrets. but I think that at the end of the day, at the end of this long road called life, all things will be forgiven. But I wish we could forgive each other while we're freaking here on this road on the earth, in this life, dammit - not just in the next one, but NOW........
